Almost. I'm a week into a daily dose of Lansoprazole (same family of drug) and it's already made me feel a LOT better.

Re: The All New Megathread

I had a barium swallow test at Stoke Mandeville Hospital this afternoon. It confirmed my GP's diagnosis of acid reflux with nothing else nasty or lurking to be seen. There were lots of posters around...

Weather is patchy today so I'll be in the greenhouse clearing the clutter from the staging and getting the module trays ready for the first sowings.

Re: The All New Megathread

If it wasn't for the buds bursting open into leaves on the lilac you'd swear it was December: cold, blowing a right one, and pouring down. Great start to the long weekend...

Re: The All New Megathread

It was a bit cold and very blustery but, as today is the only day for two weeks with no rain in the forecast... Hugh came out of hibernation! Just a ten mile circuit but enough to:

Re: The All New Megathread

No rain for us today, thankfully, as most of the bits of Oxfordshire I go past on my way to work are still underwater, as they've been for weeks now. Thankfully most of the flooded roads are now...

Re: The All New Megathread

Pretty drizzly on and off all morning and still lots of flooding on some roads, so may be another week or two before Hugh pokes a wheel out of the garage. Getting itchy feet to be riding again I must...

Cold and foggy getting to the Ford dealers for 8 am today, but a caff breckie was a nice consolation. Went for a wander to kill more time and can report that the Thames at Marlow looks very angry...

What is going on with the weather? It was so warm in my study yesterday that I had the window open, and the central heating did not kick in at all last night or this morning. It is still the middle...

Alas, until I empty one of the composers I don't have room for any of it. There is so much of it too that I would struggle to mix in enough of the existing brew to get it cooking, and past experience...

Re: The All New Megathread

If we did not have The Monkey visiting I may well have gotten Hugh out for a run on Saturday. By the time she'd headed off on Sunday it was threatening rain so I scarified the lawn instead... Its...
