That's over with, and long live the King

 (but no I won't be swearing allegiance, that's just silly and unnecessary, in my opinion)

Husband was in and out of the scan place in just 10 minutes, and that included waiting time!  He said the scan itself was so quick he barely had time to blink.  Bit of stress (for me) beforehand - we were due to leave the house at 4 pm, husband had taken Betty out for a 'quick' walk first.....by 3.55 he still wasn't home and I knew he'd most likely have to go to the loo etc before we left.  He breezed in just on 4 pm, completely oblivious - he's got no conception of time or urgency, he'd been gassing to a neighbour at the top of the road 😒.  Fortunately, traffic was light and we actually got there 15 mins early.  No idea how long it'll take for results to be sent to the Memory Assessment team, they didn't say and of course husband forgot to ask.

Well now that's over, we can (attempt) to put it out of our minds and just relax for a bit.  I'm really looking forward to sitting in front of the TV all day today 😂😂 - and husband will NOT have custody of the remote control - I'm not having him flicking between channels all the time like he always does.  The  quiche and some snacky bits are all ready and waiting, and I'm just about to make the scones for our cream tea.  I almost never drink alcohol, but will probably have a G&T (just the one) to toast the King, it is a probably once in a lifetime momentous event, after all.

The weather is supposed to be fine tomorrow, which is good as it means after our lunch with husband's daughter, SiL and grandson at the animal park tomorrow, we can all walk around and see all the animals.  It's a farm not a zoo, so they haven't got any exotic animals, but some alpacas/llamas, rabbits and guinea pigs, fancy chickens, small ponies, along with all the normal farm animals.  It's a nice place.

I've had a text from our lovely van neighbours C&J to say they're arriving back at the caravan park on the same day as we're going to stay there with my sister, which will be lovely.

I had an awful night, not much sleep at all and feeling every single ache and pain this morning.  I feel totally flat, probably due to all the stress lately and a reaction to husband's scan yesterday, so it's just as well I'm doing nothing today, other than the scones which take no time or effort to make.  Watching the Coronation will be the perfect thing to cheer me up.
