Not mundane really.Some scrote has got Mrs Postmans card details And at 13-00 today,tried to spend £315.The bank has stopped it.Card now cut up,and a two well known sites,have had their accounts deleted.Both will be opened again with different details.

Good to know the bank is on top of things, not good that they had to be.

Great experience at our NHS dentist this morning. Little lad woke up looking like Plug from the Bash Street Kids, walked into surgery with no appointment, was seen within 5 minutes as an emergency.

Funerals are
On the one hand it's sad saying 'bye, on the other hand it's great to see people you've not seen in years.
Nice to be back in Nottingham for a night even though the occasion is

Have one tomorrow, local, a fine fellow, and he'll be missed greatly.

But you know, if the calendar gets there late, you have to bring yourself up to date, all at once.

Well, yesterday we heard our 0630 ferry from South Uist to Oban was cancelled for an 11am one to Mallaig. Woo woo lie-in. It’s a 30 min drive south. As it was, we were up and sorted early so hit the road. Strangely the ferry port was empty. Entered the office to find that the replacement ferry to Mallaig had just been cancelled due to mechanical issues and we were now booked on an 1150 boat from North Uist, (15 minutes north of where we had just come from) to Skye.
Arrived for a 90 minute wait.

The idea of departing early from South Uist was to get started early and swap road miles for ferry miles!
Now we’ve left at noon for the longest drive!

The best laid plans....

Waiting for breakdown recovery. Should be here in hour. Fortunately the motor is already booked in to sort the problem on Tuesday, just phoned my garage and they should be able to do it this afternoon.

At least it gave up the ghost outside my folks house so I'm using their resources. They're not here but I've text dad to tell him he needs to get more milk on the way home from work.

Here we go round the mulberry bush, mulberry bush on a cold and frosty afternoon. In walesgrave hospital attending an appointment, drive into the car park then drive circuits of the car park till someone leaves and you can dive into their space, provided someone does't beat you to it, very silly!.

Yes I had to do that with my Mother when my father was in Walsgrave hospital. It is horrendous, isn't it? Sometimes I got lucky with a space in the first car park on the left as you leave the main road, even though I then had to pay for parking there. Other people have parked at Tesco's and walked through. I am sure that hospital car park planners do not do their sums properly. Staff shift changes mean that there could be double the number of staff cars parked there. When you have got someone in the car with you who is not well, it adds to the difficulties.
