Third cuppa

Today I'm off to a funeral.  Sister of a family friend.

Addenda:

 Mrs Dex got the wrong time and we mingled outside with some bereaved folk for a completely different person, wondering why we didn't recognise anyone.  Am now sat in the car waiting for the correct one😬

Seems like the 'Fools and Horses' episode!

Batten down the hatches.. 

pelting with rain, forecast to last into next week.

Expected a phone appointment from surgery this morning..
I had a call from someone asking if my home was insulated..
A call from someone telling me that money had been taken from my account..
No surgery call..

Just another happy day in Paradise ...

OH was told he needs another scan. He's been waiting to hear. He spoke to the receptionist at the GPs after his latest blood🩸 test, only to find out that its up to him to book it!  Eventually got through to the right department today (14th in queue yesterday) and arranged it.  Not the NHS as it once was. 😐

My call was about diabetes.. and results.. I don't even have diabetes.. Just on the borderline..
Fortunately nothing serious.. But it could have been..
It seems to be up to patients to find out what is happening concerning their treatment..

Mac that is plain ridiculous.

A couple of years back after my annual blood test (which they ignored the PSA test from) I got a letter saying I was borderline diabetic and included a link. I've heard nothing since apart from the emergency MRI as they did eventually spot the PSA result. I'm assuming they either only check one thing each year or the borderline diabetes has cured itself.

I got a notification that this year's review will be a phone call from the pharmacist. I guess she'll listen to me blow to guess if the asthma treatment is right. Not sure how she'll test the blood pressure over the phone or even if they'll be wanting a blood test.

The sooner we're fertilising the grass at the crem the sooner they can cope with all the poor immigrants.

first cuppa

Teeming down here. 💦💦

still raining. Much of the yard is under a couple of inches of water and the wind was blowing the wheelie bin around as though it was a cardboard box - oh it virtually empty the other one has a fair amount in it and simply got blown over

All calm here... at the moment.

just had a brief power cut - hope there's no more. At least I have a gas fire if needed and some battery lamps

Until they ban bottled gas as well as shutting down the grid.
