« Last post by Pickled Onion on Today at 02:14:41 pm »Hi LNER, thanks for the helpful message telling me the second leg of my journey will be on time from platform 12 at Euston.
Unfortunately that's bugger all use as the first leg of the journey is delayed by 37 minutes, and I know you know this cos you've sent me about 37 messages about the delay. So although the original 40 minutes allocated for the connection was a bit OTT, I'm pretty sure I can't get from King's Cross to Euston in three minutes. Even on a Brompton.

My ageing mother did this a few years ago and has done well, following quite a lot of physiotherapy.

Single readings are no good.
You need to:
- sit or lie down for five minutes before taking a reading.
- take three consecutive readings over a 10 minute period.
They are consistently on the high side throughout the day. I'll probably try and make an appointment with practice nurse to discuss BP testing
