Good evening. I went to Crafty Club this morning. Took a new piece of sewing I am working on. It's in a large hoop, with a needle felted colourful background and I am sewing broken pieces of jewelry onto it. Straight after that I had a coffee with Angela, that was the third coffee of the morning. Far too much for me, I need to keep it down to no more than two per day. After a late lunch I did two dog walks. I was going to go to Aldi after that but couldn't be bothered. Now it's getting dark earlier I feel less inclined to go out after 6pm. I will go tomorrow.
I had a letter on Saturday, we still have Saturday deliveries. It is on headed paper from the NHS. It had my address on it, but not my name. It is a circular they are sending out to random people. To all residents. You are invited to take part in Our Future Health, the UK's largest ever research programme. If you take part you will have the chance to find out more about your health now, and your risk of developing some diseases in the future.
Our Future Health needs up to five million people. Taking part includes answering some questions about yourself, providing a blood sample, and having your blood pressure and cholesterol levels measured at a local clinic. You will have the option of receiving information on your risk of some diseases including diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers. This will be calculated using the information you provide and analysis of the DNA in your blood sample.
I have checked out the web site for Our Future Health. I was particularly interested in who is funding this. Check out who they are partnered with.
Here are just a few.
I was having a conversation with someone who has been having difficulties with getting treatment for a sore foot. It has been going on for a while now and each time he has an appointment with a GP they don't have any answers. They give him another appointment with another specialist. He said the waiting room at the surgery was full to bursting with people going in and out. Gone are the days when you could go to a doctor with an ailment and come out with a diagnosis and treatment. They seem to pass people from pillar to post and keep them hanging on. I have heard similar stories from quite a few other people.
I am wondering why the NHS is looking for new customers when they can't even deal with the ones they already have. I won't be taking part in the research. I will forfeit the £10 voucher they are offering.
Here is a rubbish video I recorded on Thursday at South Ferriby. The sun was making it difficult to see the screen on the camera, I was trying to shelter from the wind, as well as watching where I was putting my feet. Don't bother watching it, it's not very good.
I need to get Mayze in now. She would stop outside all night if I let her.
Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip. ilona
