A normal start to the day without a visit from the district nurse. I did a little more work on the Nissan Patrol this morning and a trip to the local Halfords to buy a few bits and pieces. A quiet evening relaxing but a phone call from Paul just before midnight asking for a lift home from Barry.

A warm Thursday
My day started with the daily visit from the district nurse, I generally don’t see the same nurse two days running as the local pratice has a team of district nurses but Sarah called again today. I seem to be healing well after the surgery and they should be able to change the type of dressing soon. I had a long overdue haircut from Adrian in Taffs Well now that I’m able to get about again and called in to see my mum on the way back. I went to Celtic Tyres in Bridgend this afternoon to have the wheels balanced on the Nissan Patrol as my local tyre service were having problems getting a good balance yesterday. I met with Mark and Laura again this evening for their pre-wedding session, they’re getting married at the Manor House Hotel in Penarth in a couple of weeks.
A mild Wednesday
My day started as usual with a visit from the district nurse to change my dressings. I did a little work on the Nissan Patrol this morning and had new tyres fitted this afternoon. I went to Welsh class this evening, quite a struggle getting back into the swing of things after a break of a few weeks. David and Hannah called in this evening.
A much colder Tuesday
The daily visit from the district nurses to start my day. David called in this morning, ordered some new tyres for the Nissan Patrol, they’ll be ready tomorrow. A fairly quiet day relaxing.
A dry Friday
The insurance documents arrived for the Nissan Patrol, the local Post Office has run out of tax discs, so a drive to the Treforest Estate Post Office to tax it. An appointment with the doctor and a prescription for antibiotics but I may need an immediate referral to the local hospital if there isn’t a rapid improvement. Collected the Nissan Patrol and drove it home, I’ve previously owned a number of high spec Range Rovers and Discoveries and I wasn’t expecting the Patrol to be as good on road but I’ve been pleasantly surprised, it’s well behaved in traffic and cruises comfortably at 70 mph and is quite capable of going faster.
A quiet Thursday
I’m still waiting for the insurance documents for the Nissan Patrol to arrive in the post so I can tax it and collect it. I’m having a very annoying problem with the main pc, the latest updates from Symantec live update are causing severe problems with the status application continuously accessing the hard disk. It’s also then impossible to access any of the Norton applications. Booting from the Ghost 10 CD and restoring the C drive from the latest back up is the only solution. A selective update from Symantec live update, without selecting the program updates is working as an interim measure.
A mixed Tuesday
I called in to Cardiff this morning and test drove a Nissan Patrol SGX GR with a 4L diesel engine, it’s a bit of a monster but I decided to buy it, I haven’t driven anything quite that large for some time, it needs a little TLC but the price was very tempting – might regret it later. Just need to make some room on the drive for it. 🙂
