Rare P&O SUE Posted February 6, 2021 #15177 Share Posted February 6, 2021 My GP phoned me late afternoon, I was very surprised to hear from him. He said he was doing an audit of heart patients and wanted to check I was taking my daily aspirin! It’s not on my prescription anymore, I hadn’t noticed! The first time I took my prescription to the chemist they advised me it was much cheaper to buy it - I think it’s 79p instead of the £8+ prescriptions are now! He said he thought I probably bought it but wanted to check.I thanked him for checking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mam and dad stayed there a couple of years then moved to Farringdon a new council estate that had just been built in 1958 I hope everyone is pleasant today at the vaccine centre. 5°C here with rain then snow forecast. Pauline just put my first 3 drops in my eye this morning and now she has just brought me my breakfast porridge in bed. Take care and stay safe. Graham x.

davecttr Posted February 6, 2021 #15186 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Nice misty walk this morning and I saw my first Goldcrest, about 2 feet away, amazing little bird and according to my bird book Europe's smallest bird. 🙂 Then the bad bit my mouse stopped scrolling, multiple swearing etc etc and I eventually found my spare one, why is it I put these things in a safe place and promptly forget where I put them 😵 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my mouse stop working a couple of times in the last month ,all I did was unplug it and on reconnection it was fine again. I put it down to some update issue .

Yes, a USB optical and I ranted about microsoft playing their funny games. The replacement is a USB optical as well and works just fine, thinks, I might invest some of the vast fortune accrued by not cruising in another spare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they’re covered in snow tomorrow 😞 How lovely. They seem to appear earlier every year.

Nice breakfast Bob .Same as you I used to be first up 4am for work . The trouble was when on holiday I could be found roaming the cruise ships at 5am filming them as it came natural to wake up at that time . If you want to join us in the pampered club I suggest in the morning giving your loved one a gentle nudge and asking ...ermm On second thoughts ,scrap that idea it's very nice that first cuppa on your own in the morning 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennizor Posted February 6, 2021 #15194 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Raining quite hard here in Bolton and has been overnight. This is a problem for us at the moment. 6 years ago we had our glass conservatory roof replaced with a solid one. There are 4 large Velux windows in the roof and last week one of them started leaking. We had to move the dining table to the lounge end and the floor is now covered in towels and a bowl under the leak. The ceiling around window has some damage. The 10 year guarantee covers the windows but, to cut a long story short, the company that did the roof and Velux arguing about who should take responsibility. On the positive side, the forecast for the next few days here is quite good (snow is not shown for us). Even better news, my 67 year old husband has got his vaccination on Tuesday. You have to take the positives where you can in these crazy times. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my - good luck with everything Jennizor We’ve got another of those “nearly-Spring” days, which we’re making the most of before whatever the weather is due to throw at us. It might be good if the fields get frozen - poor pup looked like a walking mud clump on the way back from her play with (boisterous) friends. Another bath!

As a child I’m sure I never saw them before March even here in the South East. Last few years have been February though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
