Another Thursday and another prescription collection for Mr J! Unlike the lovely sunny weather of last week, this week I was greeted by the wonderful British 'spring' weather...wet and windy!

I quickly dashed over to Boots where I had a short wait outside before I was let in. Once at the presciption counter I gave Mr J's details and after a little bit of a cross-examination by the dispenser I was given a small brown bag with Mr J's meds. Thankfully, it was only a short walk over to Mr J's as the rain was starting to come down harder...I had visions of the brown bag turning into paper mache before I arrived! 😄

Mr J buzzed me in and I headed up to the top floor. He was waiting for me outside his front door when I got to the top and instantly recognised me from the previous week. I handed over the small brown bag with his meds in and he gave it a quick shake. We both weren't 100% sure if the two meds he was expecting to receive were inside so Mr J decided to rip open the bag and check, he was pleased to see both were present and correct ✅.

We had a nice little chat about the goings on in the world and vaccines before we said our goodbyes for another week.
