I don’t mind the thunder & the lightning: all for 'em as a rule. Downpour is a bit much, though, and poor Oaf is exceedingly unhappy.
Bah!

After a day of rain punctuated by downpours and causing me to close the conservatory doors over and have the stove lighted as I was freezing I am glad to see a bit of blue sky

Dear dear some of the gin got too near the storm and now it’s on the turn. (That’s how that works, right?) Drink up!

May I have a celebration?
Five years ago I was referred to the orthopod for a new knee
He has been waiting for an mri and eventually was told he would have to refer me to another hospital for the mri and he said that is a bit silly when I need the heamotology department on tap
So an x ray will suffice for him to see my knackerated knee

I’ll celebrate with you gladly, Twellsy. 
for starters.

Thank you dear wee bee
I am just relieved to be getting some help for my knee
My Grandma who’s body I have inherited was confined to a wheelchair because her knees were so painful and my mother insisted that nothing could be done so refused to even ask her GP for a referral to an orthopaedic surgeon
Many years of pain caused by a stubborn woman’s refusal to see that medical matters moved on in the 30 years since she was a nurse

And a GP happy to things ride; he must take some blame.

He was unaware as Grandma was very healthy and never saw him

My mother was a steamroller who was darned nearly impossible to reason with
She nearly wrecked our marriage with her interference when I was first I’ll
She even tried to take me from a bed in the neurology ward to her house so I would be safe and nursed over a clot in my brain
When I say I escaped l mean it about leaving home and building my life my way
I also will never go near my sister as I prefer not being a punchbag
I have a lovely Bull and lots of real friends so I am well off
