Went to the MCN bike show at the East of England Show Ground near Peterborough.
Last show there, the place is being turned into a housing estate soon. I'd like to say that it ended on a high, but it actually ended on a whimper, had done nearly all of it in an hour.
Because my daughter is adopted there is funding available from the original adoption agency once we have a exhausted all routes with local agencies.
Currently doing a bullshit online zoom parenting course as part of that process. Plenty of scope for a rant but this is not the place.
Been over our friends Steve and Julie's place......they're the ones with the exotic animals.
Hadn't seen them since we took the boys around to see the monkeys a year ago.......so they wanted the story on what happened with the Fat Munter.
You tell people some of the things she said and did and they just look at you in disbelief!
Anyway, their Rottie homed in on me as she always does......so I spent most of the time fussing her.
And then Steve brought his giant poisonous lizard out......no way was I going to fuss that fucking thing!
Get this for a long NHS waiting list-
One of my sons has always had ants in his pants. Basically undiagnosed ADHD. This has never bothered any of us as he a very happy, positive, energy filled ball of life. However at uni working at a higher academic level the lack of concentration is effecting him as we suspected it would so went to the GP last May for a referral.
So one year on I email to check where he is on the waiting list. Apparently they didn’t receive this referral until October and have said -
It’s approx 18 months to get ‘triaged’ then you go on another list for assessment which is 18-24 months after which if diagnosed you go on a ‘new patient’ list for which the wait is in excess of 5 years.
So a total of 8 to 8 1/2 years. WTAF
