Fridays Frantic Ferritin Ferrets Frustrate Fancy French Furriers in Feverish Flights to Freedom

Morning all. Well it is albeit 3.04am. Crap sleep. Had about 4 hours. Now wide awake. Ho Hum.

Painful guts of trapped wind and farting stoma don't help. Nor does chainsaw snoring guy opposite though he does look a bit like John Hurt or an older Gary Oldman.

Laters.

  • Evening here, couple of hours of cycling a trail, was going to do longer but humongous downpour shortened it. Pleasant 18c though...

    Morning all. Visit to specialist today over ticker and BP, hopefully it's something and nothing. Sadly I suspect not, hopefully I'll get some clarity and won't be fobbed off. I hate not knowing what's going on and it's messing with my head a bit. Very windy here at the minute, mutt didn't want his walk. Catch you later.

    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Asked for toast and marmalade for breakfast today. Toast was very dry. Asked if I could have some butter or marge and they replied it was already spread. I think they must have opened the marge in the presence of the toast and quickly shut it again!

    Drier than my granny's snatch and she's been dead since '77.

    PN69 - giving us visions of the nurses is good, giving visions of your granny’s kebab, not so good…… 😂

    hounds walked and a gentle run as I’m racing’s tomorrow (really helping some friends with a longer distance).

    work snizzle, swim and pub later, as long as I sort my kit for tomorrow

    I think 'Jeremy' the A'ien has already done that...

    Morning Folks,

    Dropped car off for its service and MOT first thing. They gave me a Toyota Verso courtesy car which is such a lump of shyte that makes me extra glad that I've got The Panzer.

    Anyhoo, better do some work then take my latest sale to the post office.

    I fancy a cider or two tonight.

    Know what? That they actually spread marge on the toast? I might be wrong about Granny. She's buried in Caerleon so there is a lot of rain there.

    PN wanting good food in an NHS establishment... has the boy not learnt anything?

    Windy as fook. Yesterday saw some chainsaw action - sawed up the Silver Birch that had come down due to Eowyn. Tidied up. All that activity in my frail state lead to bed at 10.30 and bar a mouse catching incident at 2.27am + piddle, didn't wake up till 9.30am.

    I tell you what we don't have enough pics of and the is the Kiwi jolly Vinceannsummersrockybits.

    BooHoo. Fentanyl gone! Oramorph instead. Not quite the same hit.

    Also not seen cute nurses for a while. I think the shift rota is different on Thurs/Friday.

    On plus side only have body cavity drain as not quite so cute different Asian nurse also whipped out my catheter. At least I can be mobile now!

    Maybe there were no cute nurses you might have just imagined them in your drugged up state.

    Afternoon.

    Warm and very windy here today. A bit of a slow start as I went to the pub last night but managed to do some climbing and a few dead hangs. Now waiting for Mrs W to get home from her blind making course.

    What does she do? Poke them in the eye with a sharp stick?

    It was one of my dad's jokes:

    Q: How do you make a Maltese Cross

    A: Kick him in his shins.

    Q: How do you make a Venetian Blind?

    A: Poke his eyes out.

    Q. How do you make a Swiss roll?

    A. Push him off an Alp.

    Q. How do you make a German bight?

    A. Poke him with a cattle prod.

    Q. How do you make a frog march?

    A. Call out, "Im Geschwindschritt - marsch!"

    Dammit! This ward is getting worse! 1st they take away my Fentanyl with promises of Oramorph and that was this morning. Still no sign of oramorph and pain team gone home for weekend! My belly has inflated like a beach ball and is hugely painful. Not passed a 'motion' since Sunday night. I'm just wondering where all this hospital food is going to go? The Stoma bags are not big. My belly is like Fat Bastard or the StarShip Enterprise with Scotty & Captain Kirk "she's ganna blow Captain! She can't take much more of this!"

    I expect the window to my left is not going to be transparent very soon.
