Dad's operation

Left for hospital this morning with Mam and Dad at 0800, his appointment was 0830 and of course, being typically early it was 0815 when we got there, i dropped them off and drove to Tesco's to top up with dog food for Megan as i am off to work tomorrow and don't expect others to supply her food.
I was back at hospital by 0900 and found my way to the Surgical day ward on 2nd floor of Shotley Bridge Hospital. Dad was in a side ward with mum and had had all his particulars taken and paperwork was all done, the surgeon was there checking the lump on his finger to be removed and the small tumour to the right of his right eye on the side of his face, the proceedure would be quick and it was, he left us for theatre at 0909 and was back by 0935, he had a cup of tea and a biscuit as had only been under a local anaesthetic and i ran to get car and picked them up and drove home, I walked Megan in the afternoon and then packed and sorted out clothes ready for my trip.

The weather has been dry but thsi evening it is raining (28/12/07), nothing worse than damp weather when you have a dog to walk who likes to run through muddy puddles.
