OH has had quite a few of those treadmill tests and, although he didn't particularly like them. I think I was more nervous than he was. I can't remember him ever mentioning sandpaper. :-S


The first one he did back in '85, they took him off after 1 min. He had his bypass a few days later :-0


Have been busy Christmas shopping for the last couple of hours.....online of course :-D :-D


I am a numpty. Totally. Admittedly. I was all set up to go and see my Health Trainer and OH reminded me about my appointment card. When I looked at it, the appointment was for 10am not 11.30am. Even worse.....it's for Wednesday, not today!!!!! :-S :-S :-S


Never mind, got a whole lot of ironing done and OH went out for TWO walks!!! :-D

Silly Cynthia !!! :-D

Never mind, at least you spent a nice day with your ironing and I bet you lost some more lbs with those two walks ;-)

Perhaps the 'sandpaper' is not a widely used thing - it may be that she was just a 'sadistic' nurse, although it may also be that it is something which has been found to work in these circumstances.

After all, if the leads drop off when you start to get hot and sticky midway through the test, you would have to start all over again and, to be homest, I would rather have a few tender red patches for a few days than have to go through that twice !!

Haven't caught up with the news much just yet but it looks as though some have been killed in the dreadful weather in the States. Hoping all our friends from GR are keeping safe. <3

P.S. - Is Halloween tonight or tomorrow ??

I had thought it was tonight but I think I am wrong?

Dea Xxx

All Hallows Eve is the 31st of October.

Thank you Jonesey !!

Nice to see you - how are 'you and your's' ???

Dea Xxx <3

Doing much as expected Dea. My daughter has now been transferred to a different hospital which handles longer stay patients rather than short term emergency ones.

Cyns has spent all polishing her broomstick ;-)

Is it quite near to you and the family for visiting Jonesey ?

Dea Xxx

Jonesey.......your daughters car must have been hit at some speed?

How is she bearing up?

Is anyone in touch with 'our Mo' in NY ??

It looks pretty bad there??

Dea Xxx

Have to take the '00' number !!
