grin Bellanonna I love the nurse's description! This is the fourth time I've done this prep for various procedures - so far a barium enema, a colonoscopy, a proctogram and now a second colonoscopy. The first two were about 9 years ago, but last time was just 18 months ago and I learnt that with my dodgy knees, and no downstairs loo, it was safest to stay in bed all day after taking the Semtex shock. So that's where I'll be on Sunday, with my DH on call for cups of (milkless) tea and bottles of water to keep me hydrated.

Oh roll on Tuesday....

Good morning to you all, a bright morning here after thick mist, and the sky yesterday evening was thunderous, thought we were in for heavy rain, but it must have been just sea mist. Let us know how you GS scan goes Nana3, you too Bellanonnafor your DH. I am playing short mat bowls this afternoon, and the other half is decidedly miffed because he hasn't been chosen to play AGAIN. He really is not playing well recently, so it is understandable, but of course his pride has been hurt.

Good morning all. Foggy here in the South East. Off to Guys for DH kidney scan results. indinana best of luck. Mind you don't go too far before Monday. The nurse warned me that the prep medicine is like Semtex. Anyway, you can just lie there and look forward to Wednesday 's dental visit smile

Good morning all.
Bright and sunny but cold here in Stockport.Weekend shop when S arrives and then a domestic day, never a favourite with me.

Good morning, Michael, and all GNs. Looks set to be a reasonable day here today; while not actually sunny, it is currently bright and calm. I am off this morning to Ladybower for my first fishing day if the new season. I'm quite excited! Have a good day, whatever you're doing.

Good morning everyone.
Beautiful, bright sunshine in the Tyne Valley this morning. My knee is still painful, but not as bad as it was. DH has a day off today, and he wants to mend the greenhouse which was rather wrecked by storm Imogen. He bought the new glass yesterday, but is returning it today as he bought the wrong size.
Have a good day everyone.

Morning everyone,
It's lovely and sunny here today - just like yesterday, although I was feeling so ill all day with a head cold and spent a lot of the time in bed. This morning feeling a little better so far, fingers crossed.

It's day one of my preparation for a colonoscopy on Monday. Not a happy bunny at all sad. I never thought I would look forward to a dentist appointment, but that is on Wednesday so yes, this time I am looking forward to it!!!

Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning all!

It's very foggy in North Leicestershire this morning but the forecast for the weekend is warm and sunny - a chance to get some gardening done. Today it's Sainsbury's and the ironing!

Enjoy your days everyone sunshine

Morning Mick and All.

The sun is peeking through the mist in the Thames Valley, really lovely.

Hope all goes well for your GS's scan today Nana3.

Taking DH for a coffee to the new Italian Cafe in the town, he doesn't know he is going yet. grin

Good morning from a bright frosty Colchester. Woken by the sound of windscreens being scraped this morning.

Morning All. Grey and dismal in our corner of Somerset although the weather forecast has just assured us it is sunny. confused. Food shop today then I hope some downtime to nurse a cold germ. Hope Friday is kind to you.

Good morning Mick and everyone.
Yesterday turned out to be beautiful all day in Lancashire, especially by the coast where I was.
Looks like more of the same today, lovely colours in the sky just now.
GS having kidney scan (he has just one) this afternoon.

Morning Mick and everyone.

Haven't looked out yet but Sun is peeping through the curtains. Might try and finish planting two roses today. Mums as well.

Spring! So welcome.

Good morning Mick and all.
Dull and grey in N.Kent at the moment, but hoping for sun and a long walk today.

Now for a second coffee - I am SO going to miss this life when I return to work in a few weeks time!
