CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Morning Blue, Nice for Big Al to have a holiday home on the North Sea .......exotic, umh not so sure about that!
Any tea ready?

Optomistic the urn has been bubbling away and a fresh cup on it's way to you, or was it pot, lol.

Morning all. Spacie, you have my sympathy - pneumonia can be so annoying :-)

Spacie. I always get my home made life support machine out the loft when I feel a cold approaching.

The beep beep beep kind of reassures me ;O)

Morning all.

Large pot of tea please and a couple of crumpets if there is any.

Good morning! :>)
I'll just take a pot of tea, 2 paracetamol and 2 danish to the patient (spacie) bless... ;>)
How is everyone else?
There have been colds running about for weeks now round here, the changing weather doesn't seem to help a lot.

Can I have a couple of Danish Blondes as well please Bunny? ;-)
At least it's nice weather this morning, although that does mean it's going to start getting unpleasently warm in here later on today! Still better go and water the plants...

Morning all, thanks for your good wishes.

Following Keaydians advice I have connected myself to my life support machine and I am on 100% oxygen and on bunny's orders I had a couple of paracetamol as well. The girlfriend also prescribed and made me a special high vitamin C fruit smoothy.

I just rang the hospital and asked for a full time nurse to be sent round straight away but they refused, they had the cheek to say that they reserved nurses for use with people who are actually ill! do they know how bad a cold actually is? all I can say is that as soon as I am better (assuming I survive) that I shall be writing to my MP.

After I phoned the hospital I did wonder whether I made a mistake in describing exactly the sort of age and appearance and interests that the nurse should have.

Beep beep beep beep

Oh dear Spacie

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

beep beep beep beep

You really must keep the battery plugged in on those things. Mind you it sounded like one of my ex's when she was reversing her car - normally followed by a loud crash.

Now then Keaydian I think you're skills are better employed elsewhere then caring for the suffering......
How about clearing out the ashes from the fire, after all they are due to the logs...

JS - danish for you of course :>)

Thank goodness for that Spaceman that you didn't take me up on my offer of being nice to you, lol, and you have taken up the offer of the others. You asked me the other week what my job was and I never told you that I specialised in the recuperation of males who suffer from colds in order to prevent the cold developing into man flu!!!! I have even written to many an MP in order for it to be the main priority in the hospital intensive care unit if needed. And of course I have a whole team of nurses who work for me, females of all ages and descriptions and males if there is a requirement.

(Grabs dustpan and brush from the cupboard)

(sweep sweep sweep)

All done Stockbunny ready for Spacie.

My goodness - double danish rations for Keaydian! Bit worried about the idea that the fire is now ready for Spacie though.......

In fact talking medical - I'm sure many Dr's have a sadistic streak!
I have been nagged for about 3 years now to go for a routine cholesterol blood test as our Dr has a policy to check those of us over 40 for it - so every appts after the age of 40, up comes the subject of this test - oh yes and the diabetes one as well. Ok preventative medicine is a good thing...

BUT....

What I find horrible is this issue of no eating or drinking - apart from water - from 9pm until after the blood is taken the next morning! Are they nuts? No food, no milky tea for 12 hours! I may be slim but thats why I need regular feeding, no breakies and I'm in a right mood, no tea and well!!!&^&%$

So tomorrow morning your truly here will be on black tea and a fag until after 8.20 when said blood is extracted - it's not my fault if they get an armful of caffine and nicotine! And straight afterwards I am heading at full pelt to the bakers - approx 50 yards - to get my hands on FOOD! May take a flask of tea with me.....
;>)

and another thing.....
(drags back soap box from corner)
Why do Dr's take one look at a slim person and say I can't imagine you need to eat a lot anyway? What! In common with most slim people I know, I need to eat, I eat a lot, don't have the 'reserves' to fall back on!

Told her I eat carrots and lettuce and...

OK I'll shut up now......
