Welcome back
@Toony Oony although seeing the weather, you are probably wishing you were still there. The post holiday laundry seems to take forever, not helped by the disappearance of the sunshine to dry it in hours
I tried a nasal spray once, I didn’t feel like I had blocked sinuses, but apparently I had & they were causing inner ear issues ... might be worth a shot while you try for a doctor appointment. It always fascinated me that you can’t book an appointment with my doctor more than 2 weeks in advance, but they always want me to go back in a month.
Mind you, I’ve also had the ridiculous situation of phoning, to be told there is nothing till next Thursday (a week away), but they refused to book for that date, saying I had to call at 08.00 the next day
The car seems ok. It’s wider, higher & slighly longer than the old one. I have to keep telling myself to move slightly further to the left as I do drive to the middle of the road. The height is good for visibility & I'm getting better at parking. I’ve has one male car, eldest was at “that” age, where he thought it funny to climb in & say “home James” .. so the car became James. All others have been female. So far, a name has not been found
She’ll be Gerty or Berty at this rate
The concertina file just simplified it. Although there is a tendency to only file the beginning of the alphabet, so every now & then, I pull out the “fattest” section & file that. It reduces the volume & looks like I’ve done lots more than I have
Good that your mum survived without any mishaps in your absence, even noticing you looked better for your break. Hope the loss of eye baggage is maintained for a while
