Good morning snails.

I have a virus but found out its sleeping and gotta go back in four weeks. Huge improvement, was going every fortnight
Glad you're getting help, Skold.

A fortnight is a unit of time equal to 14 days (2 weeks). The word derives from the Old English: fēowertyne niht, meaning "fourteen nights".[1][2]

Some wages, salaries, and social security benefits are paid on a fortnightly basis;[3] however in North America it is far more common to use the term biweekly.
Fortnight - Wikipedia

That's what I thought it was, but I looked it up to be sure. I like that term better than "biweekly" or the longer "Every other week". We don't use that term much here for some reason. It must have fallen out of favor for what I'm sure are stupid reasons.
