    Newsflash: False alarm - turns out somebody didn't listen to something their partner said; R is exonerated - was not telling porkies!

    Phew; what a good job I didn't say anything before clarification arrived. :D

    Hugs, the Spanish system seems somewhat more efficient but sadly with the outcome you didn't need to fight that much!

    Good R has been honest and you can check facts, think you and PC are doing a good double act with the presence and auras! Nothing wrong with that!

    Chin up my dear

    PC's spirit feels very close today, which perhaps is why you've just read the story above.
    To those who believe such things are not possible; my apologies.
    To everyone else; PC is here with me, an almost palpable presence.

    I believe, :A perhaps he was just stopping by to make sure you're ok :A

    Am glad all is well again with R :)

    PC will help you make the right decision.

    ..Think he must have done; PC would certainly have backed away from confrontation unless absolutely forced into it.

    Not fight to ensure that somebody who's in too much agony to speak up for themselves gets pain-relief?
    Keep quiet when a supposed professional makes a truly stupid b@llsup which might have an enormous affect on someone? (How many stories are there in the press about folk who've been sent away from Doc or hospital with a fatuous false 'easy' diagnosis, sometimes many times? It could not have affected PC's outcome, but if my outburst saves another life when that young Doc thinks twice - then it was worth making a scene).

    Nope, sorry.
    His eventual outcome was immaterial at the moment when PC was being denied pain relief despite obvious need.
    The F2's current and future patients have a better chance of getting good quality treatment because he'll remember what happened when he was careless (hope he's sincerely grateful that the embarrassing incident took place at 2.30am rather than 2.30pm - when the audience would have been a hundred people rather than ten).

    Yes, am heartily relieved to discover R is not being sneaky. :)

    Cooked an extra-special delicious dinner to make up for doubting him (which he enjoyed, oblivious of the reason for the feast ;)).
    We both fell asleep in front of the telly afterwards. Which is why I'm awake now, at stupid o'clock. :o

    R's sick pay has arrived; poor chap was disappointed to discover that it's rather a lot less than 100% of his wages - guess R has never had to claim before - but it's galvanised his desire to recover quickly and get back to work!


    Summer has begun. It was hot in the sun today; skylarks and cicadas serenading by day and frogs by starry night.. :)

    Maybe to stop me making an impetuous mistake? (Which would have had the potential for a very un-ok result :o).

    The feeling that PC was here wore off while I was cooking dinner - guess he's gone back to whatever task the universe has for him. :A
    Am glad all is well again with R :)

    Thank you; so am I. :)

    Thank you HAW! :D

    Daft Dogs and I have the Nest to ourselves for the weekend; feels rather odd? quiet? yet very indulgent to be able to relax and please myself. :)

    Now if only I could get rid of this b!asted headache, I might achieve something useful.. :o

    I think what I wrote didn't read well. You obviously are offended so please accept my apology. My intention was to impart the sense that the fight SHOULD have been unnecessary and never more so than in the situation you were in. Sorry it didn't work out in reading, have a good weekend
