    Hope you feel better again quickly.

    I will, I 'm going to think about what I can eat. I 'm usually very careful and restricted but I think I might actually have forgotten after the pollen incident, which means I last ate yesterday afternoon ( I ate chilli then, mind you) . I certainly haven't written anything down today.:o

    OH says he thinks it is a rebadged Toyota Aygo...there is some EU rule that across the range car manufactureres have to have an average (something technical) .. rebadge a very small Toyota and bingo...compliance.

    I did wonder why Aston Martin had made one of those! That would explain it.

    It doesn't look like an Aygo it looks more like the iQ.

    After I had mangled a 'je suis desolate" conversation with the maitre'd OH took over and began (in French) "my woman" (should have been "my wife").

    I thought both "my wife" and "my woman" would be "ma femme" in French. Google translate agrees with me. What was it that he said?

    Mother in law had bladder cancer for nearly twenty years, and yet she survived to age 90 and died of something entirely different.

    Similarly, my mum had endometrial cancer. When it was diagnosed, the GP told her not to worry about it because at her age it would be slow to develop and she'd "have plenty of time to die of the other things before it got serious", which indeed was what happened.

    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    Back into gym yesterday after a 2 month lay off. It was good to do some exercise again although my fitness has fallen to pieces. I have to so a load of silly exercises which make me look even stupider than normal but physio was very pleased with the knee. She did decide to do some deep tissue massage which was more painful than the original injury ever was an my leg is in turmoil today!

    Dog dog is snuggled in with me on the sofa.

    Glad to hear she has a good grasp of her responsibilities as a companion animal. :)

    Hope the physio has the desired result, even if it's painful for now, and hope it's not as painful next time she does it to you.

    OH was 'illustrating' to explain rationale, I think micheals post identified it as an iQ.
