Recording this for the record.

Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning.

Ran 10k, having previously been unable to run for a bus.

Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care.

Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a second like an idiot. Nobody saw. It counted.

Slept flat. Whole night. Flat.

Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down.

Reference on request.

Please do take that to your GP rather than waiting for the next review. Not to frighten you — just, go.

Would you be willing to say more about how you raised it? I have an appointment on the 14th and I keep losing my nerve.

The bit about the two hours before is exactly it. I have never seen anyone put it that way.
