I have mentioned in recent weeks I've not been feeling quite right, and suspected that my diabetes (T1) may have crept slightly out of control or change its characteristic somewhat has I am ageing. I'm normally rock solid stable so don't faff about with home blood testing - they're only really screening devices, not very accurate, and by the time they're telling you something is wrong you bloody well know about it anyway!
I had a blood test two weeks ago at the GP and that's come back slightly out of range, so he referred me for a priority appointment to the hospital. Guess what? I've just received a letter that I have a hospital appointment on Wednesday... On the telephone! I can quite understand that we all this virus malarkey that over the phone is probably a way to go, but I wonder what sort of examination they can to do over the blower!

Look on the bright side Drago, as it's a telephone consultation there's no need to change your Y fronts 👍

Good point!
Another advantage of the Y fronts is that they're a veritable petri dish of nasties, so I already enjoy immunity to everything from Covid 19 to Novichok.

I have returned from a slow 10 mile bimble. Looked like it was going to rain and I felt a few spots of rain in the air, but it held off.
Crikey, There is so much traffic on the roads now as well.
The Himalayan Balsom has started to bloom as well.

I had a walk before lunch. The Grockles are here too! The car park at the local park is full to overflowing.
Had a huge tuna pasta salad for lunch.

Confession time 
I woke with a hangover today.
TBH I expected it as I mixed my drinks too much yesterday.
Was up before 0600 but with a banging headache and feeling groggy. Been back to bed and enjoyed a good 90 minutes kip.
Feel much better now and headache is a slight dull pain.
Hey ho....I will learn one day

Hangover? That'll teach you to stop drinking.
