Today was a fasting day ... But as you may have seen in my Dad's blog (Dedalus) I am suffering from a tooth infection which requires antibiotics. As you have to eat when you take antibiotics my fasting day was incomplete.
Semi-fasting day:
Semi-fasting day:
- Petit déjeuner: Oeuf poché et toast
- Déjeuner: Pas de d'antibiotiques à prendre
- Diner: Tomate et cottage cheese
Winter is finally upon us. The days are shorter, the temperature has dropped and the rain has arrived which allows me to talk about a little know urban health hazard: Umbrellas! I cannot understand why umbrellas are still legal when they both impractical and dangerous. As soon as it starts to rain pedestrians open their umbrellas thus producing a forest of hazardous ribs situated exactly at eye level for someone who happens to be 6'2". It's a miracle that I still have the full use of both my eyes. In addition to the public safety aspect, why would you want to lug around a cumbersome piece of equipment, on the off chance that it might rain, when you could much more easily carry a foldable rain hat that would fit in a bag or coat pocket. In view of the upcoming Brexit and considering the umbrella is a quintessential British product I think we should ban all sale of umbrellas in Europe on national security grounds.
