27th January, 2020.
There’s time I could kick the NHS, as much as I think it’s a wonderful basic thing.
Right now … ?
I’ve got blocked ears: giving me a mild, but distracting, case of earache.
All it would take to solve it … ?
Is a good old fashioned syringing … except, of course, the doctor’s clinics in our area have stopped doing them.
So my only possibly option is to go private …
Except I haven’t got the cash for it.
Quite what I’m supposed to do, there, I don’t know …
The important question, though … ?
Nope!

Episode 4 — Prime Crew — opens straight after the memorial of Patty Doyle (Cass Buggé): showing us her fellow trainees coming back to base after the funeral.
With Tracey (Sarah Jones) being struck hardest: it had been her in the rest vehicle, just before the explosion that killed Patty.
The bad news … ? The bad news — and the heavy political pressure — has not stopped NASA from carrying on training the remaining female astronauts.
Nor does it stop Deke Slayton (Chris Bauer) from taking Gordo (Michael Dorman) off of the upcoming Apollo 15 mission.
And replacing him with the rumbustious Molly Cobb (Sonya Walger).
Things … ?
Could get explosive …
~≈¥≈~
Now … am I in a funny mood … ?
Yes: I am.
That earache is doing nothing for me, frankly.
But … ?
That’s not stopped me fro enjoying a good episode.
It does strike me that Prime Crew is more of a politically driven episode: than one that focuses on politics, and hints at buried issues, rather than heading for the skies …
Something that thankfully, is remedied by the end of the episode.
Frankly?
I’m looking forward to episode 5.

Post a Comment
I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
