Good Morning Worlds!
We are taking Mum shopping this morning, and then I have a GP appointment for a routine blood test (my choice of book to read last night was so that it would fit in my book pocket while we're out, so I have something to read while waiting).
Then I need to meet the drains chaps in Northenden to discuss some drains repairs.

If all that happens before lunch then we'll try to do a scrap metal run to get a few quid for the trailer load.

I had my blood taken.

If possible I am going to avoid this particular nurse in future. It really hurt when she removed the needle, and still hurts.😢
I had to support my arm, with my hand in a pocket, for the walk home.

I mentioned it hurt at the time, and she replied that it sometimes does when the needle comes out.

I've not had that with the other nurses. The initial 'scratch' is as bad as it gets. I guess this nurse isn't so good at removing the needle.

@Maker_of_Things The best I had was when I got drafted and the blood sample bus came around, with people who were going around the country sampling blood from several thousand draftees each day.

It was super fast and you barely felt anything at all.

The worst was in a hospital where they put a cannula in my hand and it hurt like hell when it went in and I yelled at the nurse, who just shrugged and told me to stop being a crybaby. When it came out a week later the needle was bent because she had scraped it along my bone going in 😬
