LIR is completely right. As usual. Get thyself GP-wards, sharpish.

You have earned a free use of 'yes dear' too.


I am obviously getting mellow in response to flattery.

I had an interesting journey to work - I broke out into a horrible sweat about 5 minutes outside waterloo and then promptly fainted in the middle of a crowded carriage. Luckily there was a nice person (although not a Nice Person) on the train who gave me some water and looked after me.

This is at least the fourth time this has happened, although the first time I have actually passed out on the train. The previous times I have managed to make it off the train and sit down somewhere. Expect I will have to stop saying there is nothing wrong with me and go to the doctor now.

Take care of yourself and take advantage of your health cover, I only came close to passing out on a packed overheated train once (luckily we reached a station and I staggered off on to a bench and got some fresh air just before I keeled over although I certainly couldn't see for a while so it was close) and it was a pretty unpleasant experience. I also took it as a signal to turn round and go back home deciding the cold/flu I had at the time was probably bad enough that my being at work was not going to addd value.

When we go to see LNE's parents we stay up the road from them in a place that does an all you can eat breakfast - free for both kids if mine has been paid for. DD does proper justice to it, DS has a bit, and I just have the fruit salad and croissants etc. I've tried eating the full English - I love a lot of that stuff if it's later in the day - but it just makes me feel sluggish all morning, and then eat far too much at lunch, which is bad on so many levels, so now I resist it.

When I stayed at the posh hotel earlier this year, I asked them to make me grilled tomatoes for breakfast - a whole plateful. That sort of worked, because I felt that I was getting my money's worth but it was not too heavy. I still put on weight there, though.

Incidentally .... "Hartwell House played host to the spring summit of the G7 group, chaired by chancellor George Osborne and the governor of the Bank of England, Sir Mervyn King."

I think the NP thread has enabled a lot of us to learn to be mellow and that others aren't "out to get us".

Sorry - you'll have to take your sarnies to the beach instead. Same time next week for the weirdo-waving?

My DW has a tendency to do that sort of thing. She has low blood pressure, which is of course a VERY GOOD THING! So, there may be nothing at all wrong with you. Pleased you are going to the doctor, though.

By the way, did you have breakfast this morning?

I came into the bedroom last night and found DW sprawled on the floor. A very worrying moment indeed, until I realised that she was on her exercise mat doing leg lifts.
