So I do have excess cholestrol. How very grown-up! The norm is between 5 and 6- and mine is 7.4. The doctor wants to do another test- just in case this is a rogue result- but it won't be.

I finished Parade's End.  England has been smashed to bits in the Great War and the wreckage is being scavenged by loopy, American millionaires. Now for Ford's other masterpiece, The Good Soldier. 

But something lighter first. How about a book on past-life regression by David Wells (off Most Haunted)? Yes, that should do very nicely.

Did they prescribe you a "statin" for it? I feel like they should. Is your blood pressure ok?

David Wells - much more plausible, and usually closer to the mark, than the mad scouse fool with the ear ring.

If the second test comes up with the same result he'll put me on statins and aspirin. My blood pressure is a little low.

I like David Wells. He seems such a sweet man. I should imagine it's very difficult to keep your integrity on a show like Most Haunted, but he appeared to be trying.
