Yeah I'd noticed a week or two ago too. You'll have to shuffle up to him before the Hull game and ask him why he hasn't called or written... Not that we care because we've totally moved on and we don't need him and we're doing just fine on our own. :angry:

And good luck Fran, sure everything will be fine, although you've now instilled us with worry so if it gets to next Wednesday evening and there's no sign of you we'll all be pulling our hair out.

I've got none left! I'll pace anxiously.
 
Good luck Fran, hope it goes OK!

As for just starting Breaking Bad... I am so jealous! You're in for a hell of a ride, absolutely amazing show!
 
Think of me if I go missing after next Tuesday as I'm undergoing an angiogram. They showed me a film where they thought I'd feel better when told that the chance of a serious reaction to it was only 1 in a thousand. I'm sorry...they are great odds when buying a raffle ticket, but not when it's you on the table. Apparently very few people die either...that's all right then<laugh>

We are all concerned for you and wish you well.

I am surprised that such a sensitive soul as yourself should be expected to go to Portsm**th for such an important medical examination.

Your blood pressure and pulse rate will be through the roof FFS.

If you tell them why I am sure they can compensate for the Pompey factor.

Seriously though we are all rooting for you. <ok>
 
All the best, Fran. As with any routine journey into the world of medicine, you'll enter worried and leave bored.
 
Talking of Breaking Bad, I retired last week after working for 38 years in a chemistry lab, and one of my leaving presents was... that's right, Season One of Breaking Bad on DVD.

Are they trying to suggest a new career for me?

I also got a book titled "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die", a machine to make plectrums out of old credit cards etc., and £100 worth of Amazon vouchers. Didn't I do well?

Blimey I'd say so. 38 years of being in a stable job was the biggest present of all. Doesn't happen these days.

Amen to that. It was one of the attractions of working for the NHS in the 1970's, a job for life as opposed to high wages etc. Trouble is, after three years without a pay rise and pension contributions rising rapidly now was the time to go. The only thing I'll miss is my workmates.
