Ah... JeffMack!
When do you want our expertise (guesses) for the first race at
Cheltenham? Does it have to be before the actual day?

Yes very sad, it's along time since I've seen him but I remember his TV shows, I know I didn't miss many.

Dave Allen was younger than I thought, its years since I have seen him on TV. He was a family favorite when I was a kid.

They produced a video a few years ago with various sketches
from years back including the one where they could only
bury one person a day in the cemetary and the two lots of
undertakers were racing to get there or they couldn't bury
them until the next day - it was so funny, he could make a
joke out of so many things and not be offensive.

Just back from the latest ear op where it was an 'Alice in Theatreland' sort-of-day. It seems Fridays are 'Hip' days and all the adult rooms and wards were full. So I was put in a private room, with terrace and mini bar....on the Pediatric Unit. I thought it was odd as I had to push two cots, a pedal fire-engine and a large Bart Simpson toy out of my way to get down the corridor to my room. Where I waited. For 40 minutes. My Consultant bounded through the door and said he'd been paged to confirm his assessment of my mental age as it was most unusual to have an adult on their floor! They assumed I had the mental age of a child.....
I had my own nurse, who had to come down from the adult floor above as all the other nurses only knew about patients less than 5 foot tall and the trolley that came to get me had pink and blue teddies all over it and the gas-man was sporting elephants on his 'uniform'!
It was amusing and nice to see how they treated this big kid. My two nurses were lovely and they did keep explaining to all the staff my mental faculties appeared fine, but lots of grown-ups offered to hold my hand and said I was very brave!
I ordered a prawn sandwich and a glass of wine for lunch and somebody had 'corrected' my childish naughtiness and brought me a tuna sandwich and a can of orange. With a Thomas the Tank Engine cup.
I have my Certificate confirming I was very brave sitting next to my keyboard!
Large glass of white burgundy, please, someone. In a wine glass, this time, if possible.

P sounds like a fun day, in as much as anything with doctors and hospitals can be. I would have tried out the pedal fire engine myself. Anyway hope you feel OK and it sorts the problem out.
Will you be well enough for a LDC next week? Lambykins keeps asking for a slice ;-)

Thanks, Fundy! Is there a second glass. The first one was the quick-evaporating type.

Good evening all. It's the weekend once more and time to have a rest.

Only the directors' way of marking Red Nose Day, Socs. If it was called Blue Nose Day, the shares would have gone up.

love the DYS logic - if you check your glass it is full again and will magically refill itself everytime it goes below 1/4 full for the rest of the evening :-)

I was thinking about you and your ear op today. It must have been odd in the infants ward. Just as well you didn't need the "facilities". They might have been just a little small.

Well I took one look at the theatre gown they brought from me and asked my nurse to bring me something a little more suitable from the adult ward. It had bunnies and ducks but not a lot of material!
Great glass of wine this, fundy!
