Good afternoon to you all
well went for my blood test today at the hospital only to find that you can no longer just walk in and get blood test done you have to book an appointment. Drs receptionist at surgery told me last Wednesday that you could just walk in. Receptionist at hospital tells me she could give me an appointment at 1.15pm so thought ok have some lunch in the hospital hang around and go back to department later. Suddenly dawned on me that last test I remember it being a fasting one so as I had had breakfast I realised that I couldn’t have it today . So hospital have now booked it for Thursday. I was furious at my I really was. So I went out into the front of the hospital to calm myself down. Then rang my Drs and very calmly and made a complaint to the senior receptionist. How I did it I do not know as I wanted to scream. Especially as it has been appointment only since December 2023.
Hi Toni No our church do not do anything thing like agape I think you called it.. I’m on the borderline of pre diabetes. What Mr T and myself have been doing has worked and is reversing it .
i can collect my prescription but I was put on delivery service by chemist during covid and did not bother to take myself of of it and in fact quite a few times I have rung up and asked if they have done it and I will collect it. .You right about drs as you say if you manage to get an appt when you get there there is only a couple of people waiting. So how can the Drs be busy with appts. So think of me on Friday at 10.30 am and hope the blood test goes ok on Thursday.
Love the carrots picture BOSH poor carrots 😂😂
Stay positive always👍xx1 -
Hi Toni and toady
Just a little poem inspired by toady about hair clips - I did actually “research” this a little bit, but if any of the “deets” as young people sometimes say, lol, are not quite right, no one take offence it’s only a poem 😂
Ok bye for now tc xx
Vc poem called “toady’s smelted hair clips from the Lord of the blings”
Narya was a hair- clip that inspired hairdresser - related resistance
The Nenya hair - clip had powers of water, used with gel it tames fly -aways with such persistence
Vilya was the healing hair clip - like petroleum jelly on skin
Such good quality accessories that never entered the dustbin
The hairdresser himself was Sauron of Mount Doom
The owners of subordinate clips would cower whenever he entered the room
The Dwarf Lords were tough for they were the hairdressers of yore
For when toady had had enough they cut her locks with just one stroke of the sacred sword, it was no chore
No grazes or tiny injuries, the Dwarf Lords were masters of their trade
The only problem was that the littleys had gobbled up all their treats, fruit salad (yummy yummy) and swigged down their lemonade2 -
hello everybody
not a bad weekend of chocolate and roast lamb thank you to all for asking. Forgot to do pic of dinner yesterday, although wiffwoof didn’t come it was just us three and Niff so I had loads too much lamb and veg but we ate most of it. Sainsbury’s no longer stock Knor Lamb stockpot things which is annoying!!!
i haven’t read back yet so apologies. I have just rolled in on the KTM and thought I’d better post.
Will read in full tomorrow hope everyone had a jolly nice weekend and far too much Easter chocolate and food. Sucré had a walk to the local church who had a display for Easter with Jesus. On the way out he said ‘Bye Jesus!’Wppt. Love to all xxx

hi again Toni
Yes sleek is in the dolls house and has overeaten lol
Yes the littleys have exterminated all the cheese as they say on Dr Chew
At least I’m able to watch tv which doesn’t feature cobra monster snake hybrids etc
Or the rookie monster singing insincere ballads of the fruit salad variety
LA slept through but BR got up at 2am and wanted water, mum was up then briefly so she helped him.
But at one point they will both be staying for 5 nights - I may need your prayers then or possibly I’ll ask the gracious toady if I can stay a bit longer in the biccie cupboard lol
I must admit I partook of a Cornish pasty today
But it has been a while since my last beef plus sat fat - related sin I guess
Dad left tablets lying about, LA found them and gave them to mum
Thank God BR didn’t find them and eat them, we told dad this cannot happen again
Ok I’m trying to go to bed a bit earlier, at least the aim lol
👋have a good night toady Toni Joan Jojo SK S knee etc tc xx
Ps Toni when LA told you to make him something with cheese, this isn’t what he had in mind 😂xx

Hi all 👋 just a mini hello to keep my place so to speak 😁 one day down two to go. Up at 6am today because I got up for the milk and wasn't worth going back to bed again. Downhill all the way now I hope 🤞 I will be injecting tomorrow (timing!), it's all go 😂.
Thank you for the moral support as always frog, Sleek is a trouper 👍️ sorry I kept her rather late 😳😉 and thank you for Moocha monkey, you are a v good sport 😊🤭. Catch up soon touch wood, for proper news etc, my poor garden, when will I get back to you 😣 hope yours is ok, heavy rain here tonight. Love to all 😘 xx
One coffee, no bics is today's 'tally' for workmen Joan 😄 can't remember what the chap tomorrow usually has or whether he'll be on his own. The neighbours were doing something to the outside drainpipe, technically half mine I suppose, so will benefit me, so mustn't grumble. At least it's a one-off job 👍️. Now it's my turn to have a bit of noisy work I bet everyone will be out & manage to avoid it 🤷♀️. Hope Charlie gets on ok while he's away. Love to you & Pepper 😘 xx
Have a good night bosh and I will return to the poem in due course, which I love, a whole world of legendary hairgrips 😀 and the Dwarf Lords are terrific 👍️. Take care will catch up properly soon, have read back but probably haven't taken everything in, I note though that there may be a longer littley visit so yes do book early at the biccie cupboard to avoid disappointment (joking of course, I will make an open reservation 😉). Hope you made it to bed early and you have a good walk to group 👋 xx
How very very infuriating that was Carol, very sorry for you, December 2023 for goodness' sake 🙄 hope the next appt goes well wish you lots of luck xx
Hoping your results were back as planned and were helpful Jojo 🤞 have a good night xx
Have a good night SK glad everyone well and had a nice Easter, not a single egg here poor me 😔 (there was chocolate, just too stingy to pay for overpriced Easter stuff 😄. The well-known classic small egg, they are meant to come in fours, not threes 🙄😠😂). xx
Hope Stuart doing as well as poss and has been doing something in the garden unlike myself 😬 xx
Have a good night all 😴 xx
