A friend of mine reminded me yesterday that I should be eating some fermented foods to help my gut recover from the battering it's had recently. So kefir it is, as I couldn't find kombucha in my local smallish Tesco and I hate kimchi! I started a batch of sauerkraut a few days ago - red cabbage and beetroot - but it's not ready yet.

Good news - I've had a phone call from Dermatology and I've a date in three weeks for the removal of a mole on my back. Unfortunately I won't be able to do anything energetic for six weeks afterwards, but assume walking will be okay without a rucksack.

I got home from the Mind shop to find an Outstanding Penalty Charge Notice.... for the previous owner of this house! Surely that means that the DVLA haven't been advised of a change of address for her, which is an offence. Anyway, I'll email Derby City Council and possibly also the DVLA, because I've owned this house for four years, and it was rented out by the offender and her husband for several years before that.
