Thanks @cathybird not to worry it is just a regular check up, It was not as bad as I made out she was good at it, well sort of! MD has paid for lunch so I am up to 3 No spend days afterall...I Think I owe a lot to MD! Although I did make her lunch in the garden and I did do some grocery shopping for her!cathybird said:@Crazybee787 sorry to hear about the blood test xxx1 -
