Just hicupped while taking a drink and started choking.  Woke up my entire family. Luckily.  I couldn't catch a breath and couldn't stop choking so I was taking myself off to get help when mum met me on the landing and thumped me.  Yay, I breathe again!!!

Ok, 25th June is the date for the op.  Mum's doing much better than I expected, she got back at around half ten so she's knackered but coping.  Robyn is out getting drunk but otherwise is fine.  Since she got engaged she's an honorary boy, apparently, so she was invited on the boy's steak night.

I've been informed that I am visiting Lancaster from Wednesday to Saturday next week...  I don't like staying in other people's houses!!!!!  I like my own things, I am very particular, I like to be in control and I don't like new people.  She doesn't even have wireless!!  But I've been informed that I have no choice in the matter.  Joy.  I have also volunteered to be Ez's gardener.  Her old house in York from before she moved in with Bill next door is rented out and her tenants just moved out and left the place as a tip so since I'm not doing anything these days I've said I'll sort out the garden for her and if anything needs doing inside I can help with that too.  Fun!!  I'm just waiting for a nice day to do it and I'll head down and sort it out. 

I am getting fitter... not noticably so really but I can now run across the green to school and back and then die.  Previously I could only run half way across the green and proceed to die.  I may be having a small asthma attack now but I managed to do a lot more before this attack than previously.  This is progress.  I may even see the inside of a gym before the year is out!!!!
