Now if I tell you this post is about darts and football, can you guess which belongs to which title word?! Tough one hm? OK, maybe not – yes, we lost at darts again on Friday, but almost every game was very close. The first trebles game had all six players stuck on x1 for [...]

I’m really going to have to get the hang of keeping up with my blog, whilst juggling hospital work, clinic, family, home, football and darts, aren’t I?! I am woman – therefore I can do it, and I will. I’ve spent most of my time (Weds to Sunday inclusive) at my clinic this week, working [...]

As you saw from my brief post at the beginning of the week – it really was an awful day at work on Monday. I couldn’t get on with my work, and I had an unhappy GP, an aggressive secretary and a couple of grumpy patients, with whom to cope. I managed to maintain my [...]

Sorry for the wait! On Sunday, Sol and Louisa’s little girl, Lucy, (aged 1) was Christened in the Methodist Church just a ten minute walk away. We got ourselves “suited and booted” and out of the house by 10.10am, with Billy muttering that little Lucy better appreciate him being out of bed so “early” on [...]

Saturday morning started with me waking up late. Two hours late. Very, very rare for me, as I always wake up, naturally, at 5.30-6.30am and therefore never need to set an alarm. It wasn’t as though I’d had a late night Friday either – my busy couple of weeks caught up with me and I [...]

I spent all of Thursday at the clinic, with the morning occupied in assembling the desk. It was quite a well designed one – no glue and dowels to hold drawers together, but proper cam locks, and plenty of them – so it’s quite a solid desk I have. I spent the afternoon setting up [...]

14 today. (Agh, I’m not old enough. I’m NOT! ) My beautiful, kind, generous, shy, artistic baby is growing up into a lovely young woman, and I think we’re getting closer the older she gets. Tonight Laura has two friends sleeping over, (I bet there’s not much sleeping – more like all night giggling!) and [...]

I sat down to watch the FA Cup replay City v Seffield Wednesday last night, expecting the worst. For the beginning of the first half, I felt my fears were justified, but gradually we started trying a bit harder and having some chances. Vassel managed to miss a couple of one-on-ones, which was disappointing, but [...]

Well I got my physical rest at work yesterday – apart from the fact that I never walk up the stairs, I always jog, and when I did that first time yesterday my legs protested a bit. I did loosen up by the end of the day however, and will probably be the same today [...]

We were back at the clinic at 9am on Sunday – with the car loaded up with the last of the furniture and some of the miscellaneous items, including the computer and printer. Billy carried all the heavy stuff up (to the second floor) for me, and then we took the car home again – [...]
