... insurance people. I got a letter off them and have to have my stiches out in 7 days time and got a prescription for some pain killers. So all we have been doing really is hiding out in our little apparment the woman who we are staying with is amazing and refused to charge Ian for the extra days that we have been staying and Ian has been great in looking after me. Making me soup and sausage and mash and ...

... to sit down as the pain was really getting to me. I knew then that I was going to faint I could tell after fainting a few times before everything goes weird and things start going fast I kinda thought I could stop myself but no joy.

... save some money I bought some food to eat in the room. We did not really do much today went back to the room after we had found a laundry for our clothes and then I cooked both me and Beebs a lovely chicken sunday dinner with potaoes and carrots and even found some stuff so that I could make Gravy sorry not much to say but we where so tired and just wanted to chill out.<br>
