Aqua Aerobics

So it's an early lunch today so I have time to digest my lunch before swimming s'afternoon
Well it went as well as can be expected. I do seem to be more able to stand on my right foot and lift the left foot off the floor to do various exercises than I was previously

Shaving

So I had a shave s'morning. Then half an hour later I stroked my face and realised that I had shaved each side, the bottom, around my mouth but I had forgotten to do my upper lip
No Neil, you are not to grow a moustache.
Shaved it off now

Deliverer

And a chap in a van came to the door s'morning with an enormous box of gloves for the staff to wear while creaming me etc

Shhhh

So an article about criminal investigator made me think "Oh, I can do that but a bit more uncriminaly" hence taking these, to figure it out etc

Last Of All

Then when I was half way thru my nap the phone rang. I answered and it was Glangwili  Hospital saying they have a special clinic on Saturday for my skin and I have been on their list needing it for ages so I will go along. So Saturday afternoon we have to go see some kind of a Dermatology Expert

Phew

Then today we took my forms and passport etc to Carmarthen County Council and they hummed and ha'd then eventually said "Yes, you are entitled" and said that that will post me a new parking certificate in the next couple of weeks.
And they gave me an envelope to post the old one back to them when it runs out

No Gymming

Then after lunchtime we headed off to Swansea to Sara the Physio. First of all we were exercising with my right foot on a cushion and stepping back and forward with my left leg. Amd just wow, my right leg is so much better every fscking day ATM. It is just wow.
At the end of the appt she gave me a splint thing for my right arm, it is just to be worn when I go to bed but it is to stretch the wrist and fingers, to make my hand move properly. She also said about did I want another jab in my right wrist. I said "Yes, yes, yes" as the last jab made such a difference and hopefully if she thinks I am ready this one might make such a difference too

Monday, 28 November 2016

Then

Then later we drove to Swansea for a Headway meeting. It wasn't bad and we arranged to meet up with them on Thursday at the variously able bowling thing
And as we were coming back Timmy commented on how much better I am getting at just randomly having conversations with passers by

CCC

So we headed into town and went to CCC office to give them the forms for my reapply for a new blue badge. They said tick, tick, tick.... ah this letter is out of date. So we explained how all my letters get sent to Anthony in Bristol and Timmy emailed an Anthony assistant and asked for a copy. My blue badge doesn't run out til the end of the tear so we are OK, just waiting now

Monday Morning Again

So it is Monday again. Today we have to head over to Headway Swansea instead of going swimming. I think "Oh no" about going to HW, but "Hoo-flipping-ray" about not going swimming so I shouldn't complain too much

Walkies

So tonight I stood up in the kitchen, picked up my walking stick and tucked it beneath my arm, not touching the ground, and walked all the way to the bathroom. Put my 'stick next to the door and walked the rest of the way to the loo. Pee'd and walked back with my 'stick under my arm

Hah

And luckily the poor sod liked it last night as we have to eat it again tonight

Memory Strangeness

And I just remembered to change my bed s'morning. Just remembered, like any normal person. I used to have to leave myself notes etc, but now I just recall

Saturday, 26 November 2016

Tea For Seven or so

And I cooked another pan of veg and lentil with tomato and pasta and it was fscking delicious. GGtGG agreed. There was the sauce and garlic and loadsa herbs etc that I added s'morning, it cooked all day
And while I was cooking this I found, in front of the pasta, a packet containing about half the amount of pasta I needed. As it was boil for 4 minutes as opposed to the new pasta which was boil for 8 minutes I thought "Oh just throw it away" so I did. THEN it occurred to me that Timmy is here early next week, when I will be eating pasta and he doesn't eat my food so half the amount I will need then

Lentils

And I was making food early today and used the last of the red split lentils so we popped into Aardvark to pick up some organic version. When we were in there we saw the owner/boss and said hi. She immediately said how thin I was looking

Friday, 25 November 2016

Pubwards

And later on we headed up to the local pub. It was a bit busier as they had Welsh rugger on't telly but as soon as the match finished we were neark=ly alone in the drinking area. There were some folk in the dining area but........

