Could you see your reflection in the mirror derek?
Yes & the mirror didn’t break.
it must have been very frustrating and worrying for you, but they do have to be careful when it comes to CovidA bit of drama here last night/today, little un got a headache, started throwing up & went sensitive to light about half five, did the 111 thing which took ages due to all the bo***cks about corvid on the recorded messages, 2 & half hours later while still waiting for a call back with her getting worse I had to do 999
Ambulance crew were brilliant & after assessment off we went to hospital, all good you would think but none of the local hospitals ER's would accept her so we ended up at Birmingham childeren's hospital feckin miles away
3 n half hours right by the door in a brightly lit kids waiting room, fooking freezing as some asshat of a greeter kept walking in front of it & setting off the sensor (I had to tell him in the end) later we moved as seats became available away from the door & were told we couldn't do that die to corvid etc etc (too fecking late fella)
The place was full poor little jonnies with a sore toe, and me trying to hold her up look after her with 0 help from staff, even when i asked if they could find her a trolly to lay on i was ignored, we were later moved to a side room, by this time her biggest problem was the light so I turned it off & she started nodding off, next up some prick says "you cant turn the light off" .....me "just did & its staying that way" I ended up guarding the switch for feck knows how long as well as looking after her myself until the doc came
2am when we saw a doctor & at 3am we were told she was well enough to go home, fecking great, its freezing pissing with rain & we are feck knows how far from home, TAXI! & even that was hard going to sort as i didnt actually know where i was at the time couldn't find a phone where any taxi numbers are usually posted (due to corvid ffs) eventually a nice Jamaican security man helped us sort it
Lucy seems as right as rain today but we are going to have to back for more tests etc in the coming weeks, that's going to be hard work.
I am completely fooked from the nights adventures & completely pissed off 80% the nhs staff too they honestly made the night twice as hard as it needed to be
I had the opposite problem years ago, my dad really wasn't very well and so took him to the local hospital and was told we would have to wait until a couple of children had been seen to, the 'sick' children meantime were running around laughing and shouting have a great time
How is she Slim ?A bit of drama here last night/today, little un got a headache, started throwing up & went sensitive to light about half five, did the 111 thing which took ages due to all the bo***cks about corvid on the recorded messages, 2 & half hours later while still waiting for a call back with her getting worse I had to do 999

When I read the symptoms I had bad thought, but the fact she seemed to get better laid those to rest.. Could have been some sort of migraine attack

Very dangerous & not cost effective, you’re better putting the fuel in the tank via the fuel cap
This was the children's ER so it was only kids being seen there, but the same problem quite a few were obviously fine enough to play while the couple that were obviously in need of help were ignored
Staff in the waiting area were not being careful of corvid at all that I could see, the idiot at the door was constantly taking off his mask to have a drink or wearing it under his nose, this was the guy handing out fresh masks (even if you had one) he was also asking people to sanitize their hands but never did himself
The nurse in the assessment room didn't have a mask, gloves or anything else the whole time we were there & must have dealt with 20 kids as well as wandering around freely
I have to say the ambulance crew were great & the doctor once we got to see her absolutely brilliant
She seems as right as rain now thanks mate, but its a worry because of family history, this is the 3rd time of the poor sod having the same thing but at least the doc this time has sorted some tests so we are hopeful of getting to the bottom of it
Got wet.
You'd better elaborate on that at your age
Pretty much nothing.
watched three or four episodes of The Office US. Not really enjoying it now, it ran out of steam after about Series 3. But having got nearly to the end of Series 7 I’ll be darned if I’m not going to stick it out to the bitter end.
sat here watching the snow, don’t think it’s going to settle.

Haven't heard that in years.
Went to feed the horses & discovered my waterproof coat isn’t as waterproof as it used to be, luckily I had my Australian hat on to keep my hair dry.You'd better elaborate on that at your age
Erected Grandson’s bed without swearing.
