As the RW was no better yesterday, and indeed the old chest seemed to be worse, a telephone call to NHS 24 provided an appointment within the hour with an out-of-hours GP at the Vale of Leven hospital. Now, considering that the RW's GP needs about a week's notice of your illness before he can see you, this was impressive stuff. Speaking to folk about this since, I'm told it's definitely the best, easiest and quickest way to see a doctor these days in this part of the world.
However, although some anti-biotics were forthcoming, the RW is still poorly and feeling cheated today. She'd already penned in today as her last holiday off work for the year - and here she's off sick anyway. Not much cheer around the Rectory at the moment - but things can only get better!