Unbearably Proud

So s'afternoon my and RoyGBiv headed into The Range to just buy some superglue which I am sure was in all the supermarkets but we fancied somewhere different. So we got there, asked a MOS whereabouts to look, she said "Upstairs...... or there is a lift around the back" as she caught site of me looking at the escalator. Roy headed off towards the lift then came back most quickly as I was looking at the escalator. I looked some more then just thought "Do it" and went and climbed on. That was fine but by the time I got to half way I was panicking about the other end but when it came it was no problem. Step and immediately let go which felt all wrong but as I no longer need to hold anything it is actually right
When we found what we were looking for we came back down and this time I had handed my camera to Roy to catch the important event

UberGymming

Then today it was my day in Sam's advanced gym class and it went well enough. Several folk said "I remember u when you were first coming to classes" and "You were in a wheelchair" etc

Technology These Days

So I received an email advert today and the picture has steam coming out of the cuppa. So it's a video, not a photo.
Lordy computers have got a bit cleverer while I was iller

Thursday, 24 November 2016

First Of All

So first thing s'morning first of all we popped down to cafe Iechyd Da and fetched my batch of organics which was delivered there (And I had to say to the boss "Can you employ some uglier staff, I just can't cope with this lot") then we shot off to Morrisons and bought the small amount of shopping that's the rest
So we are back home now but we will be back in Iechyd Da s'evening for the monthly folk night
Yes, a good time was had.... it was well busy, loadsa musicians and loadsa customers. Again we sat down the 2 steps from the loo but I can manage that now, no issue.
And next months folk night will be a week earlier to avoid the christmas nonsense

Jim Nasty

So s'morning me and Timmy and a bottle of water went and did loads of gymnastics. We did various arm exercises then got on a rowing machine and rowed for over a mile

Wednesday, 23 November 2016

Out Shopping

And we popped out tonight to Farmfoods to pick up more sweet potato oven chips, more baguette pizzas and more generally frozen food.
We got loads so I was able to score frozen food and stuff off tomorrows More Reasons To Shot At list

Daylight

And night before last I was a bit worried that all the charging things in my garden had failed to charge. Last night they were all fine.
????
Oh yes, of course, they got almost no sunlight yesterday, the rain was so heavy

My New Sig

Is quoted from her

'Wimming

Oh dear, so we are going to the Aqua Aerobics (advanced) class in mid digesting after lunch time today so lunch will have to be an hour earlier
And it went as well as can be expected. With the traditional teacher back this week, she was off last week. Afterwards I was telling her how much better I am getting at standing on my right foot and doing various movements with the left, I used to fall over etc and she did say that from observing she can tell how much better my general balance is

Tuesday, 22 November 2016

UnFacebooking

So I clicked a link using my phone, it opened a Facebook page but tried to open it using the version I had to replace with a different one, a different email address so it got confused and said "Naah". So I paniced and tried to change my password etc but it still wouldn't work. Luckily Timmy was working for the first time in 3 weeks and was able to tell me what was going wrong. So when it said "This email address, what's your password" I had to change the email address  my old password still worked

Not Physioing

So Sara emailed me last night and said "Sorry" about today's appointment, so we arranged another app for next Tuesday and instead we popped to the gym and did a 10km cycle. Yes it was hard work but it is done now

D'uh, he fixed it

And Timmy came back, looked at my screen being half a mm off centered and pressed the buttons below the screen that you can't see the labels for without a torch. (Pic of where that pic is taken) Menu, Image Setup, V Position(*), it's done now. So ATM he is off doing staff wages for last month that has to be done by today but I will see him later
(*) With the + and - symbols to move your choice to the left or right

He's Back

And tomorrow after weeks off Timmy, my second in command team leader type, is actually going to come and grace us with his presence

It *IS* Easy

Aaah, I worked out how to record summat on my phone and transfer it and play it, it's actually easy. It may be a bit noisy when you click it but it was just my practice really

Jingle Balls

Jingle Balls

What A Nooneraft

And we are sat indoors watching the rain run down the windows

What A Morning

So s'morning we had to pop into the Drs for an appointment. They said "Someone had written to them" but on asking Anthony had said "Check that Neil is still alive" so we were there for about 2 minutes but they will still send my funds or summat
So then, as we hadn't gone swimming because of the appt GGtGG said "So we better pop to the gym" which we did. 4 machines then 5 minutes on the upstairs machine

Sunday, 20 November 2016

All Round Town

Then s'afternoon we popped into town and went walking. We walked round town, then up by Iechyd Da and back down by the old Town Hall. It is strange again about how it's easier to walk uphill but it was easier than last week walking downhill. Still much harder than uphill but easier

How Does It Work?

