No snarling or hissing.

We may have turned a corner.

Apparently, my mother is being trained tomorrow on how to hand out condoms.

She's only been working as a clerk at the Sexual Health clinic for 18 years...

Tell her not to giggle when the word "trim" is mentioned

Obviously you know more about sexual health clinics than some of us here

I used to work above one . Every day they handed out hundreds of condoms ........ And every day at the end of the clinic they wandered around the area picking up condoms used as balloons and retrieving them from hedges etc.

Never struck me as a good use of taxpayers money LOL

Good news, here's hoping the long term fix isn't far away.

That's it. They said they could correct and rebuild the missing chunk out of my vertebrae but there is no evidence that this would help the pain. I'm not having any surgery on my back - too risky, I'd be no use in a wheelchair and unable to support my family. The specialist did say 'Are you aware of how incredibly lucky you were' pointing at the images. 'Yes', I said, 'I've not done too bad to get where I am now'.

Across a crowded reception this afternoon, the Prime Minister looked up, smiled and nodded at me. The woman I was talking to asked, "Do you know who that is?" "Yes," I said. "There's an election next month and he needs every vote he can get. Pity I don't have one."

From what I can gather, much of her time is spent explaining to grown women who phone up why they can't have an immediate appointment or just pop in to collect a prescription, despite the emergency of finding out they have run out of a finite and regularly diminishing supply of little round tablets. Someone telling her to go round the streets picking up rubber johnnies would get The Family Stare Over The Top of Her Glasses, which has been handed down though the generations.

I have swapped one grumpy male for another though by now my world traveller and Nuggeteer will probably be quite merry.

It's Lu, best say nothing.

I up and about but feeling crap, stomachs upset again, been getting these every few weeks since I got out of hospital last November, they last 24 hours then I'm fine, I'll have to talk to the doctor about it.

Yes, don't put it off.

So.....having had BT make a mess of our home move, I've discovered that British Gas have cocked up as well. Some operative recorded our house number as 4 instead of 43. So the booked engineer can't come and all my details have been sent to a complete stranger.

Is it too early to have a glass of absinthe?

Is the absinthe working ?Sorry to hear of your problems with the house move. Did the rest of your clothes turn up or are still wearing the same ones? Best of luck getting everything sorted out.

Off to Spinal Clinic shortly. Lots of questions especially about my discs being wedged due to correcting the damaged vertebrae's 'angle'.

Discharged from hospital.

That's it. They said they could correct and rebuild the missing chunk out of my vertebrae but there is no evidence that this would help the pain. I'm not having any surgery on my back - too risky, I'd be no use in a wheelchair and unable to support my family. The specialist did say 'Are you aware of how incredibly lucky you were' pointing at the images. 'Yes', I said, 'I've not done too bad to get where I am now'.

Well done to you.

They should be the right way round for a rightie. I'm a leftie, and use my fork (the one going to my mouth, thus most used) in my dominant hand. You righties seem to do it the wrong way round.
