Guy Fawkes night again…seems like it was only a couple of
weeks ago that I was writing about it .
Back at home in New Zealand the public display would have
been deferred until the following weekend…and here in England?
Why we’ve always had it on the day so of course we will do
it on the day. Our first year living
where we do we were nicely entertained by all the fireworks going off for as
far as we could see. The man and I live on the fifth floor and our view is
pretty extensive. Last year it was a bit less and this year the amount is
considerably less again.
Obviously a reflection of a reduction in peoples disposable
income.
Yesterday when I got to work it was to the news that our vaccine
fridge had gone haywire and was doing the opposite thing to what it should have
been. Not good that as vaccines have to be stored in temperatures between 2 and
8 degrees. And ours was reading 24!! As we didn’t know how long it had been
malfunctioning we had to throw out a lot of vaccines.
There’s a nationwide shortage of yellow fever and typhoid
vaccines and I might not be able to order any more.
But let’s not think about tit too much when there re
fireworks happening at he park and we
can see them from our lounge window.
