by norman normington 19 days agoFriday morning, last day of the last week of my time off sick, didn't get a huge amount of writing done as I intended. I fully expected to be sitting around doing nowt! ( I had my carpal tunnel released in my wrist) but after a day or two it wasn't too bad and so I did the things I wasn't going to do!

It's never sounded very appetising to me but I think it's the idea of cold pickled fish in the snow rather than the reality!
