      I managed to get a phone consultation with my Doctor for 9am to 11am today.

      I rushed around in the bathroom to get downstairs in time, and nothing. I'm not happy, they can get stuffed now waiting by the phone for 2 hours.

      I have registered for a Antibody Home Test on the 111 helpline.

      I'm 100% sure I caught Covid when the schools went back, I'm now 100% since October 2020 I have had Long Covid

      All I wanted to do is to ask my Dr if there are any ways of helping me with my Fatigue.

            Don't worry, it is quite likely to be the right way up by the time it arrives from California. At least you have a one in six chance. :roflol:

            Just finished lunch and decided to go sit outside when they started spraying the orchards (which border us on 3-1/2 sides! So now it completely ponks out there but the breeze should blow it away soon. Van Dyson was asleep on his Crow's Nest in the Jacaranda where he snoozes every day and he came in like a rocket was up him and shot under our bed (his safe hiding place). Upside is free oranges, downside is the spraying.

            There are currently fronds on it which hide him. :cat-kittyandsmiley:

                You do not have to have it fitted anyway. Doesn't matter what they say about it. They can refuse to supply you but then you just move to another supplier. :thumbsup:

                  I wouldn't be worried about covid, its not like everyone has it by any means.:smile:
                  I'd be more worried about the meter, dont want one of those.

                        We occasionally get asked, by email, if we want it but I just say no. All meter reading I do by email and rarely get them wanting to check it.

                          My driving licence expired last year apparently - good job there was an exceptional 11 month extension due to covid.

                          A reminder letter has just come through - a tidy £21.50 for renewal of the photo on my licence. Nice little earner. There's no point - I still look that same as I did when I was 20...I think anyway..:biggrin:
