“Most heart attacks hit during the early morning hours from 4 – 10 am when blood platelets are stickier, and there is increased adrenaline released from the adrenal glands that can trigger rupture of plaques in coronary arteries,”

It's one of the reasons it's not the best idea for us old feckers to leap out of bed for a run, just a bit more stress on the ticker?

The other is that its much nicer to loaf about in the garden with a coffee.

I'm still here.

Not sure what it was/is. Feeling waaaay better,but still a slight pain in my chest/sternum. Gym class this morning was a bit of a struggle, but probably as I haven't been sleeping well.
I have noticed that if I eat anything I feel over-full and bloated. Wonder if I might have a little hernia. Or might just be trapped wind.

Either way, you ain't getting rid of me yet.

Getting your health care professional to give you his..uh...professional opinion may be a sound move.

Meh. Doctors.

All that training and medical expertise, but what do they really know, eh?

Please don't get the idea that I'm any sort of paramedic! My CFR training is more to keep you alive if you're having a heart attack or sudden cardiac arrest.

But chest pain could be loads of things, including muscular, digestive (including stuff like gallstones).

Sorted my Sisters car out. Low pressure fuel sensor cost me £20 from eBay and half hour of my time to fit it. A bit better than BMW who were quoting north of £250! TF I intervened...

Dealt with soooooo many enquiries at work today. Sunday is a busy day for enquiries Lots of happy customers but best of all, compliments on my French

Nearly bought a 996, then looked at the weather and decided that riding it simply wasn’t happening any time soon, so I decided to go home, pack a bag and fly somewhere hot instead.

I'm stuck in the midlands at the moment so I went for a wander round Shugborough Estate today and saw Lord Lichfield's private apartment, no slum but nowhere near as grand as you'd expect in a house like that. Ironically nobody is allowed to take photos in there.

Passed my last test, the general skills test.... I'm now officially a pilot.

Tree cutting today. I had to cut back a pittosporum which had become oversized and was blocking one of the garden lights. The fucking rain didn't even give me a break on the last day of a really wet July. Cnut.

At least the shitty weather is saving me a fortune in E5.

Did my regular Monday stroll around the countryside. Had to do a bit of a double take at the end though. In the village where we start and finish there's an old building (used to be the fire station when the fire engine was horse drawn, now it's the public bogs) being painted/renovated by two young chaps. One had parked his bike there. Shiny, black with L plates on. Wossat? thinks I, looks a bit big for an L bike. Closer inspection reveals it's a new AJS!

Turns out they import from China and then rebadge them. They do scooters too.

*sigh*

Excellent work. Now you just have to wait weeks for the bastards to send the licence through!

Finally sorted out the hose bibtap!
Bloody thing was leaking through the shaft and of course the guy that fitted the plumbing was a brit using brit sizes, so no chance of an insert fitting or simply a new bibtap!
Found my bumper box of O rings et voila, we have a winner.
Hopefully that will be a few brownie points for the week, till I ferk something up!

New MOT and a very soggy ride AMR Leyburn great service and a good cafe too.

Need to go borrow a mates oven when she's back cos -

Got back to work after lunch yesterday and my bosses wife said "need to talk to you, we've got a problem"

So I went into the office and she said "So, when you started you said you make loads of cake - but we haven't seen any"


Fear to laughter in seconds!

But she's right My oven isn't working and whilst it's not really an issue for me daily cos I have a pressure cooker and an air fryer, it does mean that I can't make cakes

Here's hoping I can pop down to my mates chalet at the weekend and make some to keep the bosses happy!!

But chest pain could be loads including stuff like gallstones

Felt like the worst indigestion I'd ever had, lasted a good day and a half before I asked the wife to take me to hospital.

[Ant]

Broke the bloody timing belt today didn't I.....







...on my belt sander. Ok it's not to keep it in time, but it's toofed innit.

Booked tickets for the wife and son to fly to Hungary and be with her brother. Their father passed away a year ago today.

Watched movie with the family this evening in our living room, nice to be together.

Walked the dog in the morning before the great deluge.

Posted the daughters PIP application.

Bought 12 bottles of ale/bitter.

Cleared some stuff out of the lounge.

Helped my wife get her UTC sorted for HMRC Self Assessment Tax thingy. We have an advisor now as we rent our home and I'm a minister of religion with all the tax issues around that. Pay £170 a year for TMC to sort out our tax affairs.

Sorted out something else, but cannot remember what as I've had a large glass of Highland Park this evening and the mind is now leaking facts and mulling on the good things of life.

I think that is enough ruminations over the days affairs. Hic....
