    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    I don't know if I ever told you who dh's cousin was? Its another pressure and profile one. His other cousin was very publically disgraced, dragged through court and whats the barrister one of ''stuck off''? while dh was making applications. Also an unbelievable amount of people interviewing dh had been taught by his dad. Not good, not good at all.

    You didn't, no. For barristers, it's "disbarred" rather than "struck off the rolls", as I think solicitors are?

    That must have been fun for DH (-:

    Has anyone been watching "Angry Boys"? It's BBC something (we've watched it all on iplayer).

    It's absolutely brilliant, incredibly funny, too. The main actor is almost everyone - and anyone who can be really convincing as both of twin 18 year old boys and their Granny is one hell of an actor.

    No need to apologise, we all make mistakes - I should know, I'm an expert:D. Born in the USA was Bruce Springsteen.:)

    Before I catch up with what you've all been up to, a query for the bookworms. I'm looking for a good book on english legends (ie robin hood, !!!!!! turpin etc) so am looking for suggestions. Can be one book covering the whole gamut, or a book on each.

    How about this one jelly:

    We have copies at our library and I've seen it go out a few times though never borrowed myself.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Has anyone got a shredder?

    Advice and recommendations actively sought:)

    Yes, and it's with MIL, who uses it now & again. Affordable shredders are neither quick nor versatile, but if you only have a 'normal' garden, they're an option.

    I've just looked at the paperwork from the hospital. I've been issued with a chemotherapy diary. But the darling nurse has gone right through every page with a felt tip pen, so it now reads '[STRIKE]Chemo[/STRIKE]therapy diary', 'Your next [STRIKE]chemo[/STRIKE]therapy appointment', and so on. :)
    We could have done with a diary.... just get a card with your next appointment date on it.

    Mind you.... the chemo was self-administered at home.

    I should mention at this point... they kept the old; my replacement wasn't able to take on everything I'd been covering, so they'll get a few days practice with the well old before the ill old's delivered back... didn't want the old ending up back inside through poor levels of care from siblings :)
