Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
A couple of people asked where their recent comments had gone. All I’m saying is that comments relating to the ‘Major Whinge’ post have been ‘unapproved’ so they can’t be accessed. They *have* been safely stored tho!! 🙂 The remainder are as they were but if I’ve ‘unapproved’ one you think should be available… let … More Missing comments.
The ‘Major Whinge’ thread was getting boring so I’ve taken the post ‘offline’… pro tem. The way to ensure the situation doesn’t occur again is quite simple and involves wielding a pair of metaphorical scissors. This might upset a couple of people along the way but hard luck. We’ve enough stress from ‘without’, we don’t … More Whinge revisited.
Australia has had it’s share of hospital horror stories recently, but the death of 5 year old Mason Jones was easily on a par with ours. Despite frantic efforts by his parents to get doctors to take his infection with eColi seriously he was three times refused a house call and was in fact sent … More Sad story from Wales.
He’s working away as I write… well ok *as* I write he’s gone off to the toilet… but I’m sure he’ll be back. Seems the defrost element has stopped functioning. Let’s hope all is fixed soon! We need to stock the thing up… I need salad! 🙂 Edit: Done and done! He’s finished and gone. … More Fridge man arrives!
What has happened to the education system in Wales? I had a comment posted on the blog a short while ago that, apart from making little sense in the context of the post it responded too, was chock full of spelling and punctuation errors! I happen to know this person was born and educated in … More Education in South Wales
The youngest daughter goes ice-skating and she really loves it. Whether she’ll become a world champion is open to some doubt of course, but she’s been having lessons three times a week and making progress. Her coach is Galina Pachin, who is an international world class skater. To see a couple of the stars Galina … More The politics of ice-skating.
The wife was going to change her user name to ‘Dogsbody’ but you aren’t allowed to modify names once they’re set. I was wondering if she’d like to register with this username… I thought it was cute 🙂 We’ll see!!
So… the toe is *still* infected and looks dire (to me), however the specialist tells me it looks much as he expected it to. He also says I’ll almost certainly need another operation to ‘cauterise’ the nail to stop it regrowing since it looks like it won’t regrow onto the bed properly. The wife was … More A bit more toe stuff.
After yonks struggling along using Internet Explorer Mobile, I finally ‘bit the bullet’ and bought Opera Mobile which is US$24. Why? Functionality is why. For simple surfing… *very* simple surfing… IEM is just about adequate. For anything else it is worse than useless. Quite often it’s actually obstructive! The main selling point for Opera Mobile … More More development.
Basically I’m so tired I can hardly keep one thought following the other. I think I’ll just call it quits for now and go get the kids from school. They’ll be standing in the rain, steaming like horses, and waiting to be collected. I think I really need a good night’s sleep. To that end … More Ok I give up.
