My Good lady has had her hospital appointment this afternoon cancelled,:sad: they text her mid morning, I've had to spend twenty minutes on the phone to hospital transport to cancel her transport.

Wouldn't you think this would be done automatically? A fortune was spent on NHS IT.
 
Did the cleaning then out for a little ride. I’ve been using a Garmin Forerunner for a few years for its GPS tracking, I only recently discovered I could pair it with a ANT+ heart rate strap. I used it for the first time today, so now I’ve got a whole load more info to consume...

MrsDs physio has just been.
Said it before but we have waited 9 months for a hospital physio and they tell us it will be a further 6 months.
So.........we now pay £120 a week for a PRIVATE physio who actually works at the hospital but is private 1 day a week.
But he is good !!!!
Unbelievable but she has just done 5 minutes on the exercise bike.

Well done to Mrs D, I recon it'd be easier to get an audience with the Queen than a Physio appointment.

Morning all :hello:

Started looking at houses on Rightmove.
We're not looking seriously yet, just trying to get a feel for the market. Found several nice places on Exmoor but they are all sold.
Hoping that suitable property will keep coming onto the market when we are ready to move in a few months time.
We liked the look of this place just across the road from the Exmoor Inn. Something similar would fit the bill.

Bad stretch of road, and there's PROW's to the side* and the rear of the property.

*Diverted for when the new buildings were put in place. Original buildings were further back from the road

My new phone has arrived, two days ahead of schedule, a Nokia 3.4, I've already got a Nokia 3.1, its a bit bigger than i wanted but all the phones with the screen size I wanted seemed to be out of stock, its now sat on the computer table charging. I'm still waiting for my last two plant watering bulbs, ordered the day after boxing day, due at the end of the month, ordered from China.

Do you know this stretch of road then? I use it quite frequently.
Rights of way are something you just have to accept he you don't live in an urban area.

Go back up the road and look at the lines taken. They cut the junction, coming out onto the wrong side. Signs of heavy braking as well. Straightened on "your side", possibly for the quarry next door.
You read far too much into stuff.
There may have been the odd accident over the years but the road is not known locally as being particularly dangerous.
BTW - the pin on the map is some distance up the road from the property, so you're probably looking at the place. ;)
