casualty is 100 euro, i have the school insurance thingy and when i had to bring daughter to casualty- for concussion- earlier in the year i got the 100 euro back, think the school insurance costs 8 euro for the year so well worth it

Over paranoid parents, pumping their children full of sh*te with the first sign of sniffles. Dragging them to mydoc's, causality etc. Not helping an already stressed health system.

Had to take youngest to the doctor last week, she's eight and last time she was there was 2009. She thought it was a great novelty getting checked out.

one of the twins broke his arm last week playing soccer has had to have the plaster cast replaced 3 times so far. Got given out to severely in the hospital yesterday by a huge fat nurse for not stopping him from being so active. He went to the pitch Sunday after the game and broke the cast hurling. We have being in the hospital every summer for 5 yrs now with fractures and breaks

Isn't the number of children with asthma increasing being blamed on a lack of fresh air in moden houses which are too well insulated.

hmmm, Is that actually proven? I am doubtful about it...

Sure isn't indoor plumbing that the cause of the increase in crime over the last century.
Crime has gone up consistently over the last 100 years - and what else has gone up - yep, more houses getting indoor plumbing.... co-incidence... I think not...

I've 2 asthmatic children and live in a house that you can actually see the floor covering in the bathroom lift on a stormy night, so I think draughts are aplenty! House is 200+ years old! And looks every day of it.

On a similar topic: for the first 3 Christmases of my eldest girl's life we ended up in Casualty. She fell down the stairs (God knows how as she was hardly able to crawl, and the gate was in place) that was Christmas Day evening - black eyes and squished nose. Next year on Christmas Eve she plastered herself against the corner of a bookshelf - black eyes and the following year Stephen's afternoon she fell and broke her arm playing football with her grandfather.
Casualty at that time of the year is a sight to behold!

Quick question for those sending cattle to the factory.

I got the cheque this morning for 2 cows and there is a column marked Fluke and the result for both cows is nil.

Does this mean that both livers were fluke-free?

Boyfriend woke up at around 4am and ran to the window. He phoned his dad and said a tractor and low loader had gone flying into the neighbours farm (who happen to be on holidays). Out he flies,into the jeep and down the road to see what was going on. He came back 5 minutes later. Turns out it was the milk lorry! I nearly killed him for waking me up over nothing!
