Morning Honey.:+))))))))))))))))

Hope things work out then, surely the person isn't waiting for treatment from a doctor, do you mean hospital treatment?

I'm back.
Just ordinary treatment usually from the practice nurse. A simple injection of B12 that if given at the right time would have saved him from complete numbness on one side of the body, fainting all the time and crippling lethargy among other things.

The nurse has been off sick and first we were told the doctor could do it and they would ring (no call) then we were told to wait for the nurse (still off sick) then we were told to ring every morning to see if there was a cancellation (they are inundated because the doctor is doing the nurse's work) and finally today fearing he was going to drop dead i dragged him to the surgery, we got an appointment ,only to be told that the doctor CAN NOT do injections (by the very same receptionist that told us he will) (twice)

At this point I flipped and told the practice manager who was horrified and had him sent to the medical centre within half an hour.
We tried walking because i was worried the taxi wouldnt come quick enough with it being school run time, but halfway there he collapsed and there wasnt much i could do other than hiss at him to get up and order a taxi which got to us right away.

They were really helpful at the medical centre and offered him water and let him rest etc, and next time its due the nurse is going to come to the house to do it, so alls well that ends well.

Usually with medical mistakes i think it is a case of good people doing their best in an underfunded and overcrowded system being too busy, and having misunderstandings, but this very same receptionist is at the root of all the mistakes by the look of it.
I hope she is soundly thrashed by the practice manager.

Hello peeps


I went to a fabulous 21st birthday do last night and my daughter was doing my make up in the garden. We could hear the small children next door playing on the trampoline together. It never ends well and yesterday was no exception. The mother came out and yelled at them and said she was going in to get their pyjamas ready.
As soon as the mother had gone in the four year old girl said " Oh sod it, Im having a pina colada! [/quote]


I think I can actually beat that with a lovely little conifer ( to fill a gap in the fence) that I bought about 5 years ago to replace a similar conifer that i bought 5 years before that, that died of old age before I could plant it out. The layest one isn't loking too happy..
I hope there isn't a Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Conifers

good luck to them, I think Kim will need it!

Good grief

excellent idea!

I've got to go to the doc this afternoon for the yearly review of my prescription. I just HATE this! I feel SUCH a failure for needing the medication in the first place.

Dont tell CL, he will take that as an invitation to sit in the garden recliner chair for another two years.

This morning he took his lunch out of the fridge. There were two identical containers of curry. One was smack bang eye level at the front with a note on top asking him to empty the dishwasher and the other one was hiding behind two lettuces, a bag of tomatoes and a shrivelled ginger.
Needless to say, he "didnt notice" the one at the front.

Him too. I am not sure i could bear to look at her expressionless face every day. I would rather like to see a reality show of the marriage though. It would be riveting for all the wrong reasons.

You are not a failure. Nobody ever got a prize for not needing medication, and nobody chooses to have an illness.

Love it - I know how she feels!!


Get Hicky round, he hasn't got much on at the moment


Good grief Honey, that woman needs horse whipping. Why do the least qualified and suitable people always get jobs at doctor's surgerys??

Moots - no-one becomes ill or needs medication on purpose. If you need it, take it and don't give it another thought

looking at the wedding photo, I wonder why Kim chose to wear just a transparent petticoat over what appears to be an industrial grade pair of Spanx?


I hate to think of the money it costs the NHS, and I always end up feeling sorry for myself (so negative) and wondering what is the point of carrying on...

I am sure you have paid in more than you take out, not that that matters. We all pay in for the benefit of others and on the off-chance we might need it ourselves. Some are lucky, some are not and no sane or decent person would begrudge anyone medical treatment.

Kimberley and two second Steven's wedding was a far cry from the grand affair he had described his wedding to be... which is fine, if only he hadn't boasted and drawn attention to it.

Maybe giant pants are in fashion? I cant keep up. I have only just managed to stop myself gasping in horror at bra backs and straps openly displayed.

Our bridesmaids dresses were perfect" ?

It looks to me like someone has gone to a lot of trouble to transform the rather beautiful Helen into an unhinged looking frump. Still... as long as Bianca and Helen liked the design I suppose thats all that matters.
(i jolly well bet Kimberly chose them)

i love everyone

That's nice.

It's nice to be loved.

And there's an awful lot of people that would like some.

That's nice, dear

The photo I saw earlier (now gone) probably was Kim in her petticoat and spanx, and I am thrilled to see that she added another layer

Bridesmaid's dresses - old curtains from granny's boudoir with pelmet included.

talking of wedding dresses, I rather liked the one worn by Mrs Kim Murray

Maybe Kimbot is a fan of the sound of music? Did you see Helen's tirade about Jale and Mark?

Yes it was lovely, and they all looked very happy too in the photos I saw. I thought it was funny when the reporter accidentally spoke to the man with the strongest accent in Scotland and couldn't understand one word. I like to think that the man was hurling insults at the reporter.

Did anyone see "Safe house"? I couldnt ,make head nor tail of it and maybe its just my TV but half the time it was all too dark to see what was going on. It might as well have been on the radio.

Good morning you lot.



18c today in London.

Good Morning Everyone.:+)))))))

Another nice day expected.
15.6C, 5.6mph wind, 0 rain, 11.1 hrs of Sun.


Good Morning Eddy.:+)))))))))))))))

It looks a nice day for you then.
I'm pleased with it here.

I'd like to wish a Happy Birthday to the Queen.
89 Today, a 62 year reign, wow.

Morning posters, Lurkers, and those who think we are knobs.

Freezing here. How close are you to the centre, Eddie?


She is doing very well indeed, and Prince Phillip also. I dont mean it in a horrible way, but it goes to show what could be achieved if we all had the best food, good housing, and the finest medical care, doesnt it?

Hello all


No I didn't see the tirade. Helen is sooo 2014, I think.
I didn't watch Safe House either as you say it was too dark and I believe the music was awfully oppressive.


Happy Birthday Your Majesty!!

I hope you have many many more....

She says Mark and Mathew are sleeping together behind his girlfriend's back, that Jale owes Steven money and demanded her hotel was paid for and that Steven has paid for holidays and nose jobs for some of them.


They really were a horrible bunch, werent they? I think part of the joy of BB is finding good things about people you dont take to and vice versa, but gosh it was hard to like anyone much last year.

Are we only a couple of weeks from the new series? I have lost track.

I forgot about that, happy birthday your Maj !

It was so much the Toxic Helen Show that I have forgotten who Mark and Matthew are.. I do remember the much maligned Jale though!

I think the next series must almost be upon us!

and a one two three four and flex two three four now turn

and flex

and look at the camera and pout

aaaaand thats my mark routine done for the day

now for my matthew routine of sitting in an armchair whilst stroking a white cat and scowling

Is "white cat" a euphemism?
