i think there is something in the water and you were drinking it before you posted, you want to edit that post and try and make it sound semi sensible.

i,d love to be at work at least i wouldn,t have to leave home in 30 mins to pick the missus up from luton airport. can,t wait.

im contemplating what to do with the spadetownsprogs, as spadetowngirl is away to vienna for the weekend at a hen do, it did strike me as an unusual venue for a hen do, but if you knew the hen you wouldn,t be too surprised.

get straight onto boris i say. this could be what gets him over the finishing line campaigning for the right to sit on thames side walls.

been there,seen it,done it.

piaf was good when it first opened, did a terific coq au vin rouge, but it did take a turn for the worst 4-5 years ago. i did a nostalgia trip to it on the way back from the park a few months ago, and no improvement, which is a shame because it has a great location and with a bit of tlc has tremendous potential. are you listening gordon?

not too sure it was the first time they had it, but it appeared to be a great success,so hopefully it will be on again in the near future.

because its not natural for people,esp young fit people(which i assume ltp is) to suddenly faint for no particular reason and it could be caused by any number of things eg, cardiac,neurological issues,and i would expect that if someone fainted and sought immediate treatment then they would get it. however if as i assume in ltp,s case it has happened previously, then yes while it may be indicitive of something going on, it is not an immediate problem, it needs to be looked in to, to try an establish a cause,but its not an emergency situation at that time, therefore tests would be arranged but they dont need to be immediate,and judging from ltp,s response this appears to be the case. i would also strongly suspect that ltp would have been advised that if a similar episode occurred again prior to attending for the test then they should either contact the surgery or attend a&e immediately.

thats a couple of big boys,btw did anyone see the prize-fighter show on sky last week, 8 blokes fighting on the night for 25k, few porkers among that lot, but terrific idea and a great nights entertainment. it was won by a bloke from belfast who in true rocky style wasnt the best boxer but he just kept coming forward and in the end the boxing purist dolan who was the favourite on the night just couldn,t cope.

these two irish couples decide to swap partners to spice up the old sex life. the following morning paddy wakes up stretches and turns to the partner,"jesus, that was great last night, wonder how the girls got on?"

personally i dont see what the problem as by ltp,s admission ,they have had some "fainting of late". that suggests to me that its not the first time it has happened and reading between the lines ltp appears to have held off seeking treatment and advice until it has suited them and then when they are unable to be seen and dealt with pronto suddenly its a big problem, and if thats not the case then i certainly apologise. however,im an ex a&e nurse and manys the day i spent on my triage desk dealing with similar scenarios, persons presenting with various ailments and injuries which have been going on for various periods of time and when they eventually get off their backsides to see someone about it and are told or made to wait for assessment/treatment its a big issue for them. imho the telephone consultation is by far the appropriate way to approach these situations its otherwise known as clinical assessment and prioritisation, and more or less sorts the wheat from the chaff. i suspect that if ltp had sought advice/treatment the first time it had happened they would have been dealt with very promptly.

we,ve a hedgehog, which comes into our utility room via the catflap and helps itself to any left over cat food, its now got used to us to the point where we are able to lift it and stroke it. last year it didnt turn up so we thought it was hibernating, it was, under the engine on the old fridge we have for storing beer etc.

have rod and todd got a sister?

maybe he could direct one a la emmerdale, ie engineer a plane crashing on hogwarts, and put an end to the whole thing, which is imho the biggest load of over rated crap.