Again.
So I got my headphones out of my bumbag and tried to switch them on with my phone device. Tried again and again and the sound was still coming out of the speakers. Luckily MM said "Switch on Bluetooth"
And I must remember to switch it back off when The Hobbit has finished

Out Today

And the weather seems better today, so I hope that after lunch we will head into town for a walk-about

Clean Razor

So it was marked in my diary that I need to clean out my electric razor device s'morning. So I was thinking "I can't do it over the bin, bits will fall off and in there, I wonder if there is an old newspaper anywhere?" which there wasn't but then it occurred to me, take a tissue out of the box, lay it flat and open the razor over it, then fold it up with all the bits in and throw it away, no mess, nowt needs wiping etc.
And hopefully writing about it here will make it stick in my memory 

Saturday, 19 November 2016

Off Out

So me and MM said s'morning that we would go out for a walk s'afternoon but while we were eating lunch the weather changed a bit, so at a guess we will be stuck in
So, in the evening we headed to t'pub and there were actually some other customers there last night. OK, not loads but some..... I walked in and stood next to a bar stool, but as I was so enjoying being able to stand up without any struggle I just carried on standing, for this pint, the next, the third etc, just standing at the bar. Then afterwards I just turned round and walked up and down the steps so I could go straight to the car park without needing to walk out on the road, like I used to have to

Hobbiting

Lordy, so s'morning I am listening to summat that I have only read with my eyes many moons ago
I am enjoying it *very*much*, The Hobbit 

I Recall

And I used to stick notes to the back of the door from my room etc but I just remembered s'morning, do the washing. I no longer leave notes for myself, my functional memory is so much better these days

Friday, 18 November 2016

Samless

So today we had been warned that Sam was ill so she couldn't take the class (Missing her already) but she said contact the gym before heading over as they might find a stand in but they might not. So we headed over at 2 o'clock anyway and as they said the class wasn't happening we just went to gym and did a load of machine balance work
The highlight of which was a go on the new "walking upstairs" machine - it just felt so strange actually being capable of using it.
I started off on speed 1 for a couple of minutes, switch up to 2 then finished off being quite comfortable going up at speed 3

Jab

Well that was quick and easy, after 2 mins wait we were called in, she did it, made an appt for 6 months on, then we left. About 10 mins total in there
BUT I thought to myself that I will try sitting on one of their lower chairs today, ie most of their chairs. When we got there all the taller chairs were full so I had to sit on a lower one, but when she called my name I was able to stand up

Sunny

Well today is a sunny day now, s'pose the clear sky was why it was so cold last night.
Sunny but still chilly

Ice Ice Baby

And when MM went out to remove his car s'morning he had to scrape the ice off the windscreen etc, it was icy last night

Balance Is Improving

So in the rain storms in the last few days 3 or 4 times when moving my walky stick has left me, slid away, usually when I am changing direction or summat. Not once have I hit the floor or needed to be caught by my MOS or even needed to grab the wall with my hand. My balance and reactions to disaster is just so much better these days

Thursday, 17 November 2016

Pizza&Chips on a Thursday?

So it's all a bit strange. So went shopping for the week s'morning and bought Na'an Bread etc, picked up the veg too so we had onion&mushrooms, same as usual. But usually on a Thursday the person working with me will be Timmy, who objects to my food, and doesn't eat it. But today me and Mark is working so we were able to eat Pizza and once a week chips tonight.
Yummy scrummy in my tummy

You Have To Do Stuff Tomorrow

I don't know why but it feels like the week is over now. No Neil, you have important stuff to do tomorrow, an injection at the Docs in the morning and a gym class in the nooneraft

Paranoia

And as we had to put the little bin things out to be emptied today I was a bit paranoid about them blowing away once they were emptied so I went out as soon as the binmen had been and removed it.
5 minutes later I am looking out the front window and I can see many neighbours' bins blowing down the street

Quieter

And we have a quieter day today. Need to pick up my organic delivery, then go get the rest of my shopping and then the only thing to do is gym, I think today it is "do 4 machines" kind of day so not too stressful
Then after we brought the food home & I put it away we nipped to the gym for a session. Today as MM hasn't been doing that duty since before their "redoing" we just went on the machines that he suggested. Hopefully the new "scan your bracelet" device will have worked and my records will be on some PC somewhere

Tories

From www.independent.co.uk/

Practice

And more practice working with sound to get it into my head how to do it so next time I am stuck I will just remember how.
And how to send the sound from my phone in an email to my PC so I can use it on my website etc (Hint hint). Nothing needs plugging into anything else, they send it thru the air, magically

WTF's going on?

So WTF is this about, a letter from my Doctor?

