Late up this morning. I had nothing planned for today, so there was no rush to get up. Breakfast was the usual Weetabix and milk.

I woke up and read my work emails. JJ had replied to an email that I had written. I called him after breakfast, and he said that he had replied to China, and was waiting for a response.

I was up and breakfasted by 9:45am this morning. I did the difficult Sudoku in the paper, and was ready to leave at 10:15am. Mum was ready as well (luckily, I was sat down at the time).

We set off for Rugby, and went down the Fosse Way. It was a sunny drive, and not too much traffic on the roads. I was interested to see what progress had been made on the Rugby Western Relief Road.

After the exercise I got yesterday at the field, today has been a relaxing day. Up and breakfasted by 10:10am.

I then updated my laptop to Vista SP2. This is hopefully a cure for my laptop occasionally saying that any memory stick that I put into it is “Unrecognized” (Curse those butchers of English). After a while, it sprang back to life again, and on entering Windows, nothing appeared different. I can only hope that a lot of things were done under the bonnet. However, I need to keep using my memory sticks to check that it has cured the problem. I gave it a try out by skyping Ma Yan, and nothing untoward happened, so fingers crossed.

A lazy morning, with me getting up lateish, and getting down for breakfast at 10:00am. I had a couple of weetabix, a glass of milk, and a banana and strawberry smoothie. I skyped Ma Yan, and at 10:55am Dad went off to take Gina and Danny to Birmingham Airport for their week long break to Tunisia.

As I was in the bathroom this morning, the TV I ordered for Mum and Dad arrived. It is a Toshiba 26AV615DB. I ordered it as when I put the TV on for the GP last Sunday, it was flickering. Dad said that it always did that, and sometimes changing the channel worked. It didn’t.

Up this morning for the usual Weetabix and milk. My plan was to sort all the papers that were at the apartment and also some that Tracey had brought over. I actually managed to get it all sorted whilst skyping as well!

A very un-productive day. I was up at 9:00am, and had breakfast. Mum was going out today, haircut first and then shopping with Yvonne in Banbury. Dad was going to the field to put the roof on the tractor garage with Terry. The tin man had dropped off the roofing materials on Tuesday, so everything is all ready to go.

All I have done is eat my lunch, which was in a cool bag on the table for me. I skyped Ma Yan, and as she was doing some exercises, I thought I would do some as well. Just moving my leg around and generally moving about. She then went for a run around the complex.

Got up early this morning to get to the hospital on time. We left home at 8:45am, and Dad dropped Mum and I off at 8:55am. My appointment was for 9:05am, so no problems. Went to the Fracture Clinic Reception desk, and my name was ticked off a list. Good stuff. We went through into the waiting room, and I was surprised to see quite a few people already there.

Up and showered this morning, and then sticked it downstairs for 8:15am.

I am preparing for tomorrows jaunt to the hospital. Yesterday afternoon, I was called with an appointment to be at the “Fracture Clinic” at 9:05am on Wednesday. I am not 100% sure what they are going to do, but, they might give me an indication as to how long I will need for recovery.
