In need of a plumber

Let's see what this does to my stats!

Happily, the Miffy household hasn't had any problems with frozen pipes, blocked toilets or wonky boilers during the Big Freeze. And I'd like to think I'm setting a new trend in cold weather wear for the Over Fifties; my current bedtime ensemble consisting of black thermal vest with matching black lace pyjama top and bottoms, subtle pink checked brushed cotton jim hams, navy wool cardi, Victoria's secrets dressing gown and two pairs of bedsocks.

It's my internal plumbing that seems to be in need of attention at the moment. Gallstones are 'off,' according to a pre-Christmas scan, but just in case I was feeling short-changed, a couple of other bits 'n pieces have been spotted which need further checking out, hence more tests are booked for early February. Beaker rules OK! Though that said, after a week of (restrained) mememeing I'm beginning to get thoroughly bored with the whole thing and am doing my best to put it to the back of my mind.

On a more cheerful note, at least all this hanging round hospitals will give me a chance to do some serious reading. Suggestions, anybody?
