150 / 88 with heart rate of 55 was this evenings BP reading 

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

Last Friday I slipped on a ford when walking between Crantock and Newquay. I dislocated my Humerus bone from my shoulder.  I have broken several bones in the past but this is the most painful trauma I have ever had.

Onboard, presumably by analogy with outboard and inboard.

Mr Boeing (originally Böing) was also a massive racist, even more blatant than Ford.  It seems to go with mass production of transport.
