We had a pretty shit day yesterday
My wife was told after 16 months of testing (MRI scans, lumbar punctures etc) that she has got Multiple Sclerosis. Of course, it would be on the day the papers and news is full of Debbie Purdy being allowed to commit suicide....because of the pain of MS.

We decided to go out to a country pub for a meal to try and cheer ourselves up a bit. About 300 yards from the pub a fire engine screamed past us and went over the brow of a hill. We reached the summit to see 3 fire engines, 3 ambulances and a couple of cop cars. Yep, a major accident had happened minutes before, bang outside the pub. It looked like they were having to cut people out.

We turned around and went home. In a way it made us think that there WERE people having a worse day than us, but we are hoping for a slightly better day today.
