Hi Minty, hmm, this is going to confuse a simple country bumpkin like myself.
2 gmebs?

[murraymints]

morning Oz .. hope you are well doon under.. xx

[LadyCG]

Good morning, Minty. Thank you for all your painstaking work yesterday. It was very welcome news about Emmie.

How are you feeling now? xx

[murraymints]

I am not bad now ta LCG.. other than having to face the torrents oot there to do a shopping today !

[murraymints]

morning btw xx

[LadyCG]

I need help, GMEBers! I'm stuck in Groundhog Day and it's 26 October !!

[murraymints]

hmmm...??

[LadyCG]

Shopping can go and whistle for me! I'm going to my in-laws tonight for dinner and they're coming to us tomorrow night. I think we're having chicken chasseur. Again.

She's lovely really my MIL. She's got some of my favourite fizz in for me, bless her. I could have just done with a quiet night in :-/

[murraymints]

hope you have a very pleasant evening

[LadyCG]

OH, sorry, I'm doing the backlog of the Lipid and Weight Management Clinics and I can't seem to move past 26 October. I've been at it for two mornings and two evenings now.

[murraymints]

my goodness that is a weighty subject ! ;0)

[LadyCG]

I hope I don't fall asleep in the armchair!! They have invited us to stop over but I've got so much to do and I know if we do stop over it'll be the full English in the morning and I really don't need it. They did say little G can sleep there if he wants to go to bed and we can get a taxi back.

OH actually asked if I would be ready for 5pm?!! I don't finish work until 4pm. Where do men get their ideas from?

How's the Long COVID now?

[murraymints]

Long Covid is alas still hinging ...some days better than others..

[LadyCG]

I've got to be honest, I prefer the Lipid ones to the Weight Management ones. Familial hypercholesterolaemia is much more interesting than bariatric surgery. There is at least some variation between patients and sometimes the odd genetic condition I've never heard of before.

[murraymints]

I expect to have a very quiet Hogmanay and visit friends on New Years Day for eats..

[murraymints]

it must be interesting at times !

[LadyCG]

That sounds like a civilised plan, Minty. I just want a low-key NYD.

Probably not as interesting as Oncology, as every case is different with that. I would love to spend some time in Genetics though. I think that would be fascinating.

[murraymints]

I hope to steer clear of any hospital associations fora good while to come !

[LadyCG]

My fingers are crossed for you.

I've had COVID three times and been largely unaffected but some days I wonder whether I have long pneumonia. Since the first episode I've never been right, and yet my latest chest x-ray came back clear. Doc says it's not exacerbation of asthma as the Salbutamol does not provide any relief. I might ask to be referred to the Respiratory Physician...

[murraymints]

it was a bit of a minefield and a trial navigating a certain London Hospital yesterday !!
