    Was it Chamber of Secrets? Used by Madam Pomfrey to regrow Harry's arm bones when Gilderoy Lockhart tries to fix him after he is injured in Quidditch.

    Ooops - too much time reading/watching HP! :o

    See, all these Harry Potter fans :rotfl::j:rotfl::j:rotfl::j


    And definitely cutting bits off rather than sticking bits on, or even having stuff dangling _pale_ thats really not a good look :eek:

    Anyway, seminars and stuff were good. I got two hours CPD, helped out a bit beforehand, and then scooted off to Egyptology - which was hysterically funny, believe it or not. Imagine Margaret Rutherford with a Geordie accent and the comic timing of Morecame & Wise - delivering a lecture about Egyptian eroticism, complete with very, um, direct images. Really, we hardly stopped laughing :D

    Railways let me down a bit, boring delays cos of delays at East Croydon, but thats how it goes sometimes.

    I was going to go to a local Transition Towns initiative today, as its next door to mine, but turns out it was a one day affair - rats! I'm annoyed with myself for misreading that, but the clash was with the seminar that I really *had* to go to, as I'm on the committee ... I'll have to make do with emailing, but I'd have loved to go :(

    Hmmm, that gives me today at a loose end... rethink will be arriving after a cuppa coffee and some brekkie.

    However, it was more like this:

    She's not nearly as funny tho :D but it was the Turin erotica thingy that we talked about for part of the time.

    Haw haw ....

    Anyway, I must do something with my life today! Was very tempted to do an AF order, they have the 25kg sacks of gram flour in, but I'm storing a bit too much for my storecupboard :o need to actually use some of it!

    And off to get a life .... hope everyone else has a good day too.

    KC, sorry to hear about the operation. Agree with ZTD, though - easier to take things out than to stick them back on. Bravery aside (and we all know how brave you are) it may be that you should go for the general anaesthetic - today doctors are so eager to get you out of hospital that they know what they are talking about if they recommend general (local you get out faster).

    Have a good one, resist AF if you've enough in. (but you know that)
