Monday 7th August

A long day. Sunshine and showers (again) 19C. Computing in the morning: the desktop PC is really a long way from the first flush of youth and needed maintenance. Some of it is better now, though the DVD RW steadfastly refuses to write: a power supply issue, I think*. Can't decide whether to try to fix it or just upgrade the machine. Then I'm into the desktop/laptop debate again ...
Walked 1.1 miles in 20 minutes ( a new route).
Went to the hospital to be reviewed by the consultant. Appointment was 14:30. Was actually seen at 16:55! Harangued by a guy who was also waiting (for a different consultant) describing how "He'd told them ..." (a list of things designed to get him seen earlier/compensation for being seen late/Etc., Etc.) wonderful - not. Progress seems to be in the 'normal' range, so I can try to do a bit more.

We ate:
Saffron risotto with squid, mussels, prawns.

* it was the power supply, quick, cheap fix.
