What are you all up to

Hope that you get it in time to get away as planned, AD.

Sitting  here  with  sore  fingers  from  scratching  my  head  !!

Got  a  Letter  from  surgery  today  telling  me  to  make  appointment  to  hear  the  ( dodgy )  result  of  recent  thyroid  bloods,  and  probably  get  an  increased / altered  medication.

Would  not  have  been  concerned  too  much,  but  lower  down  the  page  was  a  request  to  TEXT  IN  my  Name,  D -O -B,  &  Latest  mobile  phone  number.  Dammit  they  addressed  the  letter  to  me,  they  send  reminders  to  me  by  text  &  they  accept  Medication  Requests  by  e-mail  from  me  every  month.  Now  I'm  wondering  if  the  Doc's  have  organised  a  contract  for  technical  electronic  works  update  with  some  ex-C&MC  IT chappies 

It does upset me, having to type all this with sore splintered fingers  !

There is a nice circular walk from Falling Foss following the river to May Beck and back via the forest . We did it from the club's NYM Site.

Enjoy the rest of your time there, we will be back that way in October all being well

Thanks, Helen, we've done that walk too when we were at NYM, but the last time the bridge was down so we couldn't do the full circuit.

We did an interesting walk this afternoon from Sandsend, up through the Mulgrave Estate to the Old Castle. I think that one could make a full day's walk out of it up to Motte and beyond.

Are you absolutely sure that it's from your surgery Brian? Best to double check before sending personal details.

B2, Good to hear that OH has managed to get out of bed, be it only for a short while.

Can you not get a weekly car pass at the hospital? They do one at ours and it's less than they charge for 3 days separately.

.

Don't seemed to have stopped but also don't seem to have achieved a great deal. Caravan partly packed, shopping done but seemed to have forgotten some of it.

Anyway off out for lunch tomorrow seeing my cousin and her husband. Wondered what the pub would have said if we would have arrived with the caravan on the back and just carried on to the Lakes from there? Too late to ring them now.

Oneputt, we ALL had their energy when we were their age. My mother used to threaten me with nailing my feet to the floor to stop me wandering. How often did we get called in at night when it really was too dark. Still playing. Those were the days. I miss being 30.

It has been a busy week so far, monday car for MOT and service 3hrs needed , 0830 start,  it is a week since op?,no auto loan car when got there,so would it be ok to just do MOT today? then Branch manager said to use his automatic for the day,and i thought our car was full of toys,so service to be done,

Call from garage at 1400 to say found that front discs and pads very near worn out,(towing over 2000 miles in uk last year did not help)more expence

Picked car up at 1640 much more than first thought on credit card

Tuesday about 0900 call from garage manger to admit they had overcharged me and could i come over as they would give me a refund  so i got £185 back and some "goodies" for my "understanding,

Today it was to club site storage to open fridge door (it was ok),and some shopping at Aldi

One thing i have noticed is how tired  the last couple of days has made me,,not felt when just walking Rosa did not seem to have the same effect

B2 i was not expecting stents to be required when i had my angiogram,  so your OH not having to have any bypasses is a better outcome for you i am sure, and it will be just time before he is home best wishes

 NTH- we really hope you enjoy New Willow Cottage. It's a stunning CL and so pretty with the small lake. We left a review if you haven't already seen it. If you want any more info about the area, just ask.

ADD, sorry about the delay in saying thanks for the info. If there are any places close by that you think that we'd be interested in please point me in the right direction. Not really interested in towns but beaches, historic houses, woodland and any good places to walk Flyte are the sort of thing.

You will not be as long as us, so maybe not such a big problem.  With a 7.95m van, we are about 12.75m overall.

Quite a long time before last year since we were in Whitby, that tIme we stayed in a friend's holiday home in Robin Hoods Bay.  We thought the town had gone slightly downhill, and the parking is very difficult.  We used the P&R despite having to pay, and had a nice day in town, it was busy as it was early July.

Some great Fish and Chips  places!

Sorry to hear that B2, stroke or heart attack while on the table seems to be one of the bigger risks.  Not sure whether the use, of not, of the bypass machine is significant, I was on the machine.  Apparently the moment when they restart the heart is a bit worrying!

But it sounds like he is doing well despite that, so the prognosis is presumably good.  His recovery will just take a bit longer.

Please give him my best wishes, and look after yourself too.
