I am all for seasons but 10° in one day is too much, especially as it happens so often.

I agree - had to go back to long trousers and a jumper!!!
I blame Mo - she said she was sending some colder weather down but she didn;t mention how cold
or the wind
or the rain
I mean - talk about going over the top!!!
did we do something to offend her
(apart from the normal anyway??)
No, the food here is really good. Plenty of choice, huge portions, a bit carby. Very surprised, tbh.

Started young, and still going.
When I had knee surgery a few weeks back, the food in Chase Farm Hospital Enfield was very good. Quite an extensive menu, 3 courses, reasonable sized portions, a good range for breakfast, dinner and tea, and regular tea and coffee rounds with biscuits.
No complaints here about the food.

I had 8 nights in last year and the food was good.
Without getting into NCAP territory we have been gobsmacked with the food. Simple breakfast options (cereals, toast, yoghurts) and then 3 course lunch and 3 course tea with plenty of choice - miles too much on the plate for us, even sharing the food.
My life 'inside' does not seem to include the buzz word 'broken'.

Phew! Knackered now!
Spent most of the day on the caravan.
Cleaned it all over, damp checked inside, checked all habitation systems, sanitised the water system with Puriclean, greased the chassis where necessary, lubricated all window seals with silicon spray, checked the motor mover operation, charged the leisure battery and stocked up the toilet fluids. Checked wheel nut torques and type pressures.
Pretty much ready to go now
Been a long day, but worthwhile as I'd been putting the jobs off for too long.

I'm knackered just reading that.

I'm very happy to read you're "enjoying", (is that the appropriate word?) such good care. Our experience is the NHS is absolutely world class when one really needs help. My brain haemorrhage, RTC and Mrs P's cancer.
I feel there are broken parts but when it comes to the heavy lifting there's nowhere better to be.

That sounds exhausting but rewarding.........I like the idea of habitation systems!
Totally agree, Paul.
The overall service is far from broken in our experience. Based on 5 different hospitals in recent years. Maybe a bit tatty around some edges but generally they are superb on the 'big stuff'.
Waiting lists aside, A&E being the big political football, of course, generates most of the flack. I'd go on but obviously can't due to the rules...
