There is one more major task for me to perform, which could potentially take up to 24 hours, though normally just a couple of hours. Terry and I have discussed the best time to carry this out and have decided that Thursday morning is the best time. So, I will make the changes on Thursday...

I think I belong to one of the most disjointed Doctors surgery's in Britain! On Tuesday I spoke with a Doctor on the phone, she said I did need to see her and to leave it with her to make the appointment. On Wednesday morning I get a text message from the surgery to IGNORE any appointment texts...
