embellina Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Right! While I'm thinking of what I actually want to say. I use to say "I'm not being funny" a lot, but it's amazing what watching Charlie from Big Brother can do for stopping a habit like that.

buggie Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 have a really bad jim bowen-esk affliction, where by at work when ambulance crews/parents/colleagues are telling me what the injury/illness is with the child they're with or looking after I seem to say "ok, great" or even worse "super" - think its more that my brain's whirring and working out what needs doing and the "super" comes because I know exactly what I need to do.In a similar vein yesterday I went "wha-hey" when the Dr said a child had got a broken arm as I'd correctly spotted the injury and ordered the x-ray before he'd seen them. As I'd told the mum initally I'd thought it was broken and why, she wasn't too upset to see me "wha-hey-ing"!
