True, I won't bother with fire doors etc though. I hope michaels has an HMO licence. Is there a shrugging smiley?0 -

My knowledge is of one lab and almost 10 years ago (how did that happen?!) but if any samples came in improvised vessels they were discarded and another sample requested0 -

And with sensible reason. Oh, well, if I pee more than two and a half litres and fill the bottle and test is voided then they will have to send me two more.0 -

Actually I think you are right, but I'm posher than that I think.
I have a hospital for each day of the week. Some hospitals have more than one consultant in them ( can think of three of those) but that's because they also see me out of multiple hospitals . Eg. Eye guy seen me at two, as does brain, and gastro sees me at one but I need a specialised test that can only be done at another for him, which is where hormone guy is. New guy is at the new hospital where, ironically I had one of the surgeries right at the beginning of all of this. I've lost track now...any way, yes, I think there is a hospital for each day of the week .. Oh, unless you count the one they taxied my samples to on Friday!!:rotfl:
Edit: only one hospital has a beautiful piano in the foyer though. I'm so shallow, its definitely my favorite hospital because I feel like I can pretend I am in an episode of star trek or something there. Its so clean, the staff are uber smiley and nice and its stylish and swishy. The nurses seem kinder. Apart from the clean none of this makes it better, but I hate my time there less.0 -

I bet you've not even thought whether he's an HMO license, never mind hoping he has .... sniff of trouble and you'll be out of there, cash in your back pocket and onto the next one.0 -

There isn't that much competiton - on right move anyway currently only one other which is similarly priced. The agent hasn't come back to me saying they will offer my price after all so perhaps I have shot myself in the foot for the sake of 1 months rent - I guess we will see if we get anyone else. The agent didn't say I was being crazy to turn it down but then again may be we just got lucky with what we got before. We are ideal for school catchment which most other properties are not.I think....0 -

If it were me, I'd write the time the collection started and finished on the bottle, just in case it was still useful.
Would serve them right if they had to send you two more though0 -
Can most females pee accurately enough to use a coke bottle for collection?
