oooohhh yes purlease Saucy!!

I was thinking to add a phone number to the old webbie but didn't want to use the home one (don't fancy sales/customer calls at the weekend) but can;t afford to do the new line thing.... so I though about a VOIP account. I just wanted to know what to look for in a company, if anyone has any recommendations and whether its a good idea or not....

In all honesty I just use the likes of Skype and such, free and perfect if you can get your other clients to use it, otherwise it is still pretty cheap call wise if you ring a normal number

Skype is what I was just writing to recommend. There are more expensive ones, but they don't really offer anything extra, depending on what you want. The quality is usually okay if you have a normal phone, and excellent if you have VOIP phone, an...

I can't remember what I was saying. 6 - 1 Chelsea, 1 - 0 Arsenal...at least that's a bit better. Do you know what the hospital after hours just recommended? Assisted living. I'd be the youngest there, by 62 years, and its so far away.

Feels like my World is exploding.

Mambury- it's about 15 miles there for me too :-) hope the thingies are ok for both of us ( that sounds really dodgy!)

OH will be back tomorrow evening, I think. So got a while on my own yet...Just a shock. Sorry guys. I'll make a concious effort to keep my rubbish out of this thread from now on.

Puppy is giving me a cuddle, bless him. He has bad breath and keeps trying to lick my face. Bleugh.

Dont even think of not posting when you are feeling down Saucy, I'd rather you posted than just dissapear coz then we worry about you! So moan and complain as much as you want :-)

how old is the puppy?

12 next month, but you would never guess it. Everyone always thinks he is one, including vets.
He has decided that after sleeping all morning, he will run around the house barking. Tried letting him out but now he is just wet, and getting everywhere muddy as he runs around.
I love him to pieces...I don't know what I'd do without him. I've got a dead cute picture of him sleeping this morning, I'm gonna put it on my blog

Edit: I've added an About Us page to the blogger blog, with pics of him. But the cute one is still transferring onto the computer. He's so funny. He barks at hippos on the TV...

(Thank you so much)

saucy ,with the type of illness you have got as in its a long term condition .I find my patients get better help/advice if they stick with the same gp and consultant even if it means having to wait a day .

out of hours have standard answers on the computer so i would only phone them if your longstanding illness has hit an acute phase and you are requiring urgent help they can often muddle the waters .
what hospital dept are you under ,as sometimes if they have a specialist nurse i often have patients who state they felt they can explain it better and often direct the patients in the right direction .
The other things that can help are keeping a diary of how you feel on daily basis then before seeing the consultant you can highlight them red,amber and green its an easy way to tell at a glance if you have a good,bad,or terrible time since last appt
finally write any questions you have down before appt that way you wont forget anything hope this helps elly

Awww bless him- can you pm me the link to your blog coz I've lost it again :-(

Thanks Elly.
I'm under rheumatology, but not really. My consultant doesn't feel comfortable treating girls, apparantly, and so isn't treating me.
A rheumatologist nurse said she'd phone back today, but instead out of hours did...
I'll try to keep a diary.

PMed you Mabel, and just put the cute piccie on my blog. I think it's cute at least, lol.
