great news

Afternoon all you little frozen icicles out there in MS (and other) lands!

Is it snowing where you are? As we live lower than than halifax and Huddersfield, we often get less bad weather.

But we`ve got our snow! It was bad enough to stop me from having my Monday galavant!

Bums to that!

Anyway, I did manage to get to the docs who is 5 mins away. had a BP check and it is fine. But theres a slight bit of something in my wee, so I have to drink more water…crikey…i already drink lots of water. Nurse said tea and coffee irritate the bladder. Then she said something amusing…female bladders are not well designed. I agreed in saying they are in the wrong place for a start! They should be in a more accessible place, then all my difficult transfers wouldnt be necessary! She said mens bladders flush more easily. Huh! See you fellas have it easy…uhoh, I`m gonna get it in the neck for that comment!

So whats my great news`? I had a call from Housing Adaptations re my 2 new fixed hoists, to replace a faulty portable one. I wont have to be means tested again. Yippee!

They are being ordered and i hope to be swinging more efficiently soon!!!

luv Pollx

Great news about the hoists. Happy swinging!

Hi, that great news about the hoists. Yes, it is snowing in Aberdeen, it was that sleety kind of snow but now it’s getting dark, think it will turn into proper snow. Cheryl:-)

we had a light coating on the tops of the walls this morning but since then its rained (as always here in greater manchester)

stay safe everyone who has snow and keep warm

brilliant news poll

Hi Poll

Brilliant news about the hoists, should make it easier for all of you.

We had a small amount of snow last night, but it’s b****y freezing!!

In my opinion men have the easy option in many ways (probably get it

in the neck for saying that) but I am sure this is the case.

Take care

Not much snow here in South Shields. Great news on the hoist front Poll, happy swinging and keep drinking that water… Linda x

Great news Poll.

Snowed in London yesterday but didn’t settle… was pretty though (wouldn’t be saying that if it had settled and I’d be housebound!)

Thanks all for your kind words and weather reports.

More snow today, but not sticking.

Hope I can get out on Thursday, to see Les Mis at Halifax`s smart new cinema complex.

My first thought was “Amazing that a building society is now opening a cinema complex!”

Pat x

Ah, but they switched from being a building society to a bank, quite a long time ago now!

But local people still refer to it as a building society. They were tbiggest in t world tha knows!

luv Pollx
