Ongoing Tests

I was taken to Brest this morning for more tests, about an hour's drive from here; to begin with I had to lay on my back for two perfusions, one inserting a radio-active product to prepare me for another scanner, I had to keep my arms stretched behind my head while I passed through a tunnel, my left shoulder's ligament was caught so it wasn't comfortable. Now it's over I'm back to my room in Carhaix, but I'm radio-active, I have to drink as much as possible in 24 hours (water that is) in order to eliminate the radio-activity in my body, so I'm not allowed children or pregnant woman visitors. It was a beautiful morning for a drive out in the country and along the seaside, plus, the driver had been to the Breton school 'Diwan' at Le Relecq Kerhuon; we passed the time by comparing Breton/Welsh vocabulary, some of it identical, some not quite so and some different. avel/awel - wind/breeze: heol/haul: douar/daear: den/dyn: Menez/mynydd: merc'h/merch: kemper/cymer: here/hydref: yaouank/ieuanc: skouarnec/clust: ruz/rhudd - red/red/crimson.
