the reason the fence is tottering is that OH espaliered a young apple tree (the one in the photo) to it.
Blood test at the GP's on Monday and a couple of weeks later I've got a consultation with the hospital haemo department. I suppose they want me to have a blood test for that one as well, but the trouble is they haven't sent me a request form, so I may have trouble getting into the hospital to have one. I've tried phoning, emailing, filling out online forms etc but they never reply. Bah.
As OH also has another scan on Monday we have passed up the opportunity to mind baby O that day. I rather suspect the scan will show OH needs to resume chemo after having 10 months' respite, but we'll see.
