A medical first

The weather is still good but very windy . They are forecasting 26 for Monday .
The week started with Linda wanting medical attention . Here in our village we have a doctors surgery every monday and thursday mornings. You first go along and put your name on the mornings list , and usually the doctor sees only 15 patients but never turns any one away .
Other mornings you can go to another village the doctor is at or go to Muro the nearest town about 8 kilometers away , where there is a 24 hour emergency centre , and if needed at Alcoy is an A and E .
Our doctor is a lady doctor and speaks perfect English .
Well on Monday in the village they opened our brand new surgery , along we went but as typical the telephone company had not connected the telephone or the internet . The doctor under difficult circumstances managed to see nearly everyone but as Linda could wait we decided to go back on Thursday. Linda has a painful shoulder and was prescribed anti inflammation capsules and is starting to feel better . I had a few years ago prostrate cancer and my treatment was first class .
Today as usual I go to the village for fresh bread and a coffee and tostada , having first seeing to all the animals .Linda was in bed , but decided to wash her hair as we where going to town and on coming through to the lounge realised all the animals had broken into the garden . BY the time she had rounded up 4 goats 2 donkeys and a pig she had at least let the wind and sun dry her hair . happy days !
