You wouldn’t be sitting outside here......it’s freezing!

Remind me again.......what area is that. It looks nice.
I know you say Richmond but I dont know where that is.

It's Richmond in North Yorkshire Dave. It's very beautiful, has great cycling and walking and is quiet. Highly recommended.

Dont go there. You are a sweet young welsh woman and should not be subjected to such discussions.

She's not you know.

On one of those parts, I'll not sat which.

He'd be "chillin" outside here then. Which is what he's doing there.

At least they could treat your injuries.

Always a difficult one that one, you shouldn't go but want to go, then she says go and you go, but feel guilty for going.

Oh I know that feeling.

Yes, that's just how it was ..but still, I went on the walk and all was OK when I got back. I can shrug off the guilt feeling of going out now.

Plumber came,did job in minutes and made me £45 lighter, took Molly on the beach for a run and by the time I finished all that, light was fading so had to cancel the ride I was going to do. Forecast for rest of the week not so good .

We've been away at the Books and Boots Festival which I'm very, very happy to recommend. It's a little chaotic and disorganized in a friendly amateur sort of way. Everything is done by volunteers. The emphasis is on walking, the books bit is some low key talks by local authors. We've had a great time and will probably go back for the full week next year.

If you like Yorkshire and walking - go!!

In other news I've been waiting for an angiogram to check the success or otherwise of my operation earlier this year.

I got a phone call today saying I have pre-op on Friday and, subject to the pre-op, I'm booked for the angiogram next Friday.

Big decision lays ahead. I'll find out the dangers on Friday then I have to chose if I want the angiogram or not. We are talking camera in the brain here!!!

I really don't like this.

Good luck. Health problems scare me the older I get. Hospitals aren’t my favourite place.......don’t suppose anyone likes them.

Chillin' out in the van with a beer and a book, with Classic FM on in the background.
Just put the fire on for the first time since the end of February - it's roasty toasty in 'ere! 🤒

I've had one. Not nice, but pretty routine for them. They went in through my wrist.
