    Jim, you're not really screwed until you've had this thought: "That's a grand bit of string, I'll hold on to that in case I need it in the future".

    That sounds like my grandpa! He was a "collector". We were dreading clearing the shed after he passed away but in the end it was a grand day full of laughs. The stuff me and my dad found. He had multiples of everything, you know just to be sure to be sure :D And the organised chaos he had in there, you'd swear the place was inflatable. Absolutely no chance of us fitting everything in!

    When you have to walk under trees in the rain and the leaves do not offer any protection, in fact they add to the misfortune by depositing huge floods of rain directly on top of you.

    When your the only person ever to suggest something that could be done that won't be done purely because "Well if we do that for you we will have to do it for everyone else" who else is asking? No one and in all honesty do you expect anybody to be as mad as this suggestion? Except my madness. :D

    I'm a very sad pumpkinseeds today:( I had my outpatient appointment today and they prescribed a drug to take to help with infusions that I'll need. Now the good thing is that if the infusions work my life will be free of the soul destoying chronic pain that I've had for decades, so long as the treatment is working.

    The bad side of it is that so long as I'm taking the medication I'm not allowed any alcohol, possibly for years, possibly never again:eek::(:eek:

    this reminds me of that annoying article in the Irish times where the writer is trying to give up alcohol for a month. It is not that difficult. To be honest you realise the crap that people who are drunk spew at each other on a frequent basis when they are drunk.

    The pain sounds awful. Assume amputation is out of the question? :D

    I'm not a huge drinker, usually just have a few gin and tonics, heavy on the tonic, at home at weekends. I give it and junk food up for Lent every year so I know I can do it. I think it's just that thing of feeling that I might never be able to have it that kind of saddens me. Just the shock I suppose. Oh well I'll be an even cheaper date for my husband:D

    I'm on a similar drug since September Pumpkinseeds, it's hard at first (heh!) but you get used to it (I wasn't a big drinker either). I've no idea how long I'll be on it though, maybe a year or two. All in the name of keeping us healthy, it may be worth it.

    That appointment was with a referral!

    I also had a GP refuse to give me a referral letter for my daughter to get her hearing looked at. This was the scenario:
    - Went to GP as the girl had a ear problem
    - Just an inflammation, no infection
    - Got the drops needed
    - Asked for a referral so we can get her hearing tested, we always thought she had an issue with her hearing
    - The GP said he would need to examine her first
    - I say go ahead
    - He wouldn't do it now and would need another appointment
    - Why?
    - No answer

    The d*ckhead was just looking for a return visit to bleed more cash out of me.
    Her hearing is grand though, she's just selective and a cheeky little git.

    So yeah, GPs annoy me. And ladders in my tights :eek:

    Had an experience similar to that on my last visit to the doctor. Went to her with one ailment; she suggested I might go for blood tests 'sometime' - it could be
    arranged at my next visit! When I asked her why it could not be done there and then, she reluctantly agreed to do it. :(

    People who are "entitled" to everything. They know the system inside out and are able bleed every euro they can out of the state. Sitting at home all day with the heating on, watching telly and eating takeaways every night. Not earning a cent to pay for it all. All handed to them.

    The smell of dog poop in the heat. Also the stench of Jeyes fluid, it's like an assault on the sinuses.

    I've not had the pleasure of that sensory experience, yet.

    Everytime I open a window or door every b@stard fly/bee flies into the house buzzing around the place.

    Can't beat the fresh smell of silage, especially in the weather we had today! God, just thinking about it now, it's like rotting grass times a thousand! :pac:

    One of 'em flew in between my neck and my shirt collar today and I'd nearly a shìt fit trying to get my tie open to get the little bastard out. He was smaller than a horse fly, but still that same pinchy sensation! :pac:



    No, I do not scream like Flanders :o

    TV licence inspectors. When I tell you I don't have a TV don't accuse me of lying and making up laws. Wonder if he will get that search warrant.

    People who have conversations in stupid places, like the middle of a shop doorway. They never seem to hear you when you ask them to move either. Nearly did myself an injury trying to get past two idiots having a full blown bitching session half way up a narrow set of stairs in the middle of a busy area today.

    I got sunburned earlier and didn't realise it until an hour ago, now I'm itchy and scratchy. I really want to scratch my arms:(
