    Oh nooo, what a pain in the backside - have you any idea when the op will be then?

    I am sooo pleased about the tribunal. I knew you could do it babe. :j

    What was that about our dear friend BC? Where was his AE?

    Miserable Bollox should have gone in for his op today. At 5 o'clock we discovered that its cancelled due to lack of beds :mad: :mad: :mad:

    I am SO angry. Have been nattering ALL day and he didnt sleep a wink last night. Booked the time off work AT SHORT NOTICE (when I shouldn't really be off either) and they didnt even ring when they said they did :mad: :mad:


    Like you dont know ;)

    Well, we've only bloody gone and done it.

    Letter came today.

    MB (read I have :p) has WON the incapacity benefit tribunal :T :T :T

    And it was a written one (less chance of winning) which goes to show just how strong a case he had and proves what a pair of imbiciles the *Indipendent* GP and decision maker were.

    10 sodding points they gave him (you need 15) ~ the tribunal of common sense have awarded him 16.

    To be honest, I dont give one jot about the money but as far as proving that yes, being 34 and needing new hips is a bit of a disability to the monkeys who worked on his claim/case/appeal is like winning the lottery.

    I'd even like to stick one in the eye of the CAB who refused to help (and basically told us we didnt have a chance)

    Life may be a lemon but I'm not bitter :p

    OH YES:T :T Well done you:T and :mad: to the doubters..apart from op i bet MB is a happy chappie tonight..has he cracked a smile yet? My MB is actually awake...:eek: it makes a change:rotfl:

    Did you notice PC, bollock jockey..also managed to delete some of its posts:rotfl: Honestly i nearly wet myself when he said.. who is this baliliff chaser.. after resurrecting the grim spectre of its posts:rotfl:
