Blimey, after spending the worst part of a week in various stages between discomfort and agony, I have just received a tentative diagnosis of Gallstones. Well at least it wasn't wind!
Having exchanged a few tubes of blood for a prescription slip I lugged my pointless carcass out of the surgery and to Gore's pharmacy. Like a sad figure of Quasimodo round the streets of Prestwich I coughed up nearly fifteen quid for some desperate pain relief. Remind me again, what are those hidden perks of working for the NHS? Oh yes.... There aren't any!!
Still, I finally arrived home slumped on my bed like a marine based invertibrate and popped my medicines. Half an hour later I slept like a kitten.

Garden Matters
Last weekend was the first time Sam and I have had to straighten the outside if our home. I took the exhausting role of grass chopper. The seasonal growth was such that the mower became redundant and I needed to hack away with the strimmer. Sam picked up her spade and attempted to dig up the roots of megalithic weeds.
The ground now set, we want to push forward with our plans to cultivate portions of the garden and prepare to invite half a dozen chickens to come and live in an eggy heaven with us next spring.
