Officer on the left. Is he on his iPhone?

Now I've seen it, I can't unsee it.


Dammit. One on the right is using his iPad.

Anyone watched the show "Timeless"?  Right out of it.

Well I didn't need a blood transfusion on Sunday.

Public shout out to Mrs Sunjester for acting as a taxi service to the surgery on Thursday.

Get well soon

Yeah, all the best LH!

Thirded.

Cheers - Phil

I need to, because no French skirmishers are getting coloured in while I'm light headed!

I'm sure the skirmishers can wait for a little while

Get well soon

Thank you everybody.

You really shouldn't be telling me to delay though, I don't need an excuse to avoid painting so giving me one is just bad news.

Sunjester and Orcs have heard this story.
I've had a small lesion on my tongue for a few weeks, I thought it was a cut that was slow healing. It bled on and off.

Saturday night and Sunday morning it bled so much that I passed out and had to have an ambulance and overnight in hospital.

normal haemoglobin count is 130-180, mine is normally 160.

Sunday afternoon it was 98. At 80 they transfuse.

I'm pretty sure at one point I had more saline than blood in my veins! (about 2.5 to 3 litres).

Plasma replaces at about half litre a day. Haemoglobin takes 4-6 weeks.

 

STROLL ON !! 

That sounds  particularly unpleasant.

Sincerely hope that clears up soon, LH !

Best wishes - Phil

Yowch.
Hope all clears up soon

Trust me, that wasn't the worst bit.

Was just viewing the Scottish News on the BBC website and came across the headline, "Emu on the loose after Care Home escape."

Thinking, "Right enough, Emu must be getting on now, I couldn't help but imagine the chaos that bird would cause."

But it wasn't what I thought.

Ta' , cultural context is always appreciated. 

The original article states, "Groundsman Dennis Agnew bought the bird and a female companion a couple of days ago...".
I commend Mr. Agnew on his forthright admission and surmise he was being well distracted when the bird made good its escape.

Stroll on......

I knew Rod Hull had died.....But I hadn't realised that it was THAT long ago !

I like Billy Connolly on Parkinson. He grabbed emu and said words to the effect "you fuxk me about and I'll break your neck and his arm."

My day today
Standing under the wing of an RAF Lysander at Shuttleworth, teaching 11 year olds about Morse code and how to use an Enigma machine.

Doesn't pay many bills, but I LOVE museum work.

Living the dream!

Very jealous.
