The Pointless Page

I just want to say thanks Brue , so glad you started this post. I get fed up having to work as it is, so it's so nice not to have to hear about it here.Long may this post continue .

Don't know what it's like where you are WN?

It's not too bad Brue. Not a lot of crops out. I tend to get wheezy near Lime trees or Poplars. Flowers don't tend to bother me. I hadn't put in a repeat prescription for over a year as I had a few spare tubes left. Since then we've had new doctors take over from our retired one. I don't think they know their Accident from their Emergency, well the ones I've seen anyway. 

It's always a problem whenever you have to change someone you trust whether it be your doctor or dentist or car mechanic.

 Then there's a notice if wasted appointments where folks don't turn up

Bakers,  the appointment I had today had to be aborted but due to the type of procedure I had to have 2 appointments, the second one 30 minutes after the first to redo the test after having some breathing appartus put on. Well, I left the surgery and then 5 minutes later on an impulse went back and asked whether the second appt had been cancelled by the nurse. It hadn't and the receptionist confirmed I would have had a letter sent for not attending! Wonderful system!

Wherenext hope you mouth is recovering. Yes you couldn't make it up could you? I think your right about A&E 😉. I find our Dr's 'branch' really good and efficient- but the other 'branch' is based in the Uni campus, feels very different and I don't like going there. Never mind over and done with now. I'm sure you're right about not being asthma had similar with my mother a few years back, steroids and all sorts. She still gets a tickle cough in the spring but we live with it 😉.

I tried to tow the caravan today with the motor mover still engaged Now that was pointless!

I get asthma on most sites in France as many have Willow trees among the pitches for shade. I'm allergic to Aspirin and the bark of Willows contains salicin, which was originally used to produce Aspirin.

I also try to avoid clouds of cereal dust from combine harvesters.

My other major irritant is a kitchen cupboard full of rarely used Tupperware type stuff and about a zillion Chinese takeaway trays and lids - none of which seem to fit each other and which come cascading out every time I open the door .

 RIGHT NOW I'm going to empty all of them out and put them in the landfill bin   so it was pretty pointless saving them in the first place........

I'm allergic to a whole host of things and have been most of my life. I was told that it got better as you got older and I suppose it does to some extent. What gets me now is tree pollen and that yellow stuff that seems to be taking over our fields, rape.

I've just collected a shipping order from the chemist, sodium chromoglycate drops for itchy eyes, a nasal spray and a new supply of asthma inhalers.

as long as I remember to use them all it's not too bad🤞

Does it b****r it up? Have still got the push and pull type of van, Mrs.WN having muscles on her eyelids!

no, its just stops you dead, you really can't move, well I suppose you could if you applied enough revs!

It makes quite a racket ....... apparently 

and not even 200+ horses would reverse my last caravan with the mover still engaged
