next door back
Not sure when, but probably late yesterday.

Sha next week
My guess that it would be a bum injection this week was wrong.
Next week I have an appointment with sha at 9.30 to start this off.
So slow

NHS system failure
Tried to get in, but failed when it tried to confirm who I was using a text to ....609.
I think I am now stuck again.
This is not a well designed system.
M
work at Robs
Something happening, but not sure what. It was late afternoon, so will find out tomorrow, after my bum jab session.
M
no key
Went to fives without my keys. Luckily T understood the telephone call, and doorbell ringing, and soon let me in. Gareth was my able assistant.
M
update problem
Seems as if there is some problem with a system update. No idea where the problem is. I will close and restart.
I also allowed it to use phone connection. This followed various failures. It now seems to have worked.
No idea what the issue was. I have cut off the phone update route again, because I dont want to pay extra.

Sue and co
No signs of imminent return, with Volvo in drive. They must have been away almost a fortnight.
M
Rob's beech
Talked to Rob, yesterday about problems with his tree and beeches in general. He was going to check with council what they would be doing. I think it will be removed pronto.
M
Tamulosin
New prescription is slightly different, with single colour shell. It might have a longer time in the blood stream.
M
Honda
Offering Owen the car, for him to do whatever he wants to do with it. He can sell it for scrap, or use at university. Entirely up to him as to what to do.

how to keep phone running?
My main phone appears to shut down after say an hour, and then need restarting. Maybe I need a little program to run pretty continuously, or be restarted regularly to keep things alive?

work
My paper work pile is virtually empty.
M
weather
Looks as if it is about to break.
Things really need the water.
A cloudburst would ruin no 1's front bed, as grandpa hes recently broken up the surface, and I guess could be swept into the road.
M
bank
Paid in two dividend cheques without any issues. The bank clerk was very helpful.
Had a good joke with the person behind me in the queue.
Staffing is amazingly small nowadays.

radio programs
I have set up a base for these afresh. Hope it works and does not clog things.
M
earth moving
The compost heap is basically open, and the contents can be easily moved to the garage area, and spread out. Weather should be cooler as well.
Target is to expose the tree stumps, and cut it down. Should be manageable.
M
sparrows
There are some regularly in the passage between houses. But not sure exactly where or if the is a nesting site. Watch this space.
M
beech tree
Not looking so good. The buds are drying up, and will not open afaics.
Don't know about the total tree, but not looking good.
M
pembury
Session was just about my cancer treatment. Basically back on the bum jabs starting next wednesday 9am.

radio, cassette player
I switched this off fully, and would hope it stays that way. However it might restart when the laptop starts in the morning. Watch this space.
M
timeout
This machine, tablet from china, has a pretty swift time out for starting to key in a password. So normally you have to give it a nudge of some sort. This can be a bit unnerving. But you don't have to restart or anything like it.
One of the other machines always seems to want to restart completely, and I am thinking this may be a mistake, and you could effectively just type in the password here as well.
Worth a think.
M
Custard
I finished off the caramel custard, that I had brought for the rhubarb crumble. A couple of days out of date, but so what. This was only second time out of the fridge. Delicious
M
swifts
Saw six swifts together in screaming flight fairly high up. This would be about 9 pm.
M
setting watch
Still trying to remember how to set my watch. I suppose i will have to ask the internet.
M
beech
Rob's beech tree still seems stuck, despite the better weather. I am rather nervous about it.
M
bank holiday
Luckily buses and waitrose were fine.
The weather was too hot, but the bus air conditioning worked fine.
Much better walking past mathews to get the bus.
