Trouble was, you left the pub in Yorkshire only a few hours earlier!
What have you been doing today?
- Thread starter Mottie
- Start date
We went to Brighton today to cheer on Miss Mottie in her first marathon. She was as nervous as hell, thinking she might not finish it but she did well, 4 hours 32 minutes but she said she started to feel sick around the 10km mark and that she’s never doing another one.
Our grandson made a banner for his Auntie and we caught up with her at the halfway mark where I gave her a banana and a couple of energy gels.
Dunno how she's feeling now but I’m knackered and aching just walking nearly 7 miles!

Today on the way back from the marathon, I taught my grandson how to make friends with pigeons. Just look at the horror and disgust on Mrs Motties face with regards to the "flying vermin".
Another hospital appointment today, this time to fit the heart monitor - part of their attempts, to work out what is causing the weird panic/anxiety episodes. They originally said it would be monitoring for 72 hours, but today they said only 24 - they want it back tomorrow, complete with a form filled in, detailing any episodes I have. Total waste of time, I will not be having any, but if I do, I'm supposed to press a button on it, and complete a report. Besides which, during the episodes, I have checked myself and found no physical symptoms at all.
I was suffering multiple episodes per day, until a couple of weeks ago, when after a year of them worsening, they finally diagnosed them, and gave prescribed a med for them. A week ago, I was still suffering an occasional episode, sorted by increasing the meds slightly, now none at all, and so none to try to capture with monitor.
Tomorrow, two phone appointments, with the hospital. Day after, another hospital appointment to pre-op assess me.

Accepted an offer on my mums bungalow. First time buyer with a decent deposit according to the estate agent. I told him it stays on the market though until this buyer shows us the colour of his money and makes contact with my solicitor or arranges a survey or even shows us the mortgage offer on this property. I had enough Billy big spuds put offers on the workshop were selling, only to disappear into the ether and not respond to calls from our estate agent. You wouldn’t believe the number of bulls hitters out there.
I'm not a doctor, however I have diagnosed your problem.
Reading the DIYNot general discussion forum!
I prescribe no more than 10 minutes reading of the forum per day and not at all on Sunday's.
(jokes aside hope you get it all sorted soon)
Ta!
That issue, at least, and at last, does seem to be sorted. It was, very debilitating, and worrying. The worrying about it, simply made it worse, as time passed, with no solution. Now back, on what seems, an even keel!
I dug up some assorted plants from my mums garden and replanted them in the bed at my end of the road that I’ve adopted ( there’s 3 in total down my road and the council just let them run to weed and people dropped litter in them etc). Anyway, one of them was what I thought was just a clump of bluebells but they have started producing strange type of flower heads. Today I noticed that they have started to open and I had to look them up. Caribbean Lily apparently. Quite a nice looking flower too,
