Unusual weather effect this morning. When I went down to Main St it was fog free but the upper part of town was blanketed with fog. Usually it is the other way round with the top of the town free of fog.

GP visit not what I expected.
She wanted to look in my eyes!
It seems my latest blood tests show liver function a bit low which could mean trouble with my overstuffed gal bladder and lead to jaundice.
This illustrates a problem with the current system of ever rotating doctors and you rarely see the same one twice. The result is they only know what the computer tells them about your recent medical history.
In fact my liver function has been low but unchanging for a considerable time if they look back far enough.
I need more vitamin C apparently but cannot drink orange juice as she suggested due to it being a bit acidic which upsets my hiatus hernia. Cannot win and another penalty of bring ancient.

There's more Vitamin C in broccoli than oranges

Black bin emptied very quickly today, dragged it back whilst the coffee pod machine was doing its work.
Cold still lingering.
Late afternoon and IT claimed they had fixed Office 365. I'll try it tomorrow was the completely unenthusiastic response.

A little note on my early night last night.I was in bed at 21-00 with chemo chills,bed is the only place to get warm.Mrs P was out at a church meeting.I fell asleep,no hearing aids in.Mr P's key would not open the door,it has been playing up recently.She banged and banged it did not wake me no good phoning i would not hear the landline or my mobile that i turn off.So she tried one more time after shaking the door handle,it worked.So today a locksmith changed the lock,all is well and we now have five keys and a ten year warranty.That lock will be here long after i have gone to the big cycling sorting office.

Day 3 of work completed for the week and we're all running down our cases in preparation for training and a new adventure from next week.

Twenty miles cycled this evening again and I did my usual after-work loop in the opposite direction for a change! A slight drizzle in a change to all the recent dry weather. Tonight must be national drive at silly speed on single track road day.

Listening to some Jazz on the wireless now. :music:

In other news, My computer tells me today Robert Louis Stevenson's birthday. I love his books and have read most of them many times.

It's similar to down here,Yorkshire. I've not seen the same doctor on two visits, much less consecutive visits, in the last twelve years.
I got used to it a long time ago. Repeating the same stuff I'd told previous doctors, sometimes for the 4th or 5th time. Often it wasn't in the records, so how could I know about it.
 
It's been a sunny but slightly chilly day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept ok-ish. Pulled out of the weekly dog walk as my knee still isn't right. Although I did spend some time in the garden rounding up some firewood. There is a lot of deadfall that's worth cutting up for logs - ordinarily I'd just drag it in, but I will take the mower and trailer as it will make my life easier. I also did some laundry.

Skipped luncheon as the snottage is still proving to be an issue, and went grocery shopping this afternoon. Didn't go for final reductions in Tesco, but got lucky on sticker nonetheless. For things I want to buy / are on my list, a 40% discount is still pretty handy. Some things were reduced by up to 60%...

Picked up haddock in beer batter, three packs of ham (two sliced, one ham pieces), a pack of spicy cooked chicken, a job lot of baking potatoes, green beans, pears and a cob bread from the ISB.

Went for petrol, and then stopped off at Waitrose on the way home (I have to drive past anyway) to buy some herrings and my favourite peppermint sweets that Tesco no longer stock. Got lucky in there as they were clearing the counters, and got a large piece of wild pacific salmon and three whole sea bass on sticker.

Soup, a roast beef sandwich and a :cuppa: for supper. Now having a quiet evening.
