Group 7-day waking average?

I’ve been using Allclear for a while, they aren’t the cheapest, but they aren’t ridiculous either. We use them because they cover ancient wrinklies, and health conditions. OH is late 70s, as is my sister, who I’m travelling with later on in the year, and we all have various co-morbidities.
When I was looking for cover for my sister and I to go to Japan later in the year, a single trip on a comparison site was a couple of grand! I assume that’s their way of saying they really don’t want to cover you!
I’ll give them a call tomorrow, have a chat and see what they can do.
 
How did you get on at hospital Nick?

@silver minion

It was okay. I knew what to expect this time, although that didn't make it any easier. It is all psychological, as the actual injection doesn't really hurt. But it terrifies me, and I get quite emotional after. The after-effects are a very photophobic right eye and a massive two-day headache. This time I also have a black 'floater' which will go after a few days, I am told.

Oh yes and an 8.5 this morning

Morning 6.6 today
congrats on your HS @Sharron1also for yours yesterday @Pam123

I haven’t finished the giant jigsaw that is my new office corner just yet, but started it’s construction yesterday evening, it’s actually a bigger jigsaw than I thought it was going to be (with poor instructions) possibly the main unit is over-engineered to make it look more aesthetically pleasing, anyway hopefully it will do it’s job and I’m looking forward to being more organised once it’s all on the wall.

On Friday had a second phone call (I first spoke to her last week) someone my GP had referred me to she’s trying to help me better manage stress and anxiety which after what I went though a few months ago is much needed, we were having a really good chat when a neighbours daughter hammered on the door needing help as they had a water leek.

Have a Super Sunday ForumFriends :D
Updated Sunday evening office furniture now all put together, just need to get in order & start utilising
then I can have a sort out in my Bedroom

Looking forward to when my Mum's old Dining room table can again be used for its intended use.

Good evening folks.Very late posting today. 7.1 this morning. More fruit picking and processing again. Totals so far this week are 13 litres of perry, 18 litres of cider, 2 batches of greengage wine 17 litres in total. We still have a dozen or so pears to bottle and a couple of kgs of Victoria plums to make into jam, some of which will have fresh chilli added.
Our kitchen is beginning to smell like a brewery.
Congratulations on your HS @Sharron1

Hope you all had a good weekend and enjoyed the cooler weather. Take care and hugs to anyone not feeling chipper for whatever reason.
