Outing!

First time in ages. I had to get a blood test done so we decided to go yesterday. Left for Aintree at around half past ten and got there quite quickly. Vin parked outside the Elective care part of the hospital and walked me up to where they are done.  There was only one man waiting and as we got there the man can out of the blood test room and he got up to go with him so I was mext in.  Things done a bit differently, before we went into the corridor where the tests are done a nurst took our temperatures before and we were fine. Vin left me to go and park the car and actually i went straight in.  All masked obviously, got them from the front entrance. Came out of the test room to be told that there is a one way system turn right and first left door. put you outside the lifts. No sign of Vin so went down anyway. The lift door opened and there he was! he didn't have to move the car and we went straight out. One of the quickest procedures i have ever done there. 

Home then, via a little trip to Tesco in Formby to get a flan for tea and some sprinkles for Jessie.He has gone off to get the shopping this morning for the week instead. 

Really really hot weather here at the moment. Does not really make you want to go out. last night was so hot i couldn't get off to sleep and only slept in fits and starts, kept waking up because of the heat. What a country! Either pouring with rain or feezing cold and now a heatwave. A lot of flash floods in Scotland with a train being derailed when it hit a landslip. Three people were killed, the driver the conductor and one other passenger.   They seem to be blaming extreme weather conditions, causing the land slide, and the train went into it and de-railed. 

Jessie doesn't seem to be bothered by the heat, but she doesn't go out much anyway.  What she does do is find the coolest part of the house.

Keeping cool as I can. Just waiting for my cream a bit later on. No hurry!
