    Why the fook are hospitals boiling hot? I'm melting away here like a waxwork dummy! :mad:


    (my wife had her gall bladder out yesterday, collecting her this morning - keyhole surgery, amazing what you can do with a small prick :p)

    "Just a little prick with a needle, sir!" "Ah, don't be so down on yourself, some of my best friends are doctors!" :D

    ONJ Hope your wife is on the mend. It's the disinfect smell of hospitals I hate that combined with the heat would make any one feel ill

    I just think parents need to accept some responsibility for the safety of their kids. And motorists need to drive carefully so as not to run over kids. But they're unpredictable, they can dart out at the very last second. And you're right when you say no use blaming anyone then. If a child is too small to understand, then don't let them onto the road.

    And I don't know how parents expect to reach kids how to cross the road safely judging by the imbicles I see at the school I pass each morning. Two pedestrian crossings. You think they're used? Naw. Double park, grab the child's hand and run across the road in front of moving traffic and merging traffic. The love of my life is two. Obviously can't tell Her lefts from her rights, and I'm not her mammy but anytime I have her, we stop on the path, look out for cars, ask her if she sees a car, and then cross. We do it in carparks, in her estate. When she's in her buggy. I feel like an absolute simpleton standing there where there's no cars, but I'm hoping that if she ever does get outside without someone with her, that she'll at least remember to stop before darting across, which would give a driver an extra few seconds to see her and stop.

    ^ I still have a Judge from Wanderly Wagon Safe Cross Code badge from 1984!
    :D

    Things were simpler then. No-one driving those god awful SUV yokes that small children don't stand a chance against. Back then the risks mainly related to being hit by flying rusty chunks falling off cars passing you by, or being poked in the eye by a coat hanger aerial. :pac:

    Damn straight. And don't talk to me about the obstruction those ridiculous, oversized 4x4 yokes present when one is directly in front of you on a narrow/suburban road, and when one of them is beside you at a junction turning right. And most of the stupid things have a bigger shíte-fit than the driver if they put a wheel into a puddle, off-road me hole! :pac:

    When the maths lecturer decides to move onto new material now, and there's an exam at 6 :mad:
    2 hours to cram this new stuff!

    On the train there's people standing while an aul one pretends to be asleep while keeping her bag next to her. What the **** is wrong with people?? It's the same generation that gives out about our generation. Get up ta ****.

    Should've poked her with a stick. :D

    Hope she's feeling better and home soon. I was at an outpatient appointment the other day and I felt ill when I got out. The heat and humidity is unreal. By the time I got home I'd a sore throat and thumping headache, the places are a breeding ground for bacteria. It's a shame they don't have windows that open.

    Hope all went well yesterday Pumpkinseeds.

    The stop light on the Traffic Lights which uses an arrow.

    Instead of just a Red light as we're used to.

    Keep it simple stupid. Gormless drivers (i.e. Me) might think the arrow means go.

    I hate that pre-gym feeling of dread and generally not wanting to go but knowing I have to.

    Being interrupted in the middle of a yawn or stretch or just before a sneeze so that you lose it. F.uckers. Plus, you know how if you feel yourself losing a sneeze you can often get it back by staring, unblinking at a bright light? Well it really annoys me that the oH freaks out at me every time I do this, and I end up losing my sneeze. She knows we have a presence in our house and she's totally freaked out by it. Whenever she sees me staring up at the light she gets all panicked and says, "What, what do you see?! Do you see something?!" and I try to reassure her that I am trying to regain my sneeze but that gets f.ucking lost in translation doesn't it and she keeps on, "do you see her?! Is she on the ceiling?? Tell me!!" and then the f.ucking moment has passed and the sneeze disappears. The rage I feel for her at that moment in time is so inexplicable that I nearly want to tell her the aul wan is hanging from the skylinght baying for her blood...
