  This is Le Moulin at Greve D'Leq that my wife I visited on Friday it was also the first pub I went to on my first visit to Jersey in 1973.Not changed and the 16th C water wheel runs through the bar! Quirky but good fun.

  This is a photo of a WW2 German Occupation Force Gun emplacement at Greve D'Leq. They are all over and surround the island. just thought forumites may be interested to see German constructions on British soil.The concrete used was imported from Germany and is identical to that used on the building of the Autobahn's.

  Yes Roger
  
  Since they diagnosed my illness one of the side effects if unchecked is weight gain,no facial hair etc all of which I suffered from for years.Now a baggy 38 waist from 48 without any real effort just treatment.

  Lovely pics, Marek, thank you. Obviously the addition of yourself in one of them enhanced the pleasure!

  A 38 waist suits you very well Marek - that's what I have (no cheek at the back !!).
  
  If you can keep it off you'll have done well.
  
  Take care.

  Chris, have they told you whether you are H63D or C282Y?

  Not yet but funny you should ask as tomorrow I have an appointment with the Consultant who was unfortunately absent last time and was covered by UK Doctor who was very non commital.But my blood dipped to 9,3 so they wouldn't bleed me below 9.5...

  Genetic test is essential as the course of the illness differs depending on which genetic mutation is the cause. Haemoglobin at 9.5 is mega low; Kathryn is double C282Y and is now on 6-weekly 600 ml bleeds for the foreseeable future.

  Those numbers/letters sounded like car reg. plates and couldn't get the connection - now I do of course.
  
  Kathryn keeps well on it - and you seem better Marek, so the treatment works.
