HOSPITAL PARADISE

JUST HOME FROM SOUTHEND HOSPITAL .. yesterday, about 1630hrs i was in the gEDEN, STOOD UP AND FELT THE WORLD LURCH TO MY RIGHT. MY RIGHT LEG JUST GAVE WAY LIKE IT WASNT THERE. AND I FELL BACKWARDS ON TO MANY FLOWER POTS.

I WS SEEN BY 2 REDIDENTS WHO BOTH CALLED AMBULANCES BUT because theyboth thought id fallen over due to booze so they didnt i much urgancey into the call, one said the ambulance would take 5 hours to get to me !

i could hardly speak, everytime in came out as a jumble of sounds erryuuuurrgh , for i ccant stand up.

i was convinced i was having a stroke.

some how i got to my feet and staggered to the car, trying to drive to the hospital, though i could hardly open both eyes together.blind driving.
made it to the corner shop and stopped and basicly fell asleep, being woken at 1900hrs when the shop closed, by the staff. aftwr assureing them i was fine, they left and i fell asleep aggain till was woen by a lady who lives in one of the 2 flats above the shop. sje kept me awake till an ambulance arrived at 2000hrs. after checking my blood sugar levels the crew where stuuned to see it was -3 POINT THREE.... I HAD A LOAD OF Gulcose drinks pouered down me mars bars and jam tarts. but after a hour of this medical sugarr fest my leveks where only at 2,5 so off to hospital i went, where i was put on a sugar drip in A &E then on a ward. finally they let me go home at 1800hrs today. bought a big bunch of flower for the lady above the corner shop.

strict instructions to do more bllod sugar tests and not let levels drop again. A diabeic hyper feels like a stroke apparantly and i can atest to that too.

nearly every bit of me hurts adfter falling over and laying for 2 or so hours on top of and next to flower pots and on the cold concrete floor in the garden . /SIZE]

paradise news letter update

had my foot done in north shoebury this morning, 15 min time appointment it took the young lad 15 mins just to work out what needed to be done, we spent so much time talking about body art and tats he had done in LOWESTOFT of all places. by some one you have to book 9 months in advance . SHE knows the place and i could drive there but dont know what its called.

went to the gym to work off the other days meal out in kent, it called for 3 X 20 min reps and then another 20 mins just so i could go have a mexican late lunch.
had to go buy a multy striped shirt as the rainbow tee shirt and matching shorts i ordered, should have been here today, but are not. as MEETING youngest and her special friend Sunday in london to attend ....Disco Royale: Pride Afterparty x UKRAINEPRIDE Fundraiser. Bet some people will be stunned as 'up tight' over gay stuff Chris is going to a GAY DISCO, lol i hope you make me feel mighty real is on the play list, so i can embarise with my oldy world soul boy-ish moves to that track, that at the time, we didnt know was a gay record, we just thought Silvester was colourful and a bit loud dress wise !!!
ill do a pic of the shirt i had to buy in the morning so viewers can see how colourful / silvesterist it is!

went shopping for a few bits and was tempted to call MOTHER, as LERPACK butter is on offer at ASDA for only £2.75 normal price about a fiver, as I know MOTHER likes that spread better than others. im sure theres av joke there some where about her spreading more for lurpak but i dont think im allowed to say that sort of thing any more ?

TODAY IN PARADISE...

yesterday and today spent most of the time doing gardening stuff in the garden, stuff that needed doing like picking strawberries . interesting combination,,, fresh strawberry with fresh rocket leaf.

yesterday started watering the garden and finished the watering today. the black bamboo i bought at garden centre with 'her' has at last established itself and lots of fresh canes, the advantage to this type of bamboo is the canes dont have knobbly ridges on them, which would cut the skin if used to cane some ones bottom, or other parts of the female body. shame they will only be used to support flowers now.

nearly time to go to france, second year of going on my own. still seems strange not planing events and outings and trips to la france without her.... or anyone else for that matter. so many fake people out there trying to prey on old fools like me.

sad paradise news letter,

just think, i passed on 2 free tickets to GLASTONBURY this weekend as i had no one to take with me.
It would have been worth going just to see Rick Ashley today and pulp when ever. The tickets i was offered even had GLAMPING free option in a yhurt !!!!! Theres only 2 persons i would have asked to come with me, but i can just hear in law going balistic if i said i take jamie, and i wouldnt have the nerve to ask the other person.

yesterday took mum shopping and she treated me to brunch at morrisons. their all day breakfast which most of it i couldnt eat, all loaded with salt and grease. i ate it and had nothing the rest of the day.

i have had 6 email / whats up chats with suposedly some 32 year old new subby in enfield,,,,i wish i could find the program that back tracts pic to the source. as i cant belive some one so young and attractive would be interested in an old git like me.

lost 2 more Kg that makes me 115kg only 25 more to go

after a long chat at the gym, come up with a new plan. instead of doing weights for an hour every other day. do 30 reps on the 7 main machines in 20 mins. so theres no rest between each machine its just full on go go go.

doctor at foot place in basildon hospital opned a slight bit of hard skin on RIGHT heal a few weeks ago. turns out there was a underlying 'void' this then exposed and now i have SPREADING WOUND ON RIGHT FOOT TOO. OPAT staff went shitfaced over it. so now both feet have to be done every other day. so worst case is i lose BOTH legs !

oN A POSITIVE NOTE MUM NOW ADMITTS voting to leav EU was a big mistake so thats alright then

YESTERDAYS POST SEEMS TO HAVE GONE THE WAY OF many things on alt and just VANISHED ???

Shows what a SOG (sad old git) I've become that I could find pleasure in simply counting 16 Bumble Bees and 9 Honey Bees all at the same time feeding on this planting of lavender this afternoon, after going to the gym for the second time today,

after listening to radio X so much today i was nearly tempted to buy 1 ticket to the PEPSI lounge at the O2, to see QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE but it was quite expensive,,,i might weaken and book it anyway
