Good Morning Everyone,
A dark but dry start does not feel as cold as previous morning.
Yesterdays iron infusion went OK roughly 30 minutes on a drip , I think they are going to notify my Doctor as to follow ups if not tablets.
Today this afternoon a preop assessment at the Churchill in Oxford , brother taking me in.
Take Care ,
Mick

Baggs - no words, so upset for you.
Thinking of your family member baubles in such a dark place.

Good morning from a bright Durham. Friend’s 67th birthday today, so I’m taking her out for lunch to a local garden centre, then meeting another friend later, who only has a few hours this week to spare.
Another friend’s husband went through his big operation satisfactorily yesterday, but now she is feeling under the weather and not sure that she should be visiting him yet - that gives me time to catch my breath, as I’d offered to take her.
DD2 still reeling from the sudden loss of her beloved pet - after 13 years, they’re family?
Estate agent phoned yesterday to say that a load of rubbish has been flytipped outside the house I have for sale. Technically speaking that area doesn’t belong to my house but I shall have to drive over at some point and see what’s going on.
However this is all trivial compared to the devastating news that Baubles and Baggs are having to cope with. Both are in my thoughts.

I have just read Bagg’s very sad news. My heart goes out to her and her daughter.

Good morning Mick and everyone. A cold rainy morning in this corner of Lancashire. Hope all goes well today Mick

Not much planned for today. I’m suffering from an erythema outbreak on my hands. I had Stevens Johnson Syndrome a couple of years ago and was very ill so anxious to avoid a repeat. It’s difficult to do much with my hands covered in ointment and wearing gloves, but it is responding to the treatment. I’ve learned that once you’ve had it there’s a risk it will recur. So it will be a little housework, exercises and Gaelic studies. Whatever I can manage.

Sending my deepest condolences to Baggs after yesterday’s horrific news ?

Apologies if I’ve missed anything, using the iPad is difficult.

Have the best day you can all.

Good morning all from cloudy Harrogate
I’m getting on with this post before I have any more in teruptions Glad appointment no one is over Mick good luck with the 2nd.
Have to mention Urms I do look forward to Matt, thank you!
I hope you soon feel better Kittylester now your GP knows what your problem is.
Yesterday in Edinburgh turned out to be very expensive. Finally got in after 1 pm. Tried to find the information kiosk to find out about buses to The modern galllery 2, but it wasn’t there! Went to the portrait gallery because we had been informed there was a circular bus round the galleries. That stopped years ago! No one knew which bus we get and we’re from!! We got a taxi only to find the gallery was closed!!!!!! So just went across the road to The Gallery of
modern art. They didn’t realise the website did not advise the gallery was closed! We had lunch then at the pictures on the 2nd floor and found them quite infantile. Found the bus back was hourly, so got a taxi back. I enjoyed the first class train journey both ways that I’d treated myself to. It was about meeting my friend which I did do. We did have a few giggles.
Have the best day possible folks
