It sure isn't. I agree on the overheating, it only went half way up, just never seen it do that before but came back down okay. I guess I was just in full panic mode by then!
Booked in for a scan, on Wednesday sadly, they can't even squeeze me in before and I suspect that even after they have done it they won't really know what it's telling them! Looks like Sussex on the train for us! Can't pretend I'm not worried, I love living here but it makes these things rather tricky when they happen.
Hmm
