Morning. We have rain but mild. Different story tonight though when it’s to be clear and maybe get down as low as 2 degrees.
Today’s excitement is the green general waste bin.![]()
Not a lot on today. Got problems with 2 radiators which refuse to heat up (one of them is just a few weeks old). Have to get them sorted asap.
I am no expert but think its the thermostatic valve. Reason being, one gets slightly warm all over. On the new one it took 2 hours to heat up.Do they have bleed valves? Maybe just air locked?
Gosh, it's very mild out. I had a mix of jogging and walking and got a tad sweaty. Not long out of the bath but need to cool down a bit before having my breakfast.
Stay safe.Good morning folks, quite a restless night as the dreaded Covid made its presence known. I was lying in bed wearing jim jams, thick woollen hiking socks and my dressing gown with my feet on a hot water bottle and I was still shivering. Never one to miss an opportunity I started analysing what was triggering the coughing fits and trying out various things. After a while I realised that a particular breathing technique would really help and finally drifted off to sleep in the early hours.
Very impressed with the response from the NHS. I reported my positive test using the online website, it remembers my details so it was simply a matter of clicking my way through the screens and ticking the " Positive " test result instead of the usual " Negative " one. I received a text message and an Email within a few minutes asking me to confirm that I had indeed tested positive and saying that a Doctor would be in touch within 24 Hours. At lunchtime a Doctor from Poole hospital rang and had a chat and talked me through the new antiviral drugs he was going to prescribe. At teatime the Pharmacist at the hospital called me and had a further chat before informing me that they would send the drugs by taxi. They arrived about half an hour later and I was able to commence treatment last night.
Mrs Tenkaykev is still struggling, people have been wonderful with offers of shopping, bringing meals around etc.
I've knocked up a spreadsheet on paper with details of symptoms, diet, and any side effects / interactions as they are keen to get feedback on what is a relatively new medicine ( Paxlovid )
Meanwhile the sun is shining and I will sit in the garden with a coffee and a book.
Have a peaceful day folks 👍☕️☀️
