My friends are either in The Canaries or the Spanish mainland, lucky blighters !
Mrs. T has various ongoing problems, whereas I had a wasted journey to a London teaching hospital for my annual check-up, to be informed that they hadn't analysed my most recent CT scan and also should have had a MRI scan; nor had they managed to find the results of the armful of blood that I gave at my local hospital last week. I had to give another blood sample while there, and was told that they would ring me with the results yesterday. The phone call eventually came today giving me the all clear for another year, thankfully.
