Mo instead of going into Perth why not try your local GP for an opinion on your wrist? Surely Crieff has some sort of Cottage Hospital where they may have a minor injuries unit to check you out but the local surgery should be able to point you in the right direction. Anyway get well soon.
Bright sunny start and forecast to be a nice day so I must get out for a trike run before the bad weather appears tomorrow.
The ponies have gone from the field opposite. They belong to somebody who moved here without first checking out what was available.
We are getting a lot of queries on FB. " We have bought a house and come to live here, where is the best place for food shopping?" Or another " We have bought a house and come to live here. Is there a school for my 8 year old child and where is it?"
Obviously fleeing from another country without checking anything in advance.
This appears to be happening all over the Highlands and Islands with people with lots of money buying houses blind which forces local workers out of the market.
Before we came to live here we checked everything out before deciding to take the job offer. We thought the house was not up to our accustomed standard but that was the only caveat.

Good morning everyone. The promised severe frost did not arrive and we have a glorious morning in sunny Lancashire.
@Mo1959 I'm pleased to hear you feel better but must join the chorus urging you to seek a medical opinion. A phone triage could be the first step.
Today marks the first day of training for the Fred Whitton. A simple one hour ride.
I suspect we will go for a 4-5 mile walk, there is ironing to do and @Paulus I bought lamb shanks yesterday so I have some cooking to do.
It must be pushing 3 months since I did anything productive. It's the first of the month, a beautiful day so I I'm resolving to kick myself in to action. I have a lot of timber on the allotment which needs turning in to kindling. I will begin this, productive, fresh air and active.

When I saw Runrig had been on oh ...... missed it . Checked the schedules its on again Saturday. Thanks Flick without your post I would have missed it.
@PaulSB just letting you know, we got your share of frost.....thanks for that 
.
Just been for our Covid jabs. It was all done in the outer corridors of the rugby club. We got there at 0900 and were out by 0920 but it was freezing cold.....sitting on cold chairs and queueing in the cold......not a lot of fun.

It may have been then. After the lockdown ended, Well the last lockdown anyway. I wanted to get it done before the winter. Had 1 or 2 other things done as well that needed to be looked at just in case We Had another lockdown and couldn't get the work done.

Everyone aware "Mom's Taxi" is now out of service?
