The boring thread.....

I didn't bother looking out - I just guessed it would be. Super day for sunshine yesterday though even if a bit nippy.

It started raining during the night here,  and is still raining now.  It's forecast for most of this week again too.

I feel sorry for all the people flooded,  because even when it clears up,  I doubt they will be able to get any insurance again. 

On the plus side - I can't see us getting a hose pipe ban this summer. 

This flood line site can be worth taking a look at for your area:

Our local River Mole gets overwhelmed and floods the surrounding fields..
This happens most years.. We get some roads that have excess water from the fields..
As far as I know we do not have any great problems..
It must be horrible having water coming into your home..

The sun is out...

I have got my exercise class shortly,  and then a hospital appointment at ENT this afternoon.
I don't hold out much hope of getting a diagnosis out of them about my one-sided deafness and dizzy spells,   I've seen them enough times already.   They even sent me someone else's scan results last week!  Nobody seems to care like they used to. 

On a cheerier note,  the sun is out - for a while at least.

Going to take the car for a ride...

Morning all.   Bright and sunny,  but icy cold wind.  
I just went out to feed the garden birds and my thermometer was still on freezing point.
Car all iced up too.

Just about to have a shower before I go off to a Physio appointment,  see if he can get this rotator cuff  (shoulder)  moving easier without hurting so much.
Tat-ar for now.

Another day of sunshine.. Might pop out in the garden later.. just to tidy up.. 
I shall certainly go for a walk..

Bright and sunny but cold out, I am told

T'was a lovely sunny day here
An old friend has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease, I didn't know much about it, apart from Stephen Hawkins had it.  It certainly is a dreadful illness.
Nigel's programme tonight on GB News is coming from Chagos, I think that's what  I heard !

That's sad about your friend, Alex.  
So sorry.

What a busy day it was.
First I went to the Physio,  very nice bloke he was too.
A man who actually listens  to women is a novelty for a start.   
He used this electric massager thing on my shoulder, and one thigh bone,  and it was really good.

Then I treated myself to a sausage sandwich with brown sauce for my lunch at Waitrose cafe.
When I got back home, I took the dogs down the park,  far too muddy over the fields.

I just got home in time to get out again to a GP appointment. 

Later on,  I saw I had an email from the company still pursuing that bloke who hit my car - last September!
It is still dragging on,  and they are still saying I might need a solicitor!!
So I phoned them and had a right old moan and told them I don't need a solicitor as I have done nothing wrong and I am fed up with this dragging on with no resolution! 

While I was in the mood,  I then phoned Virgin about my broadband still  playing up,  and I intended asking them for an engineer to come now.    However, they said they would send me a brand new router instead,  and it would arrive in a day or two.   I have to then send the old one back to them. 

I thought tomorrow I would be free,  but a friend phoned me tonight, and  her car has conked out so could I take her to a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning, so I will gladly do that as I know she is very poorly.

When I have done that I  also need to go to my Vet's to collect some tablets for Liffey.   

And that's about it then!   

*  Ooh,  no its not!   I forgot something else I did.
We are all aware of scam emails I am sure,  but today I had a bad one.
It was some foreign bloke with a gobble-de-gook email address,  trying to flog knives!!!
He said they were kitchen knives,  but it really felt bad somehow,  and potentially serious I thought.
Kids could received that  for all I know.

So I sent the whole thing to the government phishing site and let them deal with it.   I also rang the local cops and told them and gave them his email address too.

Busy old day it was.

Are you going to be able to set that new router up? IMO its not likely to make much difference but good luck.

Doctors.. blood tests... Cold but no rain..
