Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Morning all , just catching up belated birthday wishes to @Barnfred 55 , just a youngster mate , plenty of good years ahead , hope things go well for you @Ducans elbow , it looks like they got you sorted and last but not least best wishes to you too @peteblue , I’m glad they said they can sort it. I’d tell you about my bad back but you don’t want to hear about another old man and ailments

Hi folks. Today has been amazing. Two vineyard visits - with tastings and a beach visit. The first vineyard also made their own gin, vodka and limoncello - allof which are coming home with me! It's fair to say that a lot of alcohol has been consumed!

Happy birthday Fred


In the hospital I’ve been really short of breath lately, came to Emergency had a cat scan they found 2 big blood clots on my lungs, on blood thinners going to be in for a few days, as I have to be in a hospital bed for 48 hours no getting up

But I’m in the right place

Probably from the surgery and UK flights

Rest up fella. Not much you can do I guess but at least no Everton games to annoy your blood pressure.

Neighbours are in Cape Town Blue. So just a quiet celebration with a nice ribeye and Malbec. Sitting down to watch Hamnet now and maybe have a nice rum later.

I heard it was awful . Hope you had two bottles of Malbec.

Had the camera down the throat and stomach, horrible experience. It appears I’ve got ulcers in the stomach and a problem with the veins in my throat. I’ve been given medication that should clear up the ulcers and they want me to do it all again in 8 weeks to check they are sorted and have the throat issue looked at and diagnosed at a more specialist hospital. The doctor said it can all be sorted out, so no immediate panic. It’s like an episode of Emergency Ward 10 in here at the moment. Keep well everyone…….

That’s good news Pete. Hopefully you get a break with the appointments to rest up before round two.

Ireland v Israel in the Nation’s league was inevitable wasn’t it? You just knew it.

Both that and the Ratcliffe bile made the mainstream news so plenty of good old fashioned debate to be had in Irish pubs over the coming months.

First day in it seems like forever without rain and good to see it. Potential snow later though so might have to delay my Roscommon trip a little in the morning until the roads are better.

Evening everyone. Wishing better health to @peteblue , @Ducans elbow and @blueloon. The concert sounded amazing @Gwladysover and like the CQC does, I’m guessing if you go looking for problems you’ll find them anywhere. If education is anything like health it’s usually not the fault of the provider of care but a bigger issue of commissioning and silly targets. Children deserve better than the current system.
An Everton free weekend is a bit of a bonus - nothing wrecks the mood like a poor game and it is Valentine’s Day tomorrow after all. Me and Mr P are celebrating our 40th Valentine’s Day together so that’s nice. God only knows how he’s put up with me for so long .
The forecast promises snow for us tomorrow evening so I’m keeping my .
Have a great weekend everyone whatever you are up to

That’s because men suffer far more than women, manflu etc . Childbirth is a doddle compared to manflu…quickly runs and hides ……
