Still waiting...

The post comes and the post goes and still no appointment letter. getting really fed up with it all now. It seems such a long time since the gynae appointment, and yet no further on really. patience Jennifer!! Rafts of medals now appearing in the games. can't say that i understand many of the sports, except the easy ones like the first past the post ones, or tennis, but the cyclists seem to be doing really well. They look so weird with their black wheels and their super sleek helmets. Haven't a clue what judp is about, or the beach volley ball for that matter. Everyone seems very excited though. Lovely picture of Prince William and Kate cheering on the cyclists yesterday, really happy pic of them hugging each other. can't see his dad doing that somehow! Vin went out to Formby this morning to get the weekend things. There was a coupon in the Mail yesterday for £5 of a spend of £25 so he went there for the stuff. there were a number of things that we get from there anyway, so it wasn't too difficult to spend £25. He got some good offers too..stone baked pizzas for three for two, two salads for an offer price etc., he's getting to be very good at shopping. mind you he says he misses having me to push around in the shops. he has a terrible habit of "guiding" me out of the way when someone is going past, drives me mad!! Just watching the news before, and the jury have returned a guilty verdict on the Shafilia Ahmed case on both of her parents. terrible case that one, she was a 17yr old who was quite westernised and the parents didn't like it, so they murdered her. it was a long time before the body was found and the both of the lied dreadfully. Both the police and the prosecution service have done well on that case, as did their older daughter Alesha who gave evidence against them and really broke the case for the police. The parents have got life with a minimum of 25 years each.Good..that poor girl must have had a horrible life. We have had a lot about the case on our local news because it was a very local case and it has been interesting seeing the case unfold. So justice for Shafelia at last.

My birthday orchid is looking gorgeous and in full bloom, which is more than can be said for moi!! Thankyou Vin it was a lovely birthday present.XXX Tonight we are having: pasties from Waitrose with some little baby sauteed mushrooms. Rice pudding from Waitrose..big treat!
