Taking five while the Olympics are on

Snow and ice on the TV and pretty chilly here.  Team GB not doing so well as expected in the Olympics,   Bit of a big upset with Elise Christie basically crashing out in all her races.  But great respect for the skiers, snowboarders etc for their either sheer lunacy or bravery in their respective events.    Curling very much like chess, but very skilful indeed,  team GB ladies on the ice later today.
Busy Masonic week,  five days and out five nights, OES, Blues, RA.   Just no time to get bored.  been to Edinburgh, Bonnyrigg , Tranent Andy tonight  Loanhead,   Join the Masons Andy see the world 🌎.
Must have a rant again about the state of the roads , bloody shocking, and at every turn there are roadworks as the Council appears to be using up budgets before the end of the financial year.   Got hot under the collar yesterday with these idle buggers sitting in their vans at the roadworks, controlling the traffic lights as part of the health and safety guidelines,   One sleepin*, one on his mobile and queues in all directions. A disgrace, I wonder how much the tax payers are paying for these so called safety features , probably introduced by some baldy headed bureaucrat with nothing better to do with their time, and being paid to be stupid.

I gather that Donald Fuck, great white leader of the USA is still on the fence with regard to the gun crime,  he will be waiting for the next world disaster to deflect from his domestic problems.

No point in going into Edinburgh before long, will need a bank loan to pay the parking charges.  I Am sure the out of town shopping centres are delighted that the local population are being kept out the town which will soon be the reserve of tourists, beggars and Eastern European pickpockets.
