† I be honest, Olga, I think it’s nineteen pounds well spent: especially as my sight’s at risk, because of the diabetes. I’ve got (thankfully mild) cataracts: so I’m intent on doing what I can to keep them mild. If I can urge you to monitor your sight, Olga, I will!
And you stay well, too!
‡ I’ll try and keep the pot warm, Debbi!
Oh, did I mention the most recent episode of Strange New Worlds? It give Uhura a lot to do: I think Nichelle Nichols would’ve been pleased to see that!
Q5) Bedworth United Cataracts come to all in due course, but yes, keeping them at bay for as long as one can is the best strategy. Not keen on Christmas, so I tend to avoid thinking about it. Although at least, it is an entertaining time at the radio, and I don't have many presents to worry about, so that's not a problem.
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.
† Your Facebook, X/Twitter, Blogger, Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn profile are acceptable. I also like seeing folks webpages.
