Had a plumber fix my systern yesterday ,having reported it to the manager of where I live the previous afternoon as it had been dripping .
Health wise OK , take care,
Mick

Good morning Mick and all from Cloudy Chambers northwest coast.
After setting out in fog yesterday with DD, we drove into Cheshire and it brightened up. It was interesting to see my old caravan site, now with smart statics and lovely to enjoy a pub lunch in the countryside.
Then a visit to an excellent farm shop with donkeys outside to stock up with some good food.

At home in the evening, my DD, an excellent PA, put my RAC app on my phone, checked my senior railcard was on its way and sent an email to Germany in reply to their communications. I’m due payments from an opera film I participated in years ago.
She leaves for the south today and is such a blessing to me.

Thoughts to madeleine and all🌺

Good morning or rather Ratty morning!
The day has joyfully started with a big argument about my husband's 'so - called friend'! Hummmm.
He likes to walk with her when taking the dog out & I don't trust him or the dog for that matter! 🤔

First thank you all for your good wishes for yesterday. Saw my cardiologist. Only slight furring in my right artery thats why I didn't need a stent . Because of no obstacles blocking my heart the consultant could have a good look inside my heart . No sign of heart attack. It seems Torponin levels can rise if you have a stroke. To prevent anymore furring going to put me on a low dose of statin . And discharged me back to my GP care. He thinks I had a mini stroke TIA. So is referring me to a neurologist who deals with strokes. And he hopes I don't have to wait to long for an appointment. Means a MRI on my brain while I don't like but always have them done . Last time I had one on my brain was 2017 . Last time was on my heart. But they are a brilliant tool for detecting the small anomalies . But I am not worried my brother has permanent AF and had 2 TIA's. I have PAF and small hole in the side of my heart I was born with.

Just know next time if I get a headache that wouldn't go with painkillers and pain in the side of my neck get to A&E.

Very wet here today but not going anywhere . So will get on with my cross stitch as already done all my jobs for the day.
