blackmagic Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) it is hot here again although it was 3 degrees over night. I THINK i will try him with one. It is not much to lose if he won't use it but he lies on the wet patches on the beach and the cold tiles on the house to cool down so he seems to like lying on cool surfaces. He also lies in the shade of trees in the garden when it is hot. Cleo just lies in the sun and pants. Just gone to order and the postage is £6.99- nearly the same cost as the mat.

Yantan Posted June 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 blackmagic have you looked on Amazon? Some cooling mats are eligible for free postage if you have Prime. If you haven't I could order for you and have it sent direct to you if it's any use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griff Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 What time was he due Jazz? Is there someone you could call to tell them to come another day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackmagic Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Thanks Yanyan, JIm has Prime so can get him to order it. I did try to order from Zooplus but the minimum order is £19.00. Will have a look at Amazon. Today there has been a breeze so it has not been so hot. More enjoyable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 floor looks nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted June 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 At least things are moving now Jazz. Glad you like the floor. It's bloomin' hot. I slept in so was about 40 minutes later than yesterday in taking Archie for his walk. We didn't leave until 8.30am and it was uncomfortably close. We had a nice breeze blowing yesterday all day but it's still today and the sky is very hazy which is a sign of humidity. Has anyone had any experience of a delivery firm called 2MD? We've bought a new telly from Amazon but it's a 3rd part seller. They informed us that they dispatched the set on Saturday with delivery today but I've never heard of this delivery company. When I looked them up they have some awful reviews so I am not holding my breath. Ruby is still waiting for an appointment for the MRI/CAT scan. I wish they'd get a move on, she is starting to feel a bit stressed by the not knowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 the painter will be here this afternoon and it will be done I hope she hears soon xx its too hot here, put the fan in the bedroom last night, it was still uncomfortable not heard of that company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griff Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Marion, not heard of them but then yodel have some horrific reviews but on the whole we have had no bother. Does Ruby get any private health cover included with her job?? My dad worked for by and he paid into benenden....he still pays now and it's thanks to them I got my CT scan so quick..left to the NHS waiting list I would have died most likely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted June 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Yes Griff Yodel here are great, we've never had a problem with them yet when you look online..... And yes Ruby has private health cover through work and will use it if necessary. A work colleague, who has been treated for cancer, told her that there is a 2 week rule (I don't know if that is it's formal name) in the NHS. The aim is to get someone who may have a cancerous condition to be diagnosed one way or tuther within the 2 weeks. Ruby did ring the consultant's office yesterday and the secretary confirmed that they have the referral and that "it won't be long" before she hears from them. However if there is no word by tomorrow I think she will trigger the private health process. Archie and I are sitting indoors & sharing the fan in order to keep cool.

griff Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 To be honest I hate going private but I look at it that I am saving NHS funds and with 1less on the list someone else gets seen quicker..mine is only suitable for tests so I go NHS after my initial consult and scan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 yes it is a 2 week rule. they are very good here about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantan Posted June 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 Well Ruby got busy this afternoon and is going down the private route. She picked up a letter from her GP requesting a private consult on her way home. We've read it. Wish we hadn't. Anyway they will email her an appointment time tomorrow (we hope!) and she takes the referral letter with her. She's getting her self in a state and has gone to bed because, as she says, she doesn't have to think about it when she's sleeping. She can normally fall asleep at the drop of hat so I hope this will be the case tonight. She just needs to know for sure, to hear the words, to know what she's facing.
