Wow that week went quickly Sarah!
Afternoon everyone! Hope the cruise was enjoyable Teebs? And happy hols to Carp!
We're back in the 'shire again but only briefly - I need to go to choir tomorrow, on Weds we're meeting brothers- and sisters-in-law for lunch in Oxford then on Thursday it's back down to the seaside. I wish teleportation was an actual thing!
I hope to squeeze in a lido swim and a run or two while we're here though.

Hope you enjoyed Valencia, ar.
We’re not actually going into Valencia - sticking two small coastal towns instead.

Hello all

Have read all posts and promptly forgotten everything

Lovely coastal eBike ride here - was very windy.

Doctors visit re MRI scan on knee and basically lots of little things wrong but nothing major so just strengthen up the knee and hope it improves 🫣 has order a blood test though to see if we can find out why I am so exhausted all the time.

So I shall now gradually start doing more exercise/strengthen bits with the knee and see what happens.

That good that there is nothing major going on. Hopefully the bloods will help get answers too.

When I say nothing major- knee cap is slightly tilted, I have fluid where it shouldn't be and arthritis, plus a load of other jargon I didn't understand 😂😂

Glad to hear you know what's happening now MM and can hopefully work on a plan with that PT of yours.

Valencia was lovely, although we though it was a bit smelly and grubby in places. We also went to the Aquarium (or other fancy name) and saw some of the other buildings in the locality.

Thanks for the welcome back, I can't get my head around where everyone has been, where they currently are or where they are going. We're a nomadic bunch at present. Hopefully my fuzzy head will pass!

Hugs to MM - hope you can make your knee work for you. I'm a big advocate of strengthening exercises. We were never designed to do nothing.

:) I'm in Javea - only another day to go now. SW has been home for a week but she's now back somewhere north of Valencia. Som's on his hols somewhere in the UK, er.... I can't remember the others now, but it's been a big month for travelling this year. :)
