I got a ladies in pigs cookery book, a cupcake cookery book and muffin cake tin. Very expensive slippers (£75), yes he must love me. Lots of chocs.  I bought OH a book of 45 Hen Coop designs. Do you think he will get the message?

I got the best surprise ever, my son his wife and children all the way from Wales on Christmas Eve just left this morning. Santa managed to find our house with loads of toys much to the delight of the children.

Santa brought me a large pack of antiobiotics courtesy of a hurried trip to A&E on Xmas eve along with a ban on drinking alcohol for a week.  Oh well, New Year resolution was going to be a month off, so just started a bit early!

I'm nearly 60 and a bloke so more detail is perhaps unnecessary except that the doctor and I mostly talked b*****ks.  Then he prescribed the wrong antibiotic so I was back in A+E yesterday for the right one, which is working very quickly.  My GP is 65 and fantastic because he's ahead of me getting all the problems and I benefit from his experience.  He gets free honey and stuff.....

Verity, our vet, was stood on by one of her ungrateful patients and broke some bones.  Attending the fracture clinic at the same hospital she read her notes and then corrected them.  The doctor had misread the X-rays.  Its aways a confidence booster when 8 days after the break he announces that the bones have knit when the x-ray shows a large gap.

Just hope I don't have to use your A&E department any time soon....

Scary, isn't it?  We put our trust in doctors and most of them are fine but then you get the odd one or two....  :(
