Well guy's I'm in the wars again!

:( just when i thought I was getting better!

Went to A&E with stomach pains I was expecting them to say I'd pulled a muscle.

they took blood and found my liver is doing very strange things, it's way too big, and shoving my organs about (causing pain) they said it might be due to the anaesthetic at my recent op, or Gall stones! :yikes:

Still in pain today (though not as bad) can't breath very well,
My pee is like Tizer and I'm slowly turning yellow, I'll look like Homer Simpson soon! :rolleyes: (it' being sorted though)

By the way, nice stew-casserole last week!

shame I couldn't stay,
looking forward to next time!

First of all, my stew was lets say more sophisticated and balanced!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Secondly, I have to go to a medical appointment on 20th late in afternoon but ok for the 19/20th just have to be gone by 1ish to get ready, so do we go for the Mon/Tues then.

Guys let us know, either I am going or not it is so much easier,

So far

Guess what? I've just been for a ride on the Harley looking for wooded areas :). Went to the local off road motocross stunt and race track and asked who owned the woods further up the road to WashBrooke Farm in Doddington (just passed the hospital). It transpired that the old feller that owns the tracks owns the woods :35:. He can't see a problem with overnight camping there as the local reenactment society :grouphug: camp out there :camping: and have there open fire cooking going (in containers):campfire:.
I've got to go and see him in a fortnight when he's less busy but looks promising ;).
Coords etc

OOO!, whittler kev? anything you want to tell us? lol (I've done that before! lol)

My brother may be finding me some interesting bits of wood to play with (he's part carpenter part teacher training).
probably only off cuts but nice of him though.
he said he might give me some of the stuff people use instead of mahogany, an a few other unusual bits.

Signing on in wisbech, you poor b@stard. Ive done that a couple of times over the last 10 years or so. Each time it got worse and worse. Now there are so many out of work the place is packed and has an air of desperation/dependancy which I suppose most JC's have but its got a lot worse than it had been.

Don't expect them to find you a job. They are there just to process benefits. I had to do volunteer work and apply for hundreds of jobs and go for tens of interviews before I got something. It was my volunteer work that got me the position. The business degree I am still paying for is worthless.
