	Good evening everyone Glad all seems OK from the hospital Rita, really annoying about the parking though. Hope you are having a great day Marilyn. 21 eh? Have you been given the key to the door? The holiday was lovely and very restful, just what we needed. We had a lovely couple of days in Usk, met up with Jude at the show. Safe trip to Cornwall and had a beautiful stay at the Prince of Wales with amazing food all very super doopa. Then down to a friend of hubby's further down in a village with only 9 houses !!! Very relaxing amazing breakfasts I got my smoked fish and poached egg for breakfast too. Lovely meals at other times in other places too. Finally got rid of the tooth abcess after 8 days or so with the antibiotics. But part has broken now and it will be taken out at the begining of October. I managed to loose a whole pound while we were away !!! Yippee and eating more too. Been to the gym today for our medical assessment and for them to work out a programme for us to follow. Back tomorrow for my first proffesional trainer session to show me what I need to do. Hubby has his after me. Well we had a good journey back as far as Longleat turn on the A303, near Stonehenge about 200 miles. Then the car stopped no drive no power. Phoned our breakdown and they came out in less than 30 mins. Couldn't find or fix the problem. Made the car safer off the edge of the road and we waited for a breakdown tow truck. Only another 20 mins so OK. Loaded the car then hoisted me into the huge cab. We were home by 7:00 so not too bad. Today a local garage has taken the car to see what is wrong? Hopefully it won't be too expensive. She says with fingers crossed. Have had tea with my friend and daughter this afternoon. Washing was done but not very dry today. Ironing tonight. Hubby only has 7 more days at work !!! Yippee. Hope everyone is well Take care Linda :-) <3

	I am back the professor was late with his appointments so that made me late. he said he will see me in three months time and sorted a date out for 3rd January. I have to have a scan done 10 days before that. The lady that took me was from Goldsworth Care they have yellow stickers for the windows, and we parked near an ambulance the part we parked in said for hospital drivers and ambulance. as she was a hospital driver she asked and he told her it was OK as long as she was not there too long. she got a ticket £40 for staying an hour.we told him we would be about an hour. that did upset me. she said it is not your fault. she is lodging a complaint tomorrow.

	Marilyn is such a nice person. She waited 4 hours so that her sister had a chance for a lot of attention, before she put in her own grand appearance. Or is she just a slow coach or perhaps jealous of the attention that sis was getting and reluctant to appear in case she was ignored? Huia.
