Wednesday the 1st of January 2025 sees me waking late after my Hootenanny indulgences of champagne and annual dose of Ruby Turner. I finally get up to make warm drinks for my partner and myself having made no new year resolutions at all. A very late breakfast ensues after which I decide to play with my new drone. After watching the manufactures video during which they used phases like “push forward make it go upwardly” and ” pull back make it go downwardly” I finally get the thing on indoor mode and ready to go, although it was not immediately quite clear how one started and stopped it but I guessed that unlocking it was a good bet, here is what happened.

Yes it is hilarious, my view is that it was the Chinese trying to kill me and that I had had a lucky escape. I’ve decided to wait until I can complete the outdoor configuration before taking the joy sticks of fate in to my hands again in calm weather. So having safely turned it off I went back to less dangerous things like reading and drafting the blog.

The day went down hill with a roaring headache, so it was paracetamol and sleep for me until the evening when football, Vera and night meds came around and I fled to bed desperate to sleep. This is not an auspicious start to 2025, I think I may have rushed at it a bit to quickly so tomorrow I hope to be more measured.
