    I met that Warwick Davis and his family a couple of months ago.

    I was totally taken aback by how small they all are.


    I mean, I know that they're dwarfs n'arl but, **** me, they're tiny.

    After almost four months of having Christmas rammed down our necks by numerous marketing agencies we have now got to endure only one more week after which we will be virtually Christmas free for eight months.

    Spent four hours in Hull Royal today. Not for me I hasten to add, I'm like a Greek ****ing god, I'm that healthy. Don't even need an inhaler is how fit I am.
    Spent a few hours talking, chatting up, to some dedicated nurses who'll be working over Christmas, Boxing Day and all of it. It never shuts.
    Heartfelt gratitude.
    My suggestion of going back to Barbara Windsor type uniforms was met with hostility mind. Meh

    On the back of this do we think that the Carry On films are now so un PC and will be banished to the cellars of TV companies.

    Christmas without a Carry On film is like haddock and chips without curry sauce.

    I spent four hours in there a fortnight ago today, it was very busy and many of those there waiting for treatment were a disgrace. When I was ready to come home I waited in the main foyer, unbelievably a woman sat down and lit a cigarette!

    Nobody should have to work at Christmas. According to our former resident anarchist, Spook.

    First year my wife won't be working Christmas Day for 7 years and I am that off it can't even face having a drink. Typical.

    As a regular in hospital the attitude of far too many is a disgrace. I couldn't put up with it if I was working there.

    Agreed.
    All some do is moan about the nhs.
    When I was in Turkey I was talking to a woman that worked in the hotel.
    She said a big part of her and her husband' wages went on medical care insurance.
    That would give some of these twats something to moan about.

    I just reckoned that with all the arse grabbing and double entendres that they would be deemed unacceptable in these PC mad times. Personally I think they're good old end of the pier entertainment.

    Just about become a resident at the James Cook in Boro, what a great place and team.
    Unfortunately it's got worse and he has full open heart tomorrow.
