The Retirement Thread

[classic33]

There is no prescription because the doctor is not interested beyond referring her to a consultant
The consultant referred her to a programme that can help
which has rejected her because the waiting list is too long (like 2 other waiting list that she has been refused access to because they are too long)
the consultant can "do no more"

the GP says take as many as you like because they don;t do much
and they help - despite the instruction saying don;t take too many

but she has run out
and they are over-the-counter one but have to come from a pharmacy

so I am off out first thing to get some more

still - the NHS is in good hands

But lets not get all "the other place"
lets just say I am pissed off

It was more the last part
"SO I presume she will be grumpy in the morning
or sleepy
some dwarf anyway - as the grandkids (who stayed over last night) all seem a bit snuffly and coughy - she might be sneezy"

I was commenting on.

I can sympathize with the problems of getting medication though. I've ended up chasing it too often over the years.

Is no one up ?? I am lonely on own 😒
Got up for a pee at 0500 and thought I could get back to sleep....no chance.
I am in town later, at the bank. TSB used to have numerous branches but now just the one in the middle of town. No parking anywhere near and its supposed to be hissing down.....wonderful.

Morning. I was up early again so headed out for a little shuffle/jog with the head torch while it was quiet. Bath is now running so off for a nice soak.

Dry at the moment but some rain is due later.

Good morning from a soggy Coventry.

Morning all

It was around 8pm last night that we both turned to each other and realised that we hadn't had dinner. Completely forgot about it! We had some cheese and crackers instead.
Today, we are meeting up with our mates on the train to the Quantock brewery, for a 'dash & splash' - picking up pasties on the way.

Morning all.
It has obviously been raining quite hard overnight, with more rain to come today.
My winter bike is now primed and ready to go. I need to run some errands today, so I'm probably going to get a bit wet. MrsP has the car today, not that I would choose to use it, and the buses don't go where I need to go.
Just another busy day in paradise

Coooeeee. I snoozed on and off and fell asleep after it rained for 5 minutes at around 5am. Currently 9 deg here.

Stay safe peeps

I have been awake since 0500 and may go back for a snooze soon.
I hope you left me a bit of snooze ??

Well, we have a skip as we are emptying rhe loft prior to moving. I ordered another skip for today, and made it very clear on the phone they woukd need to take the old one away first.

Guess what?

Yep, a guy just turned up with 3 skips on his lorry, doubtless hoping to deliver mine but was thwarted by the unexpected presence of the full skip on my driveway. It doesn't matter to me, I wasnt planning on doing much with it today, but it's funny to watch their merry dance.
