Nipping up to Edgware

A cold start, and off to Edgware this morning. I discovered on the train that when I plugged in my laptop to recharge overnight, I failed to turn the switch on. I needed it to sort some things out for Mum. Feeling drained and depressed on the train, and was irritable all day.

Once in Edgware and was walking towards Mum's place, it made me think of being in Edgware in my twenties, when times were colder. A chat with Rupa and Wynford, and Wynford's sister Linda. They are taking Mum to the pub tomorrow. 

Mum drove us off to The Waggon. We met Steve there, who had kindly helped mum understand her tax form last week, and has set her up on the Government Gateway. However, this means that the authentication code to enter the Government Gateway is sent to Steve. I was unable to change Steve's number to mine in Mum's profile, as when I accessed it on my phone, I selected stay signed in for seven days. So I will have to trouble Steve again. However I bought him a large wine to thank him for his continual help and support for mum. It soon filled up with the men at the end of the bar that Mum is friendly with. We zoomed off to Edgware, and then I left for Seaford and got back in just over three hours, my steps all done. Feeling somewhat worn out though.

Meanwhile Beth seems to have developed jaundice, and Lorraine took her to the hospital for check ups after pulling her lids and finding yellow eyes, James and Julie  looking after baby Enzo. Beth feels okay, and it may be just the after effects of all the other stuff that has gone on.  She has to go back for more checks tomorrow.
