and once to the pharmacy where they have at last managed to get my prescription out of the surgery and into my hand.
I find it a lot easier to just do the repeats electronically using MyGP or the NHS app. No bits of paper winging around for issue although you do get one with your meds generated at the pharmacy as a backup.

The problem with mine appears to be that the surgery aren't authorising one element of the repeats, the new one, Algolyptin.
Yesterday was dry and sunny again but a cool wind. At 20:00 it was calm, mild and we had thin scattered cloud. It's the same this morning and the glass is steady on 1027mb. The forecast is for a sunny day. The wind is light starting on the NE but then getting into the SW later. The high will be 16C and the low 6C with very little chill. This weather looks set for at least another week, lovely!

I'm scrubbed up ready for our set-off but it's cloudy and we have spots of rain in the wind. That wasn't on the hymn sheet!

We have lovely bright sunshine over here, nearer the sea than Barlick.

Yesterday turned out nice and at 20:00 it was calm, clear and mild. Same this morning and it hasn't changed. The glass is steady on 1027mb and the forecast is for full sun all day. The light wind starts in the East and finishes up as NW giving a high of 16C and a low of 5C with a light chill of 1C. The outlook is still for similar settled weather.

Yesterday was a nice Spring day and at 20:00 it was calm, overcast and mild. This morning it's the same and the glass is steady on 1028mb. The forecast is a re-run of yesterday, full sun all day. The wind is very light and variable and mainly SE. The high will be 16C and the low 5C with little or no wind chill. The outlook is two more days like this and then on Monday we see the return of cooler, more seasonable, weather.

Yesterday was as the day before and at 20:00 it was calm, mild and we had a light overcast. It was the same this morning and hasn't changed. The glass is up slightly on 1030mb. The forecast is for a day of full sun. The light east wind is constant and gives a high of 16C and a low of 5C with hardly any chill. We can expect another day like this tomorrow and then temperatures will start to drop to possibly below the seasonal norm by the end of next week. Never mind, we have had a good run!

I had to post a letter so I have had another walk and a sit opposite the bookies. The sun is really warm and it is very pleasant out there.....

Me too. I had a 'double take' - doesn't seem any time at all since I had the trauma of putting them back.

Walked up Buck St from Sainsburys to the Red Lion car park. The gradient felt like 1 in 2. or round 80%. nearly put my lights out. The only thing that kept me going was an elderly lady with a walking stick that was following behind. I don't know if she would have beaten me with the stick or thought I needed it more than she did. Won't do that route again.

We went up Skipton Road and then along Market Street, much more civilised

You all know what yesterday was like and at 20:00 it was calm mild and dry. Same this morning and the glass is up on 1031mb. The forecast is for full sun all day. Once again the east wind is light and gives us a high of 14C and a low of 6C with a -2C chill. It will cool down now and by Thursday and Friday we will be into single figures with night frosts. Not a bad little mild spell to knock Winter on the head though....

Over 10C warmer than us Cathy and we will soon be back in single figures during the day. I will get my new coat back from Myra just in time for the cooler weather!. (She's shortening the sleeves......)

Yesterday stayed fine but was cooler, once again the wins was cold if you were caught by it. At 20:00 it was calm, cool and dry with a light overcast, it was the same first thing this morning and hasn't changed since. The glass has fallen to 1024mb and the forecast is for a cloudier day with the chance of a light shower after lunch. The light wind is northerly for much of the day and gives us a high of 13C and a low of 5C with a -2C chill. The outlook is for cooler weather, By Wednesday night we could be cold enough for snow. Winter may be about to have a crack at us to remind us we aren't out of the wood yet!
05:30. We have light rain......

Yesterday turned out nicely actually and it was pleasant out in the afternoon. At 20:00 it was calm, mild dry and overcast. It's the same this morning and the glass is down with a bump on 1012mb. The forecast is for a dry cloudy day with sun breaking through this afternoon. The constant light east wind gives a high of 11C, a low of 3C and a -2C chill all day. The outlook is for much cooler weather, a lot of it sub zero when wind chill is taken into account. Our warm spell is over!

Bright again all day yesterday, but noticeably cooler as the day went on.

I agree with Gloria.
Yesterday afternoon that wind was colder than forecast. At 20:00 it was dry, overcast and cool. Still the same first thing and since then no change except for the fact that we are getting a spatter of raindrops. The forecast is for significant rain until early afternoon. The glass has fallen again to 1005mb. The constant NE wind is moderate giving a high of 4C and a low of -1C with a chill of -4C which means effectively that the temperature will be sub zero all day. Mother nature is reminding us that we aren't into Spring yet! The outlook is for it to be colder but not quite as cold as today for the next week.
