Hello, MarciKS, no, I didn't think I was alone in this. The only thing they do for me the past few years is provide my maintenance drugs but they need to see me a couple times a year to keep the insurance money coming in to pay staff salaries, office rental and such. I suppose looking at the big picture, it's helping to keep the economy moving, assuming that isn't too optimistic a view? I'm fair to middlin', thanks for asking, and I hope this post finds all well with you too :). Don...

@Furryanimal , I hope you've got your fish and chips booked...everywhere was packed today all the parks and beaches in England, and even tho' it looked a little cooler in Wales, Barry island was also pretty crowded today, so the likelihood is it will be tomorrow too...

it's never been a law to wear masks outside in the UK.. !! However we all are supposed to stay a minimum of 6 feet away from each other.. .. This is Barry Island in Wales where Furryanimal is going tomorrow for his long awaited fish and chips.... however it's just a small place compared to most of us here in England.. go and look at my pictures on the coronavirus thread ..

Made a doctor appointment so they would refill one of my meds. They hold your meds ransom so they can get you in a couple times a year, don't want that insurance money to go unclaimed don't ya know. I have a very low opinion of the medical profession at the moment, so I'll stop now. Don...

There’s one of the differences between our respective health systems. Here in Sweden with our state system once I’ve been prescribed a drug and I need to renew it I simply go online and fill in which ones I want and a couple of days later collect them at the pharmacy. No need to visit the doctor. Also once I pass a certain amount of money that I pay then all my prescription drugs get cheaper. Once I reach a maximum amount all the drugs are free for the rest of the year.

Same here, repeat prescription online every month for me... one difference with us is that after 60, or if unemployed no-one pays for prescriptions
 
Did pretty much what i planned.
Morning cleaning chores.
Account got here, was an hour late....was surprised he got here at all....income tax done.
The dry pet food pick up all over the backyard....was a bust.....i couldn't begin getting it all....so, gave up on that, hopefully maybe it will blow in the next yard.
Wonder how many brownies, a person should eat in a day........well, for me, was a lot. 🍫🎂🍰. hmmmmmm, wonder if there's any left, feel like having another....i cut them in small pieces....so, it takes more than one to make a serving.

I like crowded....it was last year when i was there...and we don’t have to wear masks outdoors.They are very uncomfortable in hot weather as i discovered yesterday.And photographers have a way of making things look more crowded than they actually are.
i once picked up the paper on a Monday morning and discovered a photograph of a riot that i had supposedly been in.No riot and the photograph of ’thousands of rioting Welsh fans’ was i know, of no more than a couple of hundred making their way peacefully away from the ground!

I know, I said we don't wear masks, it's never been a law here to wear masks.

I like crowds too..but not 2 weeks before we're due for the grand opening, in case we get another wave and we're closed down again...



I know how pics can be manipulated in the Media, However these pictures are hard to argue with...

Anyway, have a good day Furry, enjoy yourself while you can... (y)

A photo taken with a telephoto lens makes everyone look much closer together than they really are. Not that I’m in any way disputing that in some places there were large crowds.

@hollydolly just love the photos of your environment and animals. When spring decides to put in an appearance here I’ll have to get out with the camera.
