THE BATTLE OF VELLA GULF:
Six USN destroyers intercept four IJN destroyers transporting reinforcements and supplies to Kolombangara Island. In the resulting exchange of torpedoes, Kawakaze, Hagikaze and Arashi are sunk, and 1500 troops and sailors are killed. 300 surviving Japanese troops are landed on the island. As a consequence of this American victory, Kolombagara Island can no longer be re-supplied.

3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
Clearly the ability to get stuff done for the remainder of August is going to be limited by the attention-hungry (and horny!) Missus. Well the bottom line is that I'm her carer and she is my priority. With Son off to see some mates yesterday, full advantage was taken to meet Missus' currently voracious appetite. Son of course by his utter disgust and disapproval of his parents being sexually active has only made it "forbidden fruit" and therefore every advantage is taken of him having his back turned.

I have come to acceptance of the fact that I can only fulfil my physical role with chemical assistance. However, that only serves to put us on an equal footing as Missus needs chemical assistance to make her Schizophrenia manageable. Whereas her medication is free on the NHS however, mine is not! I am therefore using them as sparingly as possible. One tablet will keep me virile for the following two days. I also don't need one if there's a few days when there's no available privacy or opportunity. 

Though I'm not getting a great deal done this Summer, my Practice is quiet and money is tight, life at home is idyllic, so I have no complaints to the Universe whatsoever.
