    I’m hoping for slightly cooler temperatures than those you are experiencing but, “it is what it is” so I will prepare myself. I can’t wait to get started - less than two weeks to go. Luckily, I got my ICD fitted on our NHS so the cost of it, together with my treatment were free at the point of...
