    GET IN!!!!!!!!!
    In Wales that has to be some sort of trap.

    That's someone's life changing jackpot of the Welsh National Lottery. You really should hand it back. Perhaps they will give you say... 5% as a reward.


    In Wales that’s enough money to buy a manor house and land the size of Wales.

    Just about to tuck in to some Black Forest Gateaux seen as I bought it for Mrs Pinno's birthday. Say 'Happy birthday Mrs P'.

    Didn't do a lot today. Bit of tidying. Finished off fitting new radiator in the Old New Banger. She's running great. Better than me.

    I went to the Doc and she gave me some Penicillin as she thought I had a 'bit of an infection'when all the time I was feeling like this was the end and I probably needed help. A week later, I went back and she gave me some Erythromycin as she thought I had a chest infection. A week later another Doctor from the same practise came to see me and moaned about being called out at 2am 'by such a fit young man' [as he glanced at the bike].
    A week after that I went in and finally got a blood test and was diagnosed with Acute Myloid Leukaemia.
    I was probably right.

    I do not think that I have worked harder than this renovation job.

    The laziness will come later on. It's a learnt process and I will be taking tips from T47.

    Remember those days, getting to see a doc within a week? AND not only getting a quack to visit, but getting one at 2 am!!!!!

    I didn't hear you sorry. Can you speak up a little? What's that you say - what's 'pickly fot'?
    Who let you in? Are you new here? Where's your ID? Is it pill time?...

    Cheers re grandad - it's time as he is just shy of 93, but still doesn't feel right, but that is probably just the turmoil re: telling my dad

    That could be misconstrued on here.
