Just an idea for a new type of thread, what's the weather like where you are today.

Here in not very sunny at all Keighley, just south of the North Yorkshire border it is snowing hard, (we're at 980 feet) very windy, and quite cold too.

Me neither until I had to go to the dentist :( They have numbers marked on the floor and you have to go and stand on the number you are given when they let you in.

Our dentists is really good. I had to go a couple of months back or so and they just told me to sit in the car outside and when they were ready they just called my mobile and straight in. They even had a woman following you about sanitising everything you touched.

Been ok today, Albert has got a long way in the back, cutting Ivy’s, pressure hosing

I phoned appointments as I’m still really struggling to walk now with my back and inflammation in my feet , and knees

My wrists and hands, and severe stiffness

They tried but get anything before the 27 May to see the rheumatologist was not to be

Unfortunately the rheumatologist emergency clinics remain closed due to Covid

Tomorrow I have a dentist appointment and I’m dreading trying to negotiate the stairs, negotiating ours is a nightmare and it’s so embarrassing, people rushing to help but I just need to be left alone to slowly and painfully make my way up and then down aware I’m the focus of attention

At least Albert will be there but he knows to leave me alone I can’t match helpers speed ,I know they mean well but need them just to stand back

It’s been a bad good few week now with stiffness and pain

But it’s time to start my permanent fixed dentures so be it

The sun is shining, you would think it’s warm out, but it’s only +4°c and still very windy, should reach the great height of +12° this afternoon, the wind stays for today and hopefully gone tomorrow. Sunday the temp will shoot up to 22°c so they do say.

Sandra, surely they have a surgery for people with disabilities. My dentist is in a very old building with steep stairs but they have a wheelchair friendly surgery downstairs.

Overcast and cold here. We, too, are promised some warmth by Sunday :)
Looks to be a nice but cold day here.

Nice view Kev, except the jungle in the foreground.

Ray.
This used to be a garden centre so lots of shrubs but no organisation but we like it, liz is working her way through it very slowly but it keeps her happy and not bothering me.

Is that the Month of May or the May blossom?

Except for the wind it wasn't a bad day, not the normal May temperature though.
Motley found a hedgehog in the garden when he went out for the last time tonight, it looked motionless do I just tried to look at it using a long handled shoe horn and he curled up smaller, so I thought it might be too cold for him to be out and he wants to sleep again, so I found a cardboard box and cut a side out to put over him, at least for a bit of protection I thought, took the box out and he was gawn, no sign of him anywhere, they can move when they want to.

The water is warmer than the temperature is here.

I spoke to Apple support in Athens today, he said it was 27°c there, he couldn´t believe it when I said it was only +5 °c here, so as he was doing a screen share I showed him the internet weather.
No wonder some motorhomers wish they were in Greece.

Right that puts the kibosh on that then, he said I could go and live with him because I sounded a very nice lady.
I still flirt at 76 :grin2:
