Easier to learn when you are younger chantel. Will you go for another qualification? I was nearly 40 by the time I got my accounting qualifications. No I don't think so lotsofcats I think this is my biggest achievement, I honestly thought I couldn't do it lol 🙃 I have previously done canine and feline first aid , small furry animals I'm happy that I have done them 😄 I would like to work with animals but not sure I want go through all the retraining now I am 50 🤫 But then I do feel that all my hard work would be wasted but it does come in very handy with knowing the knowledge of my own furry family ., but none of us know what's around the corner. |

Did you all enjoy the long weekend ? In between the showers. What did you get up to ?
I spent all day Saturday gardening , the start of the Summer tidy up etc. First time I have had to do all the heavy stuff , facing up hedges , weeding , ripping down a trellis ( containing part of my clematis lotsofcats  ) it was all breaking apart , and looking un sightly above the kitchen window. When it gave way I got the full brunt of it. No harm done thankfully , I have a hard head. Trouble is I am suffering with my back since yesterday , think ( no, not think  Know I have used muscles I forgot I had ) anyways a skip is now needed , . Sorry for long post BUT its a post right

I hope you didn't overdo it scallywag and your aches and pains are soon gone. I expect it was worth it and looks nice and tidy. I was gardening on Sunday. |

The boys and I had a fun weekend at a flyball competition! Scout raced on Saturday and his team came 2nd. But the other two had great fun as well and was nice to get away for a bit!

My fault entirely but who else is going to do it , on reflection no dont answer that |

On Saturday we met up with some friends for a drink, Sunday we did a bit of gardening before taking Jasper for a walk via the pub, and watched the BTCC and F1 on the tv, then Monday we just took Jasper for his walk via the pub again. Think there's a bit of a common theme going on.  |

I could have sent you some Voltarol scallywag, I have plenty to spare. I tell my pharmacy when they do my repeat prescriptions that I don't want any for a few months and it falls on deaf ears. Hope the Voltarol is working. |

Hope the Voltarol is working. I'm intrigued lotsofcats I have to order each item of my repeat medcines individually from the doctors (can do it online) who then approve them & send the prescription to the pharmacy. Does your pharmacy raise the repeat order for you or is it just the repeat quantity that causes the excess? Due to 2 conditions & changes in dosages of one medicine each of my tablets ran out at different times & as I can only order up to 7 days in advance I was having to to do multiple orders. I've finally got them all due at the same time! Sadly I can't use Voltarol any more as NSAIDs are contr-indicated for one of my medicines & there isn't an alternative to NSAIDs that is as applicable. I still can use the Pernaton cooling gel which helps my knees a bit. |

Sorry to hear about your back pain scallywag hope the Voltarol is working. I know you are having to do a lot more yourself but overdoing it is not the way to go, as experience has taught me. Take care  |

I have 11 different medications tonib. The pharmacy order them for me every 4 weeks and then deliver them. If I don't want any of the items I phone and tell them in advance not to put them on the order. I find it easier to do this way. I used to have to post my request into the doctors and then call in Boots in town. Half the time they wouldn't have all I'd ordered so then I would have to go back down to the surgery to find out why not. The queues in Boots were really long and it was very frustrating. Also, they started to shut for lunch from 12 to 2.30. They actually closed over a month ago and I'm not surprised, such a bad service. |