Were Off

So in 45 minutes time it is time to go to Aqua Aerobics. With GGtGG who she thinks is useless, but that's not my problem
Aargh, so today there wasn't the usual teacher, the replacement was aware of my limitations etc but the exercises she made us do were extra knackering

Aaaah

So last night when heading bedwards I closed the kitchen door. It just closed quietly and easily, I no longer had to do 4 or 5 bangs to make it close. That's better. (Click on pic to hear noise)

Weep Bitter Tears.

Yes, it's as dull as ditchwater doing all this physio, it is hard and painful on so many levels, but it seems to be working. On so many levels I am improving. The obvious ones (to me) are my balance and general fitness but on so many levels I am getting so much better than "they" thought I would be able to
And before my bath s'afternoon I, as usual, got on my bed and did the 30 lifting my feet up&backwards which as usual filled me with joy. But my balance and strength are improving so don't complain too hard 

Strange Day Too

So s'morning me and RoyGBiv headed back to the chemist that's attached to the doctors surgery to get the other bottle of stuff that I was supposed to pick up yesterday but they didn't have enough. I also had to check that they had ordered the goo to be injected into my leg next week
So I had to pay to park for 2 minutes but there you go.
Then we popped back to gym and got some help getting the new clippy on bits to work the machines work. So hopefully next time I am there it will just work. Apparently anyway, we did all the setting up. Anyway, despite starting off on the machine without logging in and then stopping it and getting help to log in etc so we didn't have a definite time I think that it was still faster then last week etc etc

Monday, 14 November 2016

Strange Day

So today firstly we need to have an early lunch then head off to the Drs to fetch my 'script then head to Headway where they are having a strange "Meet folk with brain injury" kind of day where amongst the folk with brain injury will be me
That was a very strange day. It was somewhat busier than usual but not by a lot. I entered raffle and various competitions to show I wasn't tight fisted but I didn't win a fscking thing. I played Connect Four with a chap who makes me realise that I wasn't the illest person ever. But I lost to him twice and MM also lost 2 matches to him. Yes, he is a bit fscked but he is very good at Connect Four

Sunday, 13 November 2016

Walkies, again

So we popped into town today and parked on Lammas St. From there we walked down to St Catherines Walk and went shopping there.  We went into Debenhams and seemed to get stuck in the Ladieswear section so we had to leave abruptly. From there we popped into Tiger a sells-everything junk shop but we didn't even spend in there
I did find it hard on the way there just on old fashioned pavements, there is more dug up bits and general unevenness 

Recall

And s'morning I just remembered that I am due to change my bed. Just woke up, and recalled before I had even sat up in bed
Some of my memory is improving, I used to have to leave notes to myself stuck to the back of the door

Saturday, 12 November 2016

First Of All

Well, first, on the way to town we called into gym and got my freebie, that they emailed me about, new methods of telling the machines who you are etc.

More Big Walkies

And today after lunch we headed into town and first of all walked the length of Merlins Walk which was well busy, at the end we got the lift down and walked thru the bus station back towards town, then walked past the old Town Hall, uphill on Guildhall Square, across and back downhill by Iechyd Da then back to where we were parked on Lammas St

Friday, 11 November 2016

What Day?

But it doesn't feel like a Friday today having not been to the gym, more to the point having not been to Sam's Class in the gym

Walkies

So in a bit we are going into town and have a walk about, dunno where, we shall see what is attractive when we are there.
I have done exercises this week so just a stamina workout......
And we did a big walk around town. About an hour and a half we were walking (and looking in various charity shops) for. So we parked half way along King St, walked all the way up to the library to make it a long walk, then turned back and walked the whole length of King St, carried on over the pedestrian bit at the end, then downhill past the old Town Hall, then along a bit and back uphill past Iechyd Da to the car


Busy

And the beautiful Sam is away today and so is her assistant so there will be no gym class today. I think I should skive but no doubt my MOS will go "Come on, lets use machines".....

Thursday, 10 November 2016

Sweet Lucy Was A Dancer

And none of us would chance her. The lyrics were in my head today.

