Chinese Health Balls

...well that is what they are called.

A friend loaned them to Ian to "play" with while he is recuperating and as the instructions say.."they can be used by aging people to take regular exercise for prevention and treatment of disease"!

Actually they have a nice melodious sound when they are rotated and he does find them quite soothing....if he gets a bit bored, "he just plays with his balls!"

It's been an odd day with a real warm sunny period this morning which got me motivated to start washing the outside of the house and the windows, but then it turned very dark, got colder and a few showers. So the remainder of the house can wait until tomorrow.
