It was my birthday yesterday. An interesting day for a variety of reasons, one being that I got informed by my GP that I have a fracture in my ankle. I had a rather nasty accident about 7 years ago when I drove off a 10-15m cliff.
My ankle is usually ok but from time to time gets painful so I mentioned it to my GP when I was getting a typhoid vaccination for my India trip. She said it was almost certainly ligament damage but I had to have an X-ray before they would scan it.

Another reason for 'interesting' is that the management at work have called a general staff meeting. We are expecting redundancies to be announced. I think my department will be ok but you can never be too sure.

It's strange how some families seem to be heavily blessed with daughters. I have 2 mates who are surrounded by daughters and grand-daughters - the wife of 1 of them is one of 5 sisters and 4 of them have loads of daughters and only 2 sons and they only have grand-daughters.

Anyway, congratulations on the addition to the Woody family - I hope mother and chick are faring well!

Nice one Grandad! My brother has 3 daughters under the age of 10 and swears blind that when they turn 12 they'll be under lock and key till they're 30 <laugh>

Morning all from a wet & windy West West London...thanks in advance for the frothy.

Mrs W_Y suggested Lydia as a possible name for the little W_Y she was carrying - until I started singing the "Lydia The Tattooed Lady" song made famous by the Marx Bros (and then Kermit)...she went off the idea!

Dropped Little Miss W_Y at station this morning, on her way to cover the glamour FA Cup tie at Preston!

Blimey Lap Dog, on here again all day....

Lydia is a nice name but like some others people can spoil them - my sister wanted to call her son Mark until someone said they always think of a dirty mark - for me Lydia was associated with Lydia Dustbin.

My fourth grandchild - came in the order girl, girl boy, girl is called Sylvia and I cannot help asking my daughter who is Sylvia and Where is she? She is not very amused I think but puts it down to my senility

You can never play it entirely safe Harry. I have the same name as a high profile footballer and constantly get abuse for it. Being 20 years older than said player I cannot really blame my parents!
