Hi Rufus2 I had long waits at hospital yesterday too. However, the Covid precautions were strictly and sensibly adhered to. New hip booked for July. Spent this morning rearranging various bookings as a result. Oh well.
Lunch out at the weekend with the family is something to really look forward to. I love looking at menus online and choosing what I would have so I'm all decided for the lunch outing. Yum.

Yes Rufus lots of deletions, dunno what they were about, I was too late to read them but never mind all reported by various people on behalf of us all.

Very cold here today, heating back on for a while !

Spoke to NZ rellies last night, apparantly lots of frost there but like us no rain atm.
Hope your hospital appointment was OK when you were finally seen by the specialist.

Take care
Cheers ????????

Hi Rufus, shared pen, not good, I carry my own. Big game then...unfortunately it’s not live on Sky, boo. Looks like Mbappe is in the PSG squad.
We’re going out for dinner, literally, out side and as it’s still chilly, 11deg now, it’ll be coats, scarves and gloves. Most importantly it has rained! Hurray, for at least two hours, but we need more, probably when we’re out side later!
Take care ?

Another lovely day, although it chills off once that sun dips behind the roof’
Wasn’t a good start to the day. A 9.45 appointment with specialist turned into a 10.45 one. Very annoying to watch three other patients called in, separately, whilst waiting without being told what’s going on; that’s a minimum of 20 minutes times three.
Of course she had been called out to an emergency at her other hospital where I’d been a patient recently. No room for argument there, not that I ever would!

During my wait I noticed that patients had to sign the book on arrival as part of the contacting.tracing procedure, rub alcohol over their hands and wear a face mask, but no temperatures were being taken and no questions about having been overseas.
And everyone used the same one- and- only pen which was nailed to the desk! Very slack for a hospital
I wasn’t saying anything; too busy watching out for queue jumpers! hmm

Some very good TV docos again this evening; Tony Robinson all about war-time Britain, German occupation of the Channel Isles; the Bethnal Green tube station tragedy; rationing, evacuations etc etc! What would it be like now if Germans had crossed the Channel
Now 80 years on, sabre rattlers here are at it because of fears of China.

All the threads seem dead this evening! Apart from a heap of deletions on Good Morning! sad
Good Health wine [wine wine
