Day out..of sorts

 Today was CT scan day ...Pirate found that they work 12 hours a day and scan 35 patients a day....in a little cabin outside the hospital in Irvine.

Results in 10 days they say...

We had lunch out at the GRO café/restaurant/bakery at the end of Irvine Harbour Road....good organic coffee, sourdough toast, smashed avo, two large fresh poached eggs and fresh tomatoes...good atmosphere and good food..and popular! Luckily we had arrived just after midday..as we left the wait for a table was 60-90 minutes!! You can leave your mobile phone number and they call when actable is free....or you book beforehand!!

We have eaten at the other branch, by the Whitletts Roundabout on the A77 by Ayr..but I prefer this building. The food is good in both.

The wind was too cold for a walk afterwards...




Now he can to look forward (?!) to the MRI next Thursday...at least that is at our local hospital, but it will still be the same noisy, lying in a rattletube experience.

Your timing was perfect to get a table and enjoy lunch. I hope the test results are what you want.

One appointment after another - it must be so tiring and waiting for the results is stressful, too. Good luck!

...I hope that the results will be favorable.

Fingers crossed for the results. I do not enjoy lying in the rattletube as you call it.

Your jam looks excellent. The color is lovely and orange flavor is a favorite. Doing medical tests and waiting for results is always a bit stressful. Adding pleasurable meals and favorite activities helps during these times. Take care.
