Today I walked to the shop for the first time in two weeks after an attack of vestibular hypofunction. I've been more or less housebound.

Well done. A friend of mine had an inner ear infection and it took her quite a while just to be coaxed up off the floor, which seemed like the safest place at the time.

Day 8 of gerbil-sitting and the aging, ailing gerbil is perky, alert and putting weight back on. Still got 7 days, so I'm not counting my rodents yet but I am less nervous.

I've become quite invested in our old Gerbil updates. I'm rooting for a win!

Coincidentally, after I posted that, there was a lot of squeaking and foot drumming from the cage, all coming from the previously ailing gerbil. I Googled it and it said this was a sign of excitement or if they were scared or wanted to mate. I looked in and he was humping the life out of his (surprised) gerbil friend (same sex). So he's not just recovered but he's become a sexual predator. The wonders of sunflower seeds.

At this rate, I'm starting to believe you're operating some wonder recovery facility. Maybe this is what you were put on this earth to do haha.

The gerbil healer? I have The Touch. Although I am putting it down to the sunflower seeds - it's like some kind of gerbil panacea and Viagra all in one. I'm afraid to try them.

I found a double conker on my walk today.

Double conkers are a myth!
