I didn’t not do nothing!

09/03/2008 by Aileen.

When I said I wa at a loose end yesterday I had already done a bit. I had been to the dentist for a checkup. I got there 10 minutes early and was seen 20 minutes late. I then had to hang around while my payment details were sent via intranet to the reception, and eventually I was asked to fill in a new health details form. I was there for nearly 45 minutes, though the check up must have lasted less then 5. They have the cheek to say that if you are more than 5 minutes late for an appt. you may not be seen. I think they should enter into a reciprocal contract and endeavour to see patients within 10 minutes. Oh well. At least my teeth are fine. Not American white you know, but not in need of treatment.

After the dentist I went to South Cave Farmers’ Market and bought a chicken, some veg. and 6 spicy tuna fish cakes!

After blogging Martin and Fiona skyped me so we had a chat. It was Fiona’s birthday and they were going out for a meal in the evening to a place called The Jam Factory! Apparently it’s where Robertsons used to make marmalade, which sounds even funnier. Then Ali skyped me so there was more chat. Kieran is fascinated by Skype. It gives him an opportunity to see our three cats, as when visitors come two of them, Sugar and Spice, disappear.

The rest of the day was spent in studying.

Poor old John is not at all well. He thinks it’s a urine infection. He only ate a few biscuits all day and has been drinking cranberry juice and water. He asked me to sleep in the guest room last night as he wanted to toss and turn. I was just dropping off to sleep when he called me. He had spilt his glass of cranberry juice and there was juice and glass everywhere! I was not a happy bunny. When I got up this morning about 7am I discovered I had left his main light on all night. He hadn’t noticed it at first, and didn’t like to wake me again. What an ogre I must be! Or how thoughtful he must be!!
