er ... I'm guessing that 'sometime between 10pm and before closing time' is the wrong answer ? :-S

oops! looks like i too am selfish and have no consideration for other people's time keeping. :))

@ Huguenot,


Well! Since your rather ungracious kicking of my backside at the beginning of the week, you will be pleased to learn that I have been on time (and, on a couple of occasions, early) for every appointment this week. As this is probably the first time in my life that this has happened, I really ought to thank you for being so instrumental in helping me to mend my selfish ways. But I aint going to, coz you iz a pain in the bum innit!





Well, OK, maybe just a little thank you: thanks.


Incidentally, Lord Muck is incredibly indebted to you! Gave me a lecture earlier today on how for years he has been nagging me about my persistent lateness only for a "stranger off the Forum" to finally get through to me...yada yada yada...

Well I do believe that is the sweetest thing you have ever said to me. Good Heavens, this Forum is truly miraculous...Huguenot sweet, Ladymuck punctual...can it last I wonder?


However, whilst I completely understand that you simply cannot wait to see me (*massive grin*), I would remind you that this will not be until December...have you not been paying attention? Hmmmm, clearly some work needed there...anyone care to kick Huguenot's backside? Duly admonished snakeoil peddlers? Reprimanded fiskers? Castigated confidence tricksters? HAL9000? :))


As for "lamping" you at the airport, I guess that eventuality will depend on your conduct between now and then, though I might just clout you for past misdeeds depending on my level of longhaul flight grumpiness...

Perhaps. But at least you will revert to prettiness by tomorrow. Whereas I will still resemble a sack of potatoes!

    • Thanks! I'll find out in a few weeks when I get the results! It was one of those disconcerting things where a disembodied voice keeps booming  at you to breathe in and hold it, then breathe normally. Apart from that it was OK, all completely painless. I imagine there will be quite a few people going from ED, though I presume it covers the whole Southwark area 
    • Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years Good to see these two jailed today for four years. There’s something deeply disturbing about people who destroy trees—any tree. Whether it’s a centuries-old landmark or a sapling in a quiet park, trees are living beings that offer beauty, shade, and life. The men who cut down the Sycamore Gap tree are a stark example of how far some people will go to lash out at something peaceful and meaningful. People who harm nature like this aren’t just destructive—they are often deeply unhappy. It takes a troubled mind to look at a tree and see something to ruin instead of something to protect.

    • What a brilliant idea. I hope it went OK, Sue. 
    • Yes, the appointments were scheduled for every ten minutes. And there is no waiting area at all this time  (sometimes for medical checks there they have a very small area inside with 3 or 4 seats). If you have come by public transport, you have to sit on the steps up to the van if you are early,  which isn't pleasant in very hot sun or pouring rain, or else wander round Asda (there's no cafe in Asda, despite it supposedly being a superstore). It's one in, one out. I don't know what happens if you are late, but I doubt they would hold up everybody who came after you in order to fit you in.  There was someone immediately before me and someone immediately after me. That's what I did in the end , so thank you for that.  I gritted my teeth and got some exercise. It wasn't as bad as I expected 😀 I did get a 37 from Nigel Road back to Goose Green on the return journey, though!
