Yawn ... wakey, wakey ...

It's trying to rain here, occasional flurries; not a day for going far, except the afternoon hospital run.

Just tried to get through to Joyce on the "Patientline" bedside phone, what a rip off, 39 or 49 pence per minute depending on the time you call! plus they start each call with about a minutes worth of commercials before trying to connect you, stuff that for a game of soldiers, or as we used to say "I don't mind a joke but **** a pantomime."

Add that to the further rip off car parking charges and bedside TV and hospital starts to get a bit expensive, especially if you're on a pension!.

 

Shiney, I've told you MILLIONS of times not to exaggerate .......... :rolleyes:

 

Oh Mike, don't curb his enthusiasm he only exaggerated a little bit and that was about the 25 hours and then he was confused because it seemed like that long.......

 

Sorry, how remiss of me!

 

Good moaning everyone.

Heh,heh..methinks someone is entering the realms of fantasy here. (can you tell I was and still am a Dad's Army fan)

Good Morning to you Woo...we haven't met as I'm a newbie, so nice to meet you.:thumb:

Mike, mobile phones are cheaper. those hospital phones are a rip off as you say..I don't know how they get away with it. Here in Wales in our county, Ceredigion the hospital parking is now free...might be the same all over Wales but I don't know offhand. However this does bring it's own set of problems. People are parking there all day who aren't even visiting the hospital?? So now it's even harder to find a place to park. Even the disabled spaces are taken by none disabled drivers...and seeing as there are now no patrols....it's all gone downhill.

Anyway, have a nice day everyone, glad your water is sorted Kandy.

 

Erm.

No better not...comment I mean, heh,heh

 

I have to admit I had a little chuckle at Mike's "I have told you a MILLION times not to exaggerate" Pot, Kettle, Pot..........ha ha ha! I do love the sense of humour to be found on these threads it sees me through each day. Thank you all.

 

Hee hee, think you mean seriously deadly don't you?:D:D

 

Or seriously dead even?

I love spoonerisms and malapropisms or any play on words come to that (very punny)

I think the phrase I have most fun with is

Bearing up under the strain ................ or ........... straining up under the bear ............. or even............... staring up under the brain

Or how about ................ the feather warcast ............ ( would that refer to down fall ?)

or ................. under the affluence of incohol ( I'm not as drunk as some thinkle peep I am)

the parents .............. dum and mad?

I could go on ................ and on .............................. and on ................................

 

Woo beat me up this morning (in a getting up early sort of way) Keep trying to get mrs Walnut to do those late night shopping trips Shiney but no chance I have to suffer and get dragged along on Saturday morning still at least Ican get a ride in afore she gets up,catch up later,take care everyone.:thumb:

 

Good morning to those of you that can't sleep and to everyone else when they wake up:D

Shiney I do hope you are not going to mow the lawns until your neighbours get up.If I went out mowing at some ungodly hour I would be carted off to the nearest cells and i would be the talk of the village:D

They reckon that the time you went shopping is the best time to go because everyhting gets reduced down to silly prices,but when we went at 7.30pm the other week to get the flour for our bread maker there was hardly anything on the shelves:eek:
Good Luck with the impromptu dinner party:thumb:

By the way I have passed on the message to Mr Kandy about the NT carparks and the one that is no longer free.He was thinking of doing that walk as well.We will have to get plenty of use out of the membership the price we had to pay and to top it all there isn't many if any NT properties around here:rolleyes:

Walnut,Mr Kandy is lucky I hardly ever drag him round the shops.I prefer to leave him at home and go myself.He gets too bored if I take him unless it is anything to do with DIY stuff or cars,then he is out the door before me:eek:

Enjoy your day everyone in all that you do
