Morning all
Have a great week off Maddie
Just back from the gym, it doesn't get any easier.
Same weather as Rita, dark, damp and miserable, drizzly too. Won't be walking far today.
Might go into Bracknell market and get some fresh fruit and veg and salad. need some printer ink as I promised some photos to my Mum's cousin, who isn't on the internet.

Have a nice day everyone.

Today's Rememberance is rather special as it will be 11 mins 11th hour 11th day 11th month and year 2011.

Morning All.

Very grey, foggy and wet here. Horrid.

Yes I am looking forward to my week off. I have not had time off work since July, so feeling a bit weary.

Am going out with the girls from work to have a drink or three tonight.

Sooo, see you when I surface tomorrow. ;-)

Have a good day everyone.

George, good luck with your lady, hope all works out well for you. Give best wishes to Foggy.
Maddie have a great week off work :-D :-D
Marilyn I hope you are enjoying yourself, lapping up the sun while the rest of us shiver :-(

Things are not improving on this site are they. Gave up trying to get on this thread last night. I had an e-mail from GR the other day asking me to participate in a survey and tell them what I think of GR. I'm sure they don't really want to know what I think of it at the moment :-P :-P :-P
The problems have been going on for so long now its ridiculous.

Hope everyone is well,

Linda.

Join the club !!

Have the doctor given you your medication yet ? Surely you don't have to wait for the nurse to give them to you ... :-S

I always see my doctor for check ups every 6 months for all blood tests & examinations.
The nurse is available at my surgery for any problems or worries .

You'll have to have Eye test soon.....

Linda nothing to worry about I take two tablets a day Metformin and I feel absolutely fine...

I was borderline for a couple of years then it catches up with you
:-S :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S

Sorry I didn't mean to ignore you. Yes it is Hillingdon in Middlesex. Mum has been in there for about 2 weeks and wasn't moved yesterday, due to ss not having the finance in place ? I am hoping to hear good news later today. My sister and nephew went to the home and put some of her personal belongings in her room. So it looks like she has a room even if she can't occupy it. Mad eh? The home is in Ruslip, near The Orchard Pub so it should be easy to take her out even just for a meal and give her things she has missed for the last few years. Even though they had plenty of people visiting them and we had taken them both out for a meal in March for their birthdays, and taken in fish and chips which he thoroughly enjoyed.

Been and got curtains for the bedroom at last, just need to iron them and get them hung up.

Then we did some food shopping. Aren't prices going up week on week?

Have a nice afternoon.

Linda x <3

PS The doctor said I am now considered to be diabetic, will need medication(tablets) but I have to see the diabetic nurse to discuss the way forward with her. She will phone next Tuesday, but I can't see her until 3 weeks time for an appointment, the dr doesn't deal with it unbelievably. Linda
