I'm going to have a rest. I just took my jeans off to have a shave! No my beard isn't that long!

Maz has visited the site on the anniversary of the crash and left flowers there, quite a crowd gathers apparently.

Argh nuts... blood pressure is a bit high 158 over 88. Was 6 months ago. Never had high blood pressure before. Most likely due to less than ideal exercise (for me) after busting my spine. 24h meter to wear in 2 weeks. Time to hit the potassium rich foods (which I've not had many recently) and get cycling

I dread to think what mine is after the last 18 months, was a bit high then.
Doctors later to get something to help with my knee pain, Tesco 20p ibuprofen is not touching it

Ibuprofen isn't good for blood pressure.
I was told to space paracetamol out over the whole day within a max of 8. Try one tablet every 2 hours.
I've packed in pain killers unless I really need it. The GP isn't keen on codeine.
Just going to buy a blood pressure meter as its possibly white coat syndrome having been prodded enough in the last couple of years. Going to try and avoid tablets if I can.

I'm actually taking a combo of Ibuprofen with Cocodamol as recommended by the pharmacist, but they said Naproxen would be better.
Weirdly it's my 'good' knee that is bothering me, not the already weak one that I hurt a couple of years back.

I'm very much in the camp of taking them for no longer than necessary, but the prospect of the next four days at work is giving me nightmares already.

Biplane has just gone over! Must be going down to Bournemouth.
They say that Beetroot is good at lowering blood pressure. I Find that a glass of red wine also helps.
We are going to the seaside tomorrow. I hope my rest day works as the fairies are still with me.
