Not the best of Christmases with Christmas Eve and up to midday Christmas Day spent in Pinderfields hospital with a troublesome nose bleed or rather a whole series of them going on for about a week. I’m hoping that the source of the problem has now been found and cauterised.
I've a list of things not to do. No hot drinks or hot food and no spicy food. No lifting or bending over and one that’s pretty tricky is to sleep sitting up. So far so good.
Christmas dinner was a cold turkey salad but I didn't bother with any cold sprouts or parsnips.
The weather has remained in its wet Atlantic phase for the last week or so with plenty of wet and windy weather. The rain has been persistent without being torrential and the monthly total looks like finishing just above expected, bearing in mind that December is on average one of our wettest months.
That strange looking temperature peak on Sunday 23 December gave us our highest temperature of the month. Bizarrely it happened at 02:30 in the morning so I guess few people were around to notice it.
There doesn't seem to be any change in the forecast up to the start of the new year with wet and windy conditions set to continue.

Fingers crossed that you're all sorted out now. I think you'll have to have a hot Christmas dinner in the new year to make up for missing it on Christmas Day.
ReplyDeleteSo far so good and another day without any problems. Check up at clinic on Monday morning.
ReplyDeleteDelighted to see you posting again. This year has had a bit of a sting in the tail! Hope Monday goes well.
ReplyDeleteNo more blood spilled so I'm now in record breaking territory since 17 December. Looking forward to my next warm meal now.
