Neighbours are already either up and drinking or haven't stopped. Given I heard them at 2am but they were quiet by 6am, I suspect they at least had a disco nap.

I went out and checked the yellow sticky traps. They got a few but the whiteflies were mostly clustered underneath the leaves and the traps had caught multiple long legged fliesโฆ aka the beneficial insects that eat the aphids. Plus one tiny katydid. They might have got a weird kind of ladybird yesterday (which I freed).
Not happy Jan. Iโve taken them down and wonโt be using them anymore.
It was an aph-ocalypse under there on the worst plant so I ended up using a strong solution of natural dish soap to douse and scrub wherever they were. It ended up leaving a thin wet lather of detergent behind which might harm the plants and encourage mildew (already an issue) but is hopefully insecticidal. Fingers crossed it doesnโt affect the good bugs.
Melbcat wasnโt impressed that I was out there for ages while she had to stay inside, so sheโs off in her bed. Itโs a shame. She could have sat with me or sunbathed. But I need her to accept staying a fully indoor kitty and not expect to be let out.
My gum near the problem tooth is looking red and sore so I think thereโs a problem again. Hopefully only a minor infection from a floss nick but Iโll have to get that sorted between everything else going on.
Tis a bit cool. Needed to chuck a blanket over the doona. Winter doona is going onto the bed on the next linen wash day.

Goodnight team. I hope I sleep as well as last night.
Had a late & boozy one yesterday and no energy for cooking anything so took myself out to a sit-down brunch for the first time in a while. I remember why I donโt do this anymore. So expensive and small servings. At least the coffee slapped, Iโm feeling human again.
