    Hester - document everything you can and when she says something inappropriate ask her to repeat it 'just so you know what's she's saying' especially if its someone else's hearing! I rather think there's a streak of green running through her as her management skills are not up to much.
    Hugs as having to deal with this sort of situation on a daily basis is draining to say the least.

    Blimey Hester! As stated get a file and start writing EVERYTHING down - frankly at this rate YOU will be off with stress from work (and recovering nicely at home - humph to her)

    Mar great news about the meds increasing (I wish you didn't need them but as you do having the right dose is good!)

    WCS hope you get the jab sorted!

    Monna - I have Entertaining with Cranks on my desk as I type :p, if you want the nut roast recipe I can type it up and PM it to you (or put it on here)
    Must use my stash up!

    Hester I am absolutely furious on your behalf! Of all the bl**dy cheek :mad:

    Mardatha I'm so glad the heifer has come up trumps :j hopefully you'll soon be feeling a lot better!

    burtha ((HUGS)), you sound much too busy! Sorry the hospital is messing you around :(

    I had a gynae appointment this morning with a lovely female doc to ask for an op I need; my answer to one of her questions prompted an instant pelvic ultrasound scan, and she then left the office for a while to ring round and see who could offer me the earliest date for an urgent (and quite unexpected from my point of view :eek:) hysteroscopy (i.e. so they can have a look with a camera.). So that's going to be happening next Friday.

    I'm glad whatever it is is going to be checked out, but it's a bit of an unpleasant surprise! Still, once it's sorted I can have the op I originally went to ask her for.

    This recipe sounds easy and delicious. What do you eat lemon curd with?

    Hester, what a turd that woman is!

    I'm glad your medicine has been increased to the correct dosage Mar. It's good that Dr. Moo is finally getting a grip!

    Fingers crossed that all is well Ivy. Prayers said.
    Overprepare, then go with the flow.

    :rotfl: I remember my brother and I getting caught 'stealing' lemoncurd by the spoonful when we were little :p

    Mila - we like to eat it with meringues, on toast, with ice cream - it's yummy and an easy use up for leftover citrus fruit, I made lime Curd last weekend :D

    Milla Lemon curd is a delicious ingredient for anything you wish to have the flavour of lemons without the tartness. Mainly for sweet things. You can use it like jelly on bread or toast. The most popular thing to use it for in in little tarts, we cut circles of uncooked pastry and put them in a patty tin. I expect you could use a cupcake tin. Bake them in a hot oven until the pastry is cooked about 10 to 15 minutes.

    Hester if you did not need the job I would tell that women where to go.

    Mar how wonderful hope you are feeling much better very soon. Glad the heifer has turned out good.

    Dam I will have to post this and then look on the previous page!

    Burtha breath.

    Polly get well soon.

    I have forgotten again, so hugs for everyone.

    I am missing my constant hugs and kisses from DGS. He wanted me to stay. I expect he said the same to to his other grandparents. He has 4 grandmas and 3 grandads plus a great-grandma. Be a bit over crowded in their flat.
