A foggy day...


Awake early and listening to King Crimson...

Up, breakfasted and then Pam and I were out and about...

Firstly to her GP to pick up her sick line, then to the chemist to pick up some more steroids, then into Hemel centre and parked at Asda, allowing Pam to go to Boots to have her glasses fixed...


A look in the local charity shops resulted in Pam acquiring Police and Bryan Ferry CDs, whilst your correspondent opted for Girls Aloud...

Then, a mammoth shopping session in Asda, picking up provisions for the next few days...

After dropping off the shopping and a quick coffee, it was back out again, this time to the dentist for Pam to undertake a filling - but sans anaesthetic due to her recent op...

Then we drove to nearby Watford to the hospital...


...where Pam was treated at the start of the month when it was initially, mistakenly, believed she'd suffered a stroke rather than the brain tumour subsequently discovered and removed at the Royal Free in London and upon which tests have been carried out, the results of which she will receive tomorrow...

I had some paperwork to be signed off and, with this done, we headed back home for a late lunch...

The opening hour or so of "Flushed Away" was enjoyed, before we set off for a diverting visit to Pam's chum, camera shy Debbie and her wee cat Murphy for a few hours...



Back home just before 8 and I cooked dinner, pork in tomato and creme fraiche sauce with red onion and sweet pepper...





Post dinner, some phone calls and relaxing in front of the telly, staving off going to bed, though Pam is sleeping in her chair as I type and Robert Fripp's soundscapes are soothing...

A big day tomorrow...

Highlight of the Day : Hanging out with my sister...
