[QUOTE="SlimLizzy, post: 2137487, member: 488270"] 17-09-19 Breakfast none, just two cups of tea. However I did manage to clean the shower room, empty the dishwasher and clean the cooker. Picked up apples, more than one wheelbarrow today, no doubt due to yesterdays brisk wind. Off to Doctors, he does speak a little English, which helps a lot. He advises a consultation with a specialist, gives us a letter with the address and phone number, and then offers to phone for us. Five minutes and some Euros later we have the appointment for this afternoon. HOW GOOD IS THAT? Lunch out, buffet starter(managed to keep that low carb) but succumbed to a thin slice of baguette for my pâtè, veal kidneys in red wine sauce with salad for the main. But dessert, couldn't resist Crême bruleé. One of the best ever, perfect crunchy caramel nuggets, smooth, not oversweeted custard. Absolutely delicious. The meal included wine, I had two half glasses and several of water. Green tea afterwards. Killed time wandering about the city, once we had found the clinic. Tea at a pavement cafe. Times up, off to the clinic. Waited perhaps 15 min to see the consultant. He speaks better English than we do French. Examination - operation required, do we want it in France? He makes arrangements for us to see the anathestitist, operation will be in three weeks. Still cannot believe how fast this health system moves. Back home light? supper of pate, cheese, salad, bread, wine. Opened a can of corned beef for the Scaredy Cat,. Who is now sitting under the car and hoping for more. Trip to UK booked, parents and brother to provide accommodation, granddaughters primed for visit, looking good for end of October. [/QUOTE]
