Chit Chat Thread (Part 2)

Thank you Jazzi. :smiley:

Morning folks.

Holly is having her groom at 12.30. I usually go and have a carvery while I wait but have had my fair share of roasts recently. Options are having a large coffee, going to the park opposite for a wander around, or Aldi. Will see what the parking situation is at the park (which is still overlooking the broads).

Morning everyone. Or evening, whatever the case. :grin:

We are expecting rain from now through Friday off and on. Getting ready for work. Much to do today. Have a great one!

Morning all.

No plans for today, just pottering about the house/garden.

Enjoying some time sitting here and getting caffeinated before I have to get up and get ready for my doctor appointment.

It rained this morning. We are expecting more through Sunday now. We need it though.

Have a great day everyone!

Morning.
Will try one last time to get a gp appt, then shall give up.

Hope you get an appointment today Janet.

Jazzi are they booked up or something?

Not sure, tbh. They cannot have all gone just as the lines open. Then they say I am a long way down in the queue, so know it’s not worth holding on. I do wonder if the automated message refers to future booked appointments, but often the line disconnects anyway. Phone back 15-20 minutes later and you stand no chance. Last week no 27, today no. 18.

I don’t know why GPs still rely on the ā€˜blower’ for booking appointments. If you miss their ring back you have to start again and rejoin the queue. Why not use texts or emails like the hospital does - much more efficient. Maybe they should record a message ā€˜No time wasters please!’

People recommend I go to the surgery at 8am but it’s not as simple as that. By the time I’ve seen to myself and the dog it is well past that and the surgery is a good 10-15 minute drive away. And that’s supposing there is parking available.

Morning all.

Morning folks.

Now we have a week’s long worth of wet weather to contend with. Nice for dog walks, not! Neither of us are a fan of rain.

Cafe meet this morning. No other plans, just trying to keep pain free still.

We have a lot of rain too, Im already missing the Sun , Ive put my living room light on its so dark .
At least I don’t have to water the garden with tap water .but it does bring out the slugs and snails .

Morning all.

I went to A&E early yesterday morning. Didn’t have to wait long, and the female dr gave me a good examination, diagnosing muscle spasms/strain. She said she could feel rope like texture where it was tense. Said I could freely use the ibuprofen gel, said the tens machine is a good idea, gave me a box of strong co-codamols and suggested a deep tissue massage. Waiting for confirmation of an appt tomorrow afternoon.

She doesn’t think anything is broken.

I bought some fybogel sachets in Tesco afterwards, because they can bung you up.

A friend managed her own appt yesterday for a sore shoulder, and was given a physio appt for a second opinion. And there’s me having to fund that myself. Grrr.

Morning all.

At least nothing is broken.

I can’t walk at all Janet.

Hope both you ladies get back on form health wise ,I used ibuprofen gel on my foot and it worked well .

Thanks Eliza. Susie, is it your feet? Back? Combination? Get well soon.

Also having back issues from a work injury. I’m off for now. Not sure when I will go back to work.
