I was already dreading today, what with it being my diabetic clinic appointment and the fact my readings have been high. Even though ive cut my portions and took more exercise, but I stray from what I was gonna say. Whilst taking the wife to work I had the delightful pleasure of a middle aged business woman in a soured up Honda civic( contradiction there) sitting 5 yards off my rear now after being hit twice in the chuff in the last 2 years I was a little nervous to say the least. So as soon as it was possible I went to change lanes and get the hell out of her way only to find she tried to overtake me up the inside as I moved over. We didn't collide but my wife was shocked and stunned to say the least. So off she went after pulling a manouvere Lewis Hamilton would of been proud of by quickly going right and around me with her horn going and giving me the finger. Anyways she then got cut up by a transit van who must of thought he was nico rosberg, so I dropped the wife at work and continued to the docs for my telling off over my diabetes only to find as I pull up the temp gauge goes ballistic and steam starts billowing out from the front of the miggy. I gingerly opened the bonnet and discovered a cracked radiator and so after a couple of phone calls I'm gonna be lighter to the tune of £200-240...😬 ive had to bite the bullet and get it sorted today as I was meant to be at work for 7am today and I finally rolled in at 1150am after the rac and public transport got me home and then onto work... So what was the outcome of the diabetic appointment??? Nurse called in sick today so my appointment was cancelled till next week.... 😦😦😤

That is about par for the course. Shame no one thought to let you know. Hope readings are better when you get your next appointment.
