Never

 This morning there is a problem with the freezing of the legs. They do not really freeze, they just start feelling uncomfortably cold. Covering them in an extra blanket helps, but still there is the feeling of an unnatural chill. Why this happens has never really been explained by the dear doctors. Perhaps it is some form of infection. Or else the circulation has gone to pot.

It was severe today, return to bed, and cover the legs with an extra blanket. Perhaps the cold is an illusion, but the blanket is moral support. As with Linus of Charilie Brown fame.

During today spend time in the building supplieers. Spend most of the time there searching for things, such as fittings for joining cables. Find them eventually in the motor department, not the electrical section. In the tools section ask a woman who is loading the shelves where such things are to be found. She says that they are upstairs in the electrical department. Go upstairs and ask there. She says that they are not there but in the tools department.

Leave the place, buy the cable shoes and two files. At the exit to the store find that they expect you to scan the items yourself, and pay by card. Do all of this, and then find that the store may not be left before the receipt has been shown at the door. The doors to freedom will not open until the docket has been scanned.

Resolve never to go to that shop again. The unfriendliness  of the security person was palpable.
