LJ spell check does not know about Cistercians
In the last couple of days I've actually felt quite healthy for the first time in six months. I would encourage you all to enjoy to pleasures of walking briskly and being able to pick up heavy piles of books without falling over or dropping them, as it's pretty cool to be able to do both these things.
I'm pretty much back in York now, although I am popping back to Halifax this weekend one last time before truly settling in.
Tomorrow is an appointment with Dr. Ballard in Leeds, and I'm hoping he'll not have any real news for me. It would be nice if he takes me off co-amilofruse and ups my dosage of bisoprolol, though, so I can be both peeing less and (as a side effect) extra chilled.
Tuesday was an interesting evening - dinner again with Eeyan and Father Stephen, and got to meet Stephen's friend Brother Benedict from the Cistercian community on Caldey, off the Welsh coast - also saw Jenny again for the first time in a long while, and it turns out she quite likes me, which is good - I thought we'd got off to a bad start. Anyway, dinner with a Trappist of the Strict Observance was not as quiet as might be expected, and I'm glad to have met him.
And last night Dave, Lucy and Kit came over. I'd kindly been given a bottle of wine by Noel, but being teetotal at present, Lucy took that bullet for me, whilst Dave conked out on the sofa.
