My daughter has a similar problem with her bridge.
She needs an op but, as you say, it's not covered on NHS.
Her op will cost

Talking of unusual food mixes.....as I've said my son is a chef and as he owns the place he is always coming up with new ideas.
I am old fashioned with food so yesterday was a struggle when he brought me** grilled sea bass with grilled pineapple.
**my daughter and family are away and she has arranged for him to stay with me for a week.

Morning.
Overcast and breezy.
Tip run then opticians for eye test later this morning. Just the bi-annual check up although a few days ago cutting back the hedges etc I got something in my eye which was maddenly irritating. I couldn't see anything in there(excuse pun) but blimey it was unpleasnt. Anyway, all seems fine but this a good opportunity to get it looked at. As it happens I was wearing safety glasses at the time as well, I'm not the most H&S person when I do DIY etc but some things I do adher to and eye protection is one of them.
Weights session later I think.
First, coffee!

Drizzly and humid walk done. I needed a jacket for the rain but started to sweat after a couple of miles.
Roll on September!

A bit cooler and fresher here, although I expect that will change.

I wore my new Alpkit lightweight rain jacket yesterday. It worked really well, within ten minutes it had stopped raining and I was sweating as it was so humid. Fortunately it rolls up quite small and I put it in my man bag.

We were supposed to pick the kids up from school - grandkid 3 plus his cousin
but all has changed and apparently grandkid 2 is doing a "Pride" parade at his Special School this afternoon and wants some to come and watch
his Mum and Dad are working and he asked if we could go as Plan B
pretty good for him - he is autistic and tends to avoid speaking to us - especiall his Gran - if possible
unless he is staying here in which case he is fine and friendly and loves his Gran reading stories
and going for walks with me
it is vert pleasing that he chose us as plan B rather than his other grandparents
he also asked for us to take him home after school rather than going home on "his bus" as usual
he doesn;t like change so we were expecting him to want to use the bus!!
anyway that is this afternoon sorted

I got no problem with pride. My oldest daughter prefers the company of ladies, so to speak, and that has never been a problem for me.
But why is it rammed down our throats with marches? Where are are the parades for us middle aged bald Jewish blokes? Why the absence of parades for accountants or golfers? All very strange.

Shame we can't do politics here as it's a rainy out there and we could have had fun filling the day discussing u-turns and climbdowns!

If it weren't so tragic it would be funny. We must be an international laughing stock.
That's as vague and loose as I can make it without descending into P so I'll stop there.

This is how I feel too. Be what you want to be, but stop preaching about it.

Indeed.
However I must ask again as I don't think you replied to my earlier comment about why the politics thread is not moderated? Is there a reason for that. I can only assume it's so bad that every other post would be removed. Note I haven't even looked as pointless if it's a free for all and just abuse but I was wondering.
