Jazmee...........Quote,
Lines of communication are horribly twisted at best, and nonexistent at worst, in hospital, unquote...........how true!
Further to that, I would add that the LAST person who needs to know what is going on is the patient (in the view of the medical profession).
Should it be necessary to communicate with a patient, then they are to be spoken to and treated like a retarded moron.

Thanks for offering, Gary, but I seem to have managed it now. And he's going abroad for a month, which won't do him any harm at all!
I did get talked to as though I wasn't all there in 2010, when I spent three weeks in a geriatric ward. I couldn't really blame the staff, and I didn't get riled or anything. I just spoke calmly to them, using as many Big Hard words as I could reasonably fit in, and cheered in a restrained and adult fashion when I was discharged. Whoopee! I'm out! Yes!
I'm back from a very pleasant evening out with birthday "girl" and her daughter. We went for a meal and had two hours between finishing eating and the film starting - or the trailers and ads starting, really - which we spent solving the world's problems.
We saw the latest version of Anna Karenina, which is a stunningly beautiful film, perfectly gloriously British, and really only very slightly confusing. I also thought that Count Vronsky was very pretty, perhaps too pretty, like a girl with a false moustache. |

| Watching last night of the Proms. Sprog's watching it in the Albert Hall and I'm here at home staring at the telly. Benedetti's violin, Joseph Calleja's voice. Doesn't get any better. |

The new "Anna Karenina" film sounds intriguing.
I liked to see it when it opens 'down under"!

I've been bought off!
Debenhams have sent me a friendly letter and £15 vouchers with no expiry date.
I need to complain more often. Preferably without getting annoyed, though. |

Thanks, Gary. I'll try not to spend it all at once.
So do I find out when little-miss-waste-of-space has her day off, or do I hope she'll be there so I can tell her what I think of her? Calmly and maturely, of course! |

Well no, actually, that is not only infinitely more polite than anything I was thinking, it is also totally bloody brilliant.
"You thought you'd mess me up but you ended up getting me a free shirt."
Love it. |

pleased to be of service, Lesley. Always remember when i was16 was in asda with friends shopping having a laugh as we went round, got to till was a store detective stood there watched me pay for my shopping then accused me of shop lifting. Said to till operator can you get manager she said yes, manager came asked what problem was girl said so and so just accused this customer of stealing and he was stood watching him pay, store detective was told to go to office and wait for manager to return he apologised and gave me £20 voucher off my next shop. Shop detective was sacked saw him at a till few weeks later and said to girl make sure hes not got anything he's not paid for, like he accused me of 3 weeks back. Guy said i lost my job beacuse of you, said nope you lost it for making a false allegation the till operator stoped a supervisor who was passing and told him what occured the ex detectuve was banned from the store :)

Ridiculouser and ridiculouser. I can't put the post in a note either. I thought I'd ask admin for help, so I wrote a note to Sue943 and couldn't send it. Got another Forbidden message.
So I sent Gary a quick note, just to see if I could. It looks like it went - but was it received? |

I tried it again in the forums but the forum message system wouldn't accept it either.
So I've written to her on facebook and hope she won't be upset. |

Looks like you posted a tilde or a double comma or something, you can still send messages in quizmail here as you can still use it. Terry usually sorts it out within a day or less.

Thanks, David, but there weren't any tildes or double commas or asterisks, or inequality signs that might look like HTML. Sue said it was strange and suggested I put it in a "Contact Us" note. I'll try it tomorrow. Too tired for guessing games.

Probably unrelated, but when I clicked on the 'Team' game just now, I got a blue screen. Had to refresh, and it had already started! :(

That's the answer then - gremlins. Hope it didn't spoil your score, VM.
Right now I think the cleverest thing I can do is get some sleep. Goodnight children everywhere. :) |
