I guess whenever we play you we'll be desperate for points, let's pray for your success at Wembley so you can afford to be generous to us, pretty please!

Morning all, a warm glow surrounds this piece of rural France today. A dry and sunny day also is on the cards. Big smiles still.

Morning all from a sunny but chilly Bandit Country - just starting to recover from yesterday and cannot wait for the draw tonight.
Granddaughter is now home in The Shire from GOSH, so a little normality has been restored. All your best wishes haver been very welcome - many thanks.

Nowhere like rural France on a sunny day.
Not bad here in Herts, sunny but cold wind. Just hooking up the caravan for a few days in the New Forest.
Cheshire is cool but beautiful in Spring sunshine.
It's Madame's birthday today - hence yesterday was NOT spent in Islington. But no matter - what a lovely few days. Mme even knows when the semifinal draw is to be made.
It's rather inconsiderate of the club to keep on winning in the Cup as our plans to return to La Belle France seem permanently on hold - but hey it's brilliant really!
Last year I actually bought my airline ticket to come home for the Play off final BEFORE that wonderful Sat at Brighton. Best £60 i've ever wasted!

Had to watch almost all the One Show, including a chef discussing sending tinned food into space in a rocket which cost £150 million and exploded on the way, before the Cup Draw! What a couple of days...grandchild number 3 born this afternoon! Mum and daughter doing well! Dad's an Arsenal fan too...
IF we win the F.A. cup and that is a big IF (size 7 font if in fact!!) ¿does that mean we would go into a European competition?

yesHopefully the Spring melt will revive him
Good morning all from a cold, dry Weston-super-Mare!
Have a good day!

On another note I just spent 8.5 hours with my mum in A and E in the middle of the night after another of her TIA events. I am outraged at the treatment, the inefficiencies and the lack of care for a 94 year old. I feel a letter coming on. Sure enough we saw the Dr in just under 4 hours... so they kept to their target. The dept was overflowing people everywhere. My mum's first two tests etc were both done in aisles with people all around. They lost her urine sample and they forgot to do her ECG. We eventually got the all-important CT Scan at 4.15 a.m. 8 hours after we arrived. At one point we got moved to another Dept who thought she had had her CT Scan. I had to ask everyone who passed and was told at one point the porter was having his 'lunch'. I said I would push my mum myself. Then 5 minutes later three porters came in and moved a bed..... erm......
The following morning we we were asked back to see a Stroke consultant in an other hospital and the care was beyond reproach.

Yes ditto...
Our son's partner has just told us she is pregnant... all happening up here....
Morning all from a overcast & chilly Bandit Country - it was nice and sunny earlier when I got back from the gym and now it is not so nice.
Sorry to hear about your Mum and experiences with the NHS Yorkie - that seems to the biggest issue with the NHS, the organisation is poor. The people and care is excellent, but there just seems to be a total lack of organisation. Last week, we had to wait 90 minutes for a doctor to finish off the notes for granddaughter when she was released from GOSH, yet the doctor had told my son she was being discharged 3 hours before that and when he finally finished them, he had to ask a nurse what to do with them! I know it's trivial compared to what Yorkie went through, but what could happen if that doctors fails to send a copy of her notes back to her Cardiologist?

It seems fairly common that communication between the teams is poor.... all stoop to the medic who may be a junior and frightened to ask their senior.
A lot of this could be fairly simply solved.
e.g
1) Assigned staff member who is the link person for the patient and follows up
2) Tell the patient how long things will be and what is happening
More difficult in our issue:
Sort A & E ... so that the triage system is better and the walking cut fingers and the serial worriers and the drunks all get posted appropriately
etc etc
Spot on about A&E Yorkie - I have only ever gone there when it has been absolutely necessary i.e. child with a cocktail stick through his foot - but some of the other people who go there should be told to piss off.

There were a number of drunks, druggies and odd bods all waiting.... made it a bit intimidating for others...
