Tonight, I will be grateful when I've done my recitation then life can return to normal, I will be able to sleep without the lines running thru my mind.
So I got a nightshirt from E-bay costing £10 and the local alterations and repair shop, made me a wee Willie Winkie nightcap, so this night is formal and I have been offered the facilities of the disabled toilet to change from kilt to nightwear. But believe me, bold John Barleycorn will play an important part in me appearing in a nightshirt which just goes down below the knees.
So lets hope ' the Lord will remember me and mine with mercies temporal and divine' plus a good memory
Amen, Amen! 
Seriously, all the best to you!
