I was born to live in the Mediterranean! With a name like Maria and an obsession with outdoor eating, I do wonder what the heck I’m doing in London sometimes! Trying to make the most of our evenings, G and I decided to bring a bit of the Mediterranean alfresco living to what would have been a very average Tuesday eve. I mean come on, look at that spread!It didn’t take long to set up shop and, to be honest you don’t have to ask me twice to make up a table, it’s one task I relish and, simple love to do! (more…)
I went to the well woman clinic in Twyford surgery today and was sadly not impressed. I think I was there for all of three minutes. I thought there would be some questions about my mother’s health history, grandmother’s health, discussion on ongoing medical issues and a smear test or a blood test. Would funding stretch to both? All I had was a urine test for protein and glucose, my blood pressure ( which is available at the front desk for free so I didn’t need this) and a quick questioning on my diet.
