And so, my Chiropractor's appointment comes round again. Leave the house at 0830 to head over to Southsea; coffee in Knight and Lee's department store (probably one of the last department store restaurants with waitress service) and then to the clinic for my appointment. Where I am greeted with "Ah... we left a message on your answerphone...". At which point I discovered 1) My chiropractor has a raging toothache and is scouring Portsmouth for an emergency dentist and 2) The clinic doesn't have my cellphone number. I'm sure had I not been on the Effexor, I would have kvetched for England (or Golders Green at the absolute minimum). Instead, I was quite calm about it. Decided to head off to Chichester instead and make an attempt at a few little bits of early Christmas shopping.

Arrived in Chichester 20 minutes late thanks to the wonderful state of the British rail system (a rail had broken just outside Portsmouth). Went into MVC (a chain of music and DVD stores) and was complemented on my beard by a very cute, longhaired bearded little bear. And then, at the market square, a very woofy folk band was playing live. All in all, Chichester was full of woofy, furry goodness yesterday.

On to today... mundane stuff - second coat of paint on the bathroom floor... general tidying up... bolognaise sauce... and "Crap From The Past" on the PC...
