    I had just gone upstairs, got sorted, and had just pulled the covers back to get into bed ............. and my mobile rang - I was terrified to answer it as it was 1.10 am. It was Mr 3Dogs and he sounded very calm so I asked him if he knew what time it was, he said yes and that he'd had a shower, got ready in clean pj's & dressing gown, packed some things in a bag and didn't know whether to ring doctors or 999 :eek: :eek: His stomach was tender and very swollen above and to the side of the wound from his op:( :( I told him to ring 999 but he insisted on ringing docs as they'd told him to get back to them if pain got worse

    He rang the docs number and was redirected to out-of-hours service who said that someone would ring him back. He got a call within 5 minutes and the lady he spoke to told him to get to Doddington. He hit the roof when she told him to get a cab when he said he couldn't drive and had no-one to take him, saying he would just have to ring 999 then, but she then said 'oh no, I will get someone out to see you'. So he waited for doc to come, expecting to have to go to hospital :(:(:(:(

    Half hour later a doctor arrives and within seconds confirms that Mr 3Dogs has to go to hospital. He examined him and checked his temperature which is high. He was only there 5 minutes and that included calling the ambulance, doing his paperwork and a letter for Mr 3Dogs to give to ambulance-man. He was told it could be anything up to an hour for it to arrive, depending how busy they are, but it was ordered at 2.15 am and arrived at 3.10 am and he is now on his way to Kings Lynn Hospital :(

    I was talking lots to Mr 3Dogs on the phone and he is quite calm, knowing he has to get to hospital and that he will then be in the right place. He went off to unlock the door while waiting for the doc and there was such a clatter and he was away a while. I was getting very worried at this end but when he got back to the phone he told me he had remembered the kitchen bin needed emptied :eek: :eek: :D

    I am so so glad that I am going back home tomorrow but won't actually get home until 10.30/10.45 pm so will not be able to see Mr 3Dogs until Thursday :(

    I'm all all streeeeeeeeeeeeeetched - was that you HC :)

    Couple of peeps have said they are looking for cheap baby stuff. There is a Boots glitch on a small number of baby/childrens items where the items are half price and also on 3 for 2. In Boots terms, that means you get 3 for 1 and at the half-price amount, because they discount the third item at the 100% price. No idea if they are bargains say relative to buying in T, but may be worth a look
