for me to get there so I tried shopping online and was
really disappointed that there is hardly anything to choose
from on the website. They normally have loads in the
shop but the website just has a few different colour plain
bog standard baubles n tinsel, they emailed straight back
and offered to take photos of all the Christmas displays
and decorations, email them to me, and then if I tell
them which things I want they’ll have them delivered to
me. (Meanwhile they’re working on improving the
website.)

Bit of a stark raving nightmare appointment at the
Hospital today. Went in to see my Oncologist, a female
Doctor, Dr Harouda. Sat in the room waiting for her to
come in as normal and some random bloke I’ve never
seen before comes in, sits down n says "How’s it going?"
"Erm...ok...and you are?" (Either a different doctor or Dr
Harouda has really let herself go). He then proceeds to
tell me totally contradictory information to everything
I’ve been told before, attempts to prescribe inappropriate
and potentially dangerous drugs, hazards guesses as to
what drugs I’m probably already on (and guesses wrong)
tells me if I have any problems I can always ring the
emergency helpline (which I have never been told about,
he doesn’t have the number for and as far as I can
ascertain doesn’t exist) and finally when I tell him no
personal offence intended but he seems not to have any
of my relevant information he waves a scrap of paper at
me and says "Well to be fair this is all the information
I’ve got about you" Call me overly cautious but I don’t
feel terribly comfortable being treated by someone armed
