Another sleepless night.
It's been an average of 2 hours sleep a night for the past 10 days or so.
Hopefully it improves.
CBD hasn't done too much at this point.
Try it as a tincture. If you haven't yet.
 
Can you share the recipe; I have à tree full of lemons, please.

4 cups sugar
1L Boiling Water
1L Cold Water
zest of 3-4 Lemons
juice of 3-4 Lemons
1 Tablespoon (15ml) Cream of Tartar (Kremetart)
10g (1 sachet) of activated yeast.

Add the sugar to the boiling water and stir until it is dissolved. Add the lemon zest, juice, cold water, Cream of Tartar and yeast. stir well. decant into bottles. keep open and at room temperature for 3 hours. close and refrigerate.

Remember to add yeast last, too hot water can kill the yeast.

I received the masks which I had ordered from Gadget Fundi today. It took much longer than deliveries from Durban usually do, The parcel was collected on Friday 3 April and under normal circumstances I would have received it on Monday 6 April, or possibly Wed. 8 April, since TCG doesn't deliver here every day.

In fact, I phone TCG yesterday to enquire as tracking didn't go further than showing that it had been collected. They explained that flights from Durban had been delayed. I wonder if it was because of the repatriation of tourists?

Anyway, I received it and it was clearly marked as Medical Supplies.
