Sweetheart, I am ok thank you 😘 Am over the problem from yesterday 👍 Only one day left before I have to go back to work, which is stressing me out quite a lot, but I’m sure it will be fine (not!). I wish I could afford to retire right now, I love being at home and safe! I haven’t been bored even once!! How are you today Barry? Have you been out on the streets? 😂 Or is it grandad day? I am waiting on photos from Welsh Wales from Skye! Xx

I have done nothing today my darling, just hiding out of the way!. Have I got it wrong or do you work at a supermarket ?, if so it would be a bit stressing, just take a deep breath and clear your mind, I know you are strong and will be ok!.

Skye " I get eaten by mozzies and so does Doidy (dad!) but they don't like Mama" Me: "Why do you think that is Skye?" "They don't like Mama's makeup"!! Fact is she hardly ever wears makeup!!

Re work: Thanks, yes I am a Tesco checkout chick! Am unsure as to what exactly is "Covid Safe"? I wonder about air con, as it recirculates used air? I am a bit freaked out when you consider that the main bulk of new outbreaks in the States is in the "Sunshine States" and then we have Melbourne, both of which are hugely reliant on air con Also at the very beginning of it all, there were customers in a restaurant who were seemingly infected because they were seated beside an aircon vent? All a little unsettling! If I feel too bad, I do have the option of taking a "lifestyle break", But that would be unpaid. No matter! I will be fine! xx

I always loved Alex Higgins, he was genius! But sadly, genius is often close to madness or self destruct. Such a wasted (literally!) talent . xx

Yes he got Done, for 'Relieving Himself', in a plant pot- at the Crucible Theatre😊🙄.

The End of his life, was 'Tragic'.... Dying, from Throat Cancer and 'Hustling' for a 'Frame of Snooker' win or loose- in Northern clubs.

A true Talent, truly 'Missed'.

.? Billiard table.

Dear Tudee,

Yes Billiards too, without Doubt, after all the Governing Body is the 'World Professional Billiards And Snooker Association'. So, I'm quite sure, that Higgins would have know this game- though I'm not sure if he actually Played it much.

Strangely you Don't often, if ever, see 'Televised' Billiards- in the same way you Do see Tennis but rarely Volleyball. You Can, fairly easily see American 'Baseball' but again, very rarely see British 'Rounders'. I have a Neighbour (Neighbor), who not only Watches, but actually 'understands' American Football..... (there are NOT many, outside the USA, who do that!)

There are some, very Interesting, First Round Matches happening- in the World Snooker Championship- right now. It is always good, to see, New Blood coming into the Game and from 'new' places too.

Rest In Peace Alex, we DO 'miss' you.

That’s true Andrew, we see the most popular versions of the sports, I prefer watching billiards, it’s more refined ,more thought thro and leisurely, Alex certainly wasn’t made for that game, !! I believe he came from my late husbands city Belfast, he was a good watch and very entertaining, if not driven.R.I.P. Alex thanks for the fun
