Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

So another pointless post from granny -):

IS THAT IT, Is that all you can come up with...

Give me something to get my teeth into, you fricking wimp.

Pointless being very apt description for stan with a little s .

Granny,

When you go, are you going to take your sweets with you?


Put Vicky on the lead and take it with you as a guard dog.

But find a country which will have you first!

Pity to wander as an emigrant.

The 4,000 patients denied life-extending cancer drugs that are available in Scotland and Wales:

Scotland and Wales are able to supply certain life-extending cancer drugs

The Rarer Cancers Foundation noted 8 drugs denied to English patients

doesn't answer the obvious question as to whether or not there are other similar and similarly effective drugs

nor does it answer the question as to whether these clearly very expensive drugs offer value for money - sounds callous, but by how much might life be extended, would that be with quality, and what side-effects

The Jocks and Taffs obviously think it's worth it.

England isn't getting a choice. (altho it pays the bills)

would rather die under UK NHS than the incompetent Welsh version!

Whats that got to do with it?

just being cheeky ........ but certainly NHS funds are far from bottomless so assuredly someone has to draw the line or at least decide on where money is best spent

Best spent, yes like on tummy tucks for the bone idle, boob jobs for the vane and of course gender change for the (can't think of anything), so much better than wasting money on cancer patients.

Don't start on gender GEORGE ,you'll be flogged , still it's nice to know we live in such a sane world that Obama thinks it's ok for me to use which public convenience i think i should, depending on how i feel .I don't need a sex change to suddenly feel like a woman and use their facilities .

The next (possibly) US President says we will not be at the back of the queue if we vote to LEAVE.

I thought you were an "old" woman.

I am pleased to see the young royals supporting the mental health campaign. This is a problem affecting a lot more people than we think (see this thread for example.. :-) and often only shows at adolescence.
While facilities have improved a lot, confused and frightened teenagers are still being sectioned a long way from home. They are locked up because they are ill, not for any crime, but as possible dangers to themselves and others. The support of the family is essential in such circumstances. The medications are getting more effective each year, and most are released, but many still require continuing support in order to ensure they continue with their medication and find jobs or other activities that stimulate the mind. The after care is the responsibility of the local councils and few give mental health support all the resources required.
Another case where I'd rather see money allocated to our mentally unwell, rather than fantastically corrupt countries. Charity really does begin at home when we are making up for holes in the funding of other countries because their politicians are squirrelling it away in foreign bank accounts.

(see this thread for example.. :-)

There is definitely a couple of mental health problems on here .

Yes,

Dumbo, you should be able to get some help.

Consider overseas charity as preventative medicine.

I prefer to see Ebola, Tb.,Typhoid diagnosed and treated at countries of "origin" than in this country. (Unless the treatment is necessary.)

Many of these countries don't have the finance, facilities or even know how.

Although education etc. is improving their "conditions".

Look farther than you own noses.
