dusty that 'contraption' looks as if it should have a face painted on the front grin

dustyangel Sat 05-Nov-16 17:01:33

Strange seems to work with one but not more .hmm

dustyangel Sat 05-Nov-16 17:00:21

Just checking to see if I can post a photograph.

Galen Sat 05-Nov-16 16:59:09

lona I remember that object as well.

dustyangel Sat 05-Nov-16 16:54:39

Beautiful soop, I love the way you can see the reflection of the sun on the water.

Charleygirl Sat 05-Nov-16 16:41:06

soop these are breathtaking. Not quite like that here in London.

soop Sat 05-Nov-16 16:39:04

One more...moon

Charleyg A new week with new challenges. I'm about to log off. I've spent too much time on the puter. Washing machine needs emptying. My feet are cold. I have a pair of sheepskin slippers loitering in the bedroom. hmm

Andy Murray has made it to the Number One spot. He deserves it. A superb achievement.

Wishing one and all a pleasant and peaceful Saturday evening.

The sunset pic taken yesterday, is a thank you for your support and friendship.

Charleygirl Sat 05-Nov-16 15:54:53

soop Monday is the start to a new week and with luck you may get closure re the notes. I find it unbelievable that you had to do all the work yourself,(with a little help from your friends!)

My solicitor who is sorting out my will and LPA is so efficient I cannot keep up with her. The carrot at the end of her stick is payment. It is now out of my hands.

Wobblybits Sat 05-Nov-16 15:13:04

Thanks for that vision Crafting hmm

soop Sat 05-Nov-16 14:49:46

It's a sparkling day in sunny Kintyre. Beautiful white-capped waves and an almost clear blue sky. It's also a tad parky around the nethers. Long, winceyette bloomers would be a bonus.

Jalima shock what a to-do. I could hardly believe my eyes when I read about the "doctored" notes. Who knows what complications might have resulted (in future treatment) had your GP not corrected the records. Sit down and I shall make you a brew...

Crafting Thank you for making me laugh. I can imagine Wobbly wearing a leopard-design, lycra leotard, and doing all manner of fancy things on a trampoline. I can't get
get the image out my mind. wink

Charleyg The NHS will be mighty glad to see the back end of me. Roll on next month. All this business might be at an end. Whatever the outcome, I shall not be sorry to have much better things to occupy my mind.

Glad you got your records sorted out Soop smile

Crafting Fri 04-Nov-16 20:42:11

wobbly', I've told you before, you must stop using your bed as a trampoline! grin Poor Mrs P falling out like that. Thank goodness she wasn't hurt.

Wobblybits Fri 04-Nov-16 20:02:39

The twenty questions thread has started again, come and add you little grey cells to the cause

Jalima Fri 04-Nov-16 19:41:33

Oh, poor Mrs P!! flowers for her!
It reminds me of when we had an earthquake in the UK while I was at work. My colleague's husband phoned just afterwards and asked her if 'the earth had moved for her, too' grin.

soop so glad your GP's records are good and that you are getting everything sorted at last!
Better than our GP anyway - when I went for a visit a couple of years ago because of a shoulder injury, the GP went through my records with me and some of the things on there (including operations!) did not relate to me at all. Apparently there is another patient on their books with the same name and someone transcribed the written ones on to the computer wrongly.

Wobblybits Fri 04-Nov-16 19:34:21

I would point out that we had no criticism of Warners Gunton hall. The venue was great, as was the food, entertainment ans chalet. I'm sure we will go there again. Had they not been fully booked they would have moved us closer.
When we have been to other Warners, our standard of dancing was below par, at Gunton Hall we would have put up a good show.

Charleygirl Fri 04-Nov-16 18:56:04

Wobbly Mrs.P was extremely lucky that she did not # her hip!

Sorry that this break did not come up to expectations but hopefully that lady has sorted the pair of you out re rooms etc. It is up to the physio now to get the pair of you moving.

soop at least you now have evidence that you had surgery done at that particular hospital and with luck things can now get moving but what a palaver. You know that us lot will help you any time that you want.

soop Fri 04-Nov-16 18:12:25

Wobbly Oh, you've just this minute made me laugh out loud. grin

soop Fri 04-Nov-16 18:11:28

Wobbly I'm also sorry to hear that your wee get-away didn't come up to your expectations. It was an experience from which you have learned what it is that you and your wife need to help you to relax and enjoy all that your hearts desire. The lady in the Warners holiday shop is the best person to be of assistance in such matters. Better times in store. Trust me.
We all hope that you benefit from a few sessions with a trained physiotherapist.

I'm away for today. I haven't achieved much of what I had planned on getting out of bed. Some days are like that.

Love to you all. Until tomorrow smile moon

Wobblybits Fri 04-Nov-16 18:03:47

Oh yes and the earth moved for MrsP, she fell out of bed !, and she was sober. luckily she was unhurt, stirred but not shaken.

cornergran Fri 04-Nov-16 17:41:19

That's better soop. Don't think for a moment anyone minded you sharing your worry. Several heads are always better than one, especially a worried one smile

Sorry you have both had a disappointing week, wobbly. Can understand the impact, it's horrible not only to be in pain but to be frustrated at not being able to do the things that lift the spirits. Or indeed access the spirits grin. Sounds as if you will be better placed for your next breaks. The physio has got to help. Tell your physiotherapist it has to!

dustyangel Fri 04-Nov-16 17:37:04

I'm sorry your break didn't do you any good WB. Pain is very draining. I hope the physio does you both a world of good and you can enjoy your next break.

Wobblybits Fri 04-Nov-16 17:28:20

Back home again. Our romantic break didn't live up to it's billing.

Our room was very pleasant with a view across the lake, but it was too far away for us to manage. We were also disappointed that we could not do or join in with so many of the things we had hoped. Mrs P got very down, this added to he constant pain she is in was too much.
We have 2 more Warners holidays booked, the lady in the holiday shop has reviewed our bookings and moved us into rooms close to the attractions (like the restaurant & bar smile)
We start our physio on Monday, so lets hope they can improve our situation.

thatbags Fri 04-Nov-16 17:07:09

Oh, good! Let's hope things can move on satisfactorily now.
