i really should do a proper post but am too busy watching 90210 even though it's crap

SO this might be a short one. This weekend I am grateful for:

• amazing weather - serious heatwavey stuff of the kind that has fat English people out burning themselves into lobsters because they cannot believe their good fortune

• walks in the countryside with lovely people - who ironically all managed to burn themselves in manner detailed above (minus the obesity). Embarrassing.
  

• G&T and gluten-free burgers and chips in country pubs
  
• Medsoc
• gluten free sticky toffee pudding at midnight (recipe will probably follow when I get it off George - beware!!! is seriously addictive)
  
• cupcakes
• crap Tom Cruise films like Cocktail - and much better films like Amelie
  
• friends popping in for cups of tea/wine/Pimms
• Pimms and strawberries, dahling
  
• Edinburgh city and hat shops and Chocolate Soup
• cartwheels - evidence of Minti's expertise below:

• Belle and Herbs - and their caramelised onion and goatscheeeeeese omelette - and the Belle and Herbs special smoothie
• the fact that the G injections weren't so bad this time - had them each evening at about 9 and must have slept through any backachey side effects
• swimming pools and flatmates who teach you a version of the front crawl where you don't swallow half the pool
• Minti's pasta puttanesca
• old friends and acquaintances emailing me
  
• cinema trip with Gaita to see creepy-depressing-yet-strangely-beautiful Swedish vampire film
  
• the fact Jenny had a camera so could put pics up to make a respectable length blog entry instead of "Awesome weekend. Tired, going to bed, ciao ciao."

Chemo #5 is tomorrow and my PET scan is scheduled for 15th June ... fingers crossed. My haematologist poked my neck on Friday and say "Hmm that lump just feels like scar tissue - I would be very surprised if you were not in remission by now..." YESSS....

Will let you all know how chemoschmemo #5 gets on - and the severity of my usual complement of side effects. Off to bed soonish.....
