Saturday

Took Helen to work she has not been feeling well since her return from Egypt problems with her bowels and her feeling sick and acid coming up from her stomach she didn't go to the toilet for the first ten days of her holiday and the problem has persisted from then she got some medication Picolax from the clinic over there it is giving to patients to make them go to the toilet before major operations and surgery and is very harsh and should not really be used in cases of constipation.

Helen reported in to work and they advised that we go to the emergency doctors , we both work for the NHS, so we called in at the medical centre Meanwood and we made an appointment for 9.10 a.m, Helen was seen by a doctor and she was given alternative medicine to make her go to the toilet , she will have to at some stage go see her own GP when she can make an follow up appointment she my have an infection that needs treating .


Went to Tong Garden centre in the afternoon and bought loads of plants and climbers along with a couple of hanging baskets and a black metal arch way for the front garden .

Went to Helen's parents house for a barbecue late in the afternoon , her brother Martin and his Fiancee Katie was there plus some other relatives and Helen's youngest son Liam who stayed the night at our house the first time since we have moved in last December , Had some really nice food and it was a glorious sunny afternoon and was perfect just chilling out on the sun loungers drink cold lagers and doing nothing but watch the sun go down .
