I don't care about Birthday cake (yeah right!), just throw my ball.

Six Months

Having adjusted my medication about three weeks ago, I was due back to see my GP yesterday. I'm happy to report he was content with my BP and has renewed my prescription for the next six months. So unless I have difficulties I can stay away from the surgery until then, yea!

See Life

A bit of an outing today to the big city, to the London Sealife centre which is situated opposite Parliament.

Some will know I don't enjoy driving into London and usually opt for the train and tube (the subway, in American). However I was persuaded to give it a go and fortunately there is excellent (allbeit expensive) parking just by Parliament, making for a short tourist trail past Big Ben and over Westminster Bridge. The Sealife centre itself was far better than I had imagined and despite the crowds I think we enjoyed our time there. Here are a few images from the day:

 

Victorian Workhouse

Thought I might post some images of the former Workhouse in nearby Wokingham. There are family connections in so far as one of Dad's relatives was born here, later did well for himself and became Alderman (or Mayor) of the town.

The building is now used as a National Health Service hospital and is thoroughly modern inside I might add.

The below plan of the Workhouse is from this interesting site. The photographs are my own.
