Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 13
Not quite a prep but I have a job interview in an hour for a ‘diagonal’ promotion. It’s a senior position but for a different team, more responsibilities and a wee bit more money… Wish me luck! Good luck! ‘Meh’ at best. I’ve had a ringing in my ears all day, I never get this and it totally distract...

Frnc, the NHS admin sounds horrendous - I get the sense down here that there are too many ways of doing things - GP, A&E, private referrals, polyclinics, specialist clinics, it's really become a mess.

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 13
Years ago I was really into herbal medicine. I grew a lot of herbs and made tinctures and infusions etc etc but I have to say that very few of them worked well. Thyme for cough mix is fabulous. Honey for wounds likewise. But most of the traditional old cures were a disappointment. Of ordinary comme...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 13
This sounds terrible for everyone :( I didn't realise quite how lucky I am that I don't take anything regularly :( if I'm out all day, I take a just-in-case loperamide :cry: and that's it. Still haven't started that CBD for arthritis, though I may need to soon, I'm only getting a max of 5 hours a ni...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 13
Well, had plenty of plans.. Then my old acquaintance Mr Arthritis McFlare decided to drop in overnight. Probably decided to drop in having not been invited to all the gardening and walking i've been doing recently. Am hoping that following a hearty breakfast of Ibuprofen and Steroids he'll bugger o...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 13
My own preps: managed to get some seeds planted last week, and the courgettes sprang up almost right away :lol: the kale has followed, and even a little basil spriglet has showed its head. I'd love lots of basil plants. Got a delivery coming today from B&Q - compost, a stopcock key (the valve in...