(NOISY)

Gymerooney

And we popped to gym s'morning and did upper body exercise machines. And 5 minutes to finish on a recumbent bike which I had switched much too high but I thought "Only 2 minutes left" and just finished instead of turning it down
And as for the signing myself onto machines with the app on my phone?? Yes, quite, someone noted how well I was doing with pen&ink

Get It

And we popped into Iechyd Da to pick up the veg s'morning. And on the way there we popped into Oxfam to give them a belt which is now much too large for me, a fat persons belt

Wednesday, 9 November 2016

Walkies, Stickless

And it occurred to me tonight how far away from my walking stick I am walking, as long as it is in the same room as me I feel confident enuf

Aerobics

And we are off to AquaAerobics in a couple of hours, oh what fun we have
Well t'is dun. It is definitely getting easier some aspects of it, I don't think it is because my fitness is improving (Although obv. yes, that too), but that I am much better at moving/freer etc than even a few weeks ago

Found The Oven Glove

Right, the oven glove, the only one I possess that doesn't have another attached to it which gets in the way as I only use 1 hand, went missing t'other day. Me and a MOS looked everywhere, 2 nights later I said "Still can't find it" and we both looked again. No, nowt. Then last night I asked a different MOS, he looked for about 25 seconds and found it.
In the cupboard beneath the sink.
Why it had been put there I (and the chap that put it there) have no idea.
So I had already bought another, will be delivered today or tomorrow, apparently
And he put the old one away properly tonight, in the right place.....

Tuesday, 8 November 2016

Late Night Shopping

Then tonight we popped into Farmfoods quite late on to pick up some more frozen food etc. As we came in the front door afterwards the phone rang. So as my hands were too busy I walked towards the freezer in the kitchen with the bag of shopping in my left hand and the phone in my right hand. Walking stick leaning against the wall.
And RoyGBiv said after the conversation how well my legs were moving during that walk, I just looked like a proper person walking, with no walking stick

Not At Gym

And we were not at gym today as instead we had to head over to Sara the physio at Pyle (or Pil depending on the language)  and did another load of walking forwards, sideways and backwards on the treadmill
I think it is not fun but we will just have to repeat it again and again in the near future

Forgotten

And I had forgotten that VAT had gone up recently as I have not been involved in discussing the prices of goods/services at all, just buying. I recall it at 15%

Feed Me

Then today I need to have an early lunch because at lunchtime we (me and RoyGBiv) will be travelling to Pil to see that Sara the physio instructor who, last time, had me walking backwards and sideways on the treadmill
And yes, after discussion, last week when the A48 was closed we went a more longwinded route and stopped for lunch on the way but as the quicker way is back open we will have an early lunch then go off about lunchtime

Monday, 7 November 2016

For Dinner

And for dinner tonight we had summat with Sweet Potato Oven Chips because as I was away at the weekend I didn't get a delivery of veg, so no boiled potato for half a week so far

Question From Freya

And Freya said yesterday that her first memory on me was when she was about 4, we were in town, she had no coat on and was chilly. So I gave her my much too big for her jumper to wear. She did wear it and said "Aren't you cold?". I said little-uns are more important, us big chaps are warm enough.
I said "Gosh, half remembering, was that on Merlin's Walk?" she said "YES". WTF, my memories are in there, just access is the problem, when reminded..... I have no conscious memories of Merlin's Walk before my accident but it is obviously in my memory somewhere

Long Way Home

And we were in the car for 4 hours yesterday and I didn't need to stop for a pee until I got home. And I had lots of juice etc when away so my fluids were still up, just my bladder is getting so much better, more effective

Where's My Weekend Gone

And I haven't had my usual sitting round getting bored^h^h^hsorry, relaxing weekend as we were away being active from Sat. am to Sunday night. And I am back to going swimming today.
HOO-FSCKING-RAY etc
OK, I dunno if I am just getting fitter or better at swimming or whatever but I don't seem to want to cry as much during it. I wouldn't say I enjoy it but it is less unpleasant than it was before. AND I managed 2 breadths hopping on my right foot, just that touching the floor. Again for the first time in how many years?

Constipation

And I had a sh*t s'morning as usual. Most mornings (Well, nearly every one) I have a sh*t straight after breakfast. But today's pooh was only about 11 hours after the last. I had to try 5 times, yes 5, yesterday before my bowels would empty
Much relieved last night when it finally came.....

Sunday, 6 November 2016

What I Had To Put Up With

And part of the reason I was awake so early s'morning was Roy snores (noisy), very. I couldn't record it very well as I could only reach my phone but he snores

Left

And we had another excellent morning and lunch with my new in laws. And they supply food that is much too delicious for me.
Anyway later we left, without Freya as she took a train back to Manchester but with Toby and Megan who we dropped off at a services half way along the M42 where they will be picked up by Megan's parents to do gord nose what before Toby is catching a train home later
And I am back again to typing on my PC, not my little tablet or on my phone so I will be a bit more longwinded now. For the last couple it has all been said and true just concise and too the point

Home Again

Home again jiggity jig. Well we motored for hours today and got home eventually. I had a late bath and a 20 min nap before getting back up and cooking dinner and finishing the putting away of stuff work.
I think all in all we had a good time. I was accompanied by Roy who has never met any of my family etc but he had a lovely time too. I am rather impressed with Emma's parents, I think next time I see them it will be to stay there

Sleepy

So it is about half past 6 in the morning, I am wide awake now. RoyGBiv is in the other single bed snoring. Really loudly

Saturday, 5 November 2016

Fireworks

And tonight we had a fireworks party for Guy Fawkes. But tonight all the fireworks were set off by Toby. Not that I don't trust him but as a father watching my firstborn..... just much too scary

Lordy

So we have just been out to see my 3 kids and some imminent relatives for the night. Just wow, so Sam and his missus were there, Toby and his missus and Freya who is now a grown up at uni-fscking-verity were there. We had a lovely night and have left now

On The Way

And we are on the M4 ATM then gonna  turn left onto the Msummat-else in a bit...

Off Out

And me and RoyGBiv are off in a bit to Sams house in that England. Taking Freya with us and hopefully meeting Toby there too!!!!!! All my kids are grown up, left home and independant!!!!!!!!

Friday, 4 November 2016

[scared noise]

So I was just looking through today's bargains on Amazon and the first item on the list I thought "WTF?" used the interweb to see what it was and........ just UGH

New Class

So today in gym instead of going to the balance class @ 1pm I have been signed up for the 2pm class instead. It is the last on their list, most difficult for the most "getting better". So as I was started in class #1, went thru that, class #2 and class #3 now it's class #4. Lets hope I am up for it
Phew, done. Yes it was much harder work than the 1 o'clock class but I could manage. And a few times I found myself doing stuff that I haven't managed for 14 or 15 years, like standing on just my right leg. AND at one point she was giving us weights to walk with, she just gave me 1 so I could hold my walking stick with the other hand, second attempt I put my walking stick down, picked up 2 weights and walked while not concentrating on walking as I had to think about the weights 10 yards there and 10 yards back!!!!!!

Thursday, 3 November 2016

Walking

And I find myself just walking about the kitchen between food jobs without my 'stick.

Just walking like a proper person

Technology

And me and GGtGG headed gymwards, on the way I thought "Ah, I have that new app on my phone" which I had forgotten about, and forgotten how to use it. After some minutes of sitting at a gym machine nearly crying because it wouldn't connect I figured out, "Turn your phone round, the camera not the screen should face the machine" and sort of got it sorted. We used some new machines today which I did actually that did me some good

Wednesday, 2 November 2016

Bother

And at 1pm the chap drove our car back ready for a lift into town. So there was perfect time to take him back then go to the swimming pool. Bother but in the pool again it just amazes me how much better I am than last week!!!

Glow Plugs

And GGtGG phoned the garage to see if the car was ready and they said "No, not yet". Apparently the issue was a broken Glow Plug and they had to get one sent from Llanelli and hopefully it will be there within a few hours
Waiting to see if they fix it in time for me to go to AquaAerobics.....

Tuesday, 1 November 2016

Bollock Knees

And so tonight instead of cooking my usual roast veg I got out a tin of tomatoes I bought t'other day and started chopping veg, then got the lentils, herbs, garlic etc and produced nearly a Vegetable Bollock Knees for dinner and I must say, it was actually rather pleasant. GGtGG did say he thought it was lovely too

Wow

So then after lunchtime we popped to see Sara Davis the Physio in Pil. We did loads of walking on the machine, loads forwards, less but still some both directions sideways and backwards. She commented on how I was balancing much better etc. In the end she got me to walk down the room with no walking stick. First of all I was sticking my arm out to balance me but after suggestion I was just walking up the room normally

Car

So GGtGG phoned the garage s'morning to ask for a lift home tonight and they said "It has just been serviced", possibly they will be able to make the display stop without any more hassle. So wait and see s'afternoon, possibly we won't need a lift home at all
No, so we showed up, told them what she said on the phone and within 2 minutes of being indoors he came back and said "No, it is fscked, come back tomorrow" so GGtGG is gonna phone them before he leaves tomorrow in case it is fixed when there are 2 MOS present so we can get a lift there from one of the MOS who will then go hiome

Erm.... and....

After I put a link on my webpage I was further researching it and found this.
