Watch the birdy

Dylan loves his bouncy birdy toy. As a metaphor for Brexit, hanging by a thread with predators about to pounce must have been how Theresa May felt when she started her day. Come tomorrow ... who knows?

I worked at home today before cycling in to my GP appointment. There was an air of disgruntlement in the waiting room as this particular doctor is notorious for running late (about an hour today). But as one patient pointed out, he was only late because he took the time to listen to you, and there were plenty of approving nods at this statement. Seems quality is worth waiting for after all.

The good news is that my bloods were not only a pass, they were excellent for someone of my age and with my condition. The steroid withdrawal might not see me back to normal until the new year but I can live with that. I just need to keep taking the tablets...
