Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....
 
That's it, now I am on the pill. I visited Dr Nuray today as the old pressure was still high so it seemed the sensible thing to do. I have a lot of faith in this lady, since she guided me in the right direction over the gall bladder problem, a couple of years ago. Well she gave me a complete once over when she discovered how high my blood pressure was. She has an ultrasound machine in her surgery and was able to check out all the essentials such as kidney, liver and even the prostrate. Thankfully these appear to be o
ld but working well so I now have pills to try to bring the blood pressure down and she wants to check things out weekly for a little while. So that's it, take the pill and stop worrying. Good news, now we can get on with the French lessons.
When we were in UK we bought a visual/audio French course as clearly we are a bit rusty after all these years and "the pen of my aunt" is not much use to anybody. It is amazing how much is coming back, but it is 25 years since I last did any work in France. Whatever we say, it is a hell of a lot easier than Turkish.
Oh yes, our friend Richard is still with us. He was here house sitting whilst we were away and has not yet found any other place to rent, so we have said make a contribution to the trough and stay around. No doubt when business starts to pick up again he will want to be off, but in the meantime it is good to have him here, not the least because he is on a very strict diet, so that puts us all on one. Maybe I will finally lose some of this weight.
