    And you are obviously not talking about the maternity ones from Motherca** my friend bought.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Yep - typical consultant alas. I think to be a consultant you have to pass the "Pomposity" module...

    Look stuff up on the Internet. They *really* hate that...



    "I'd rather chew my own foot off and serve it as a meal with turnips grown between the breasts of Bavarian Nuns...."

    I always do look stuff up, and i know they hate it. I find the American, Philadelphia hospital, is way ahead in procedures than the UK. Although when she was younger she was under Dr. Bianci, who separated the Siamese twins. Some are more progressive than others.
    I love the last quote-would that be a Blackadder one by any chance? Just about sums up how i feel.:rotfl: :rotfl:
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

    No, I just made it up - but with a bit of a wink at Blackadder...

    Thanks hun.

    Not at all, sorry if I seemed like I was blaming all parents, I got dragged into a conversation the other day between a couple of mothers and they were talking about medicines on dummies for sleep (when the child isn't sick) and the new article couldn't be a better thing for mothers like that.

    How did you manage to stop yourself from stabbing them in the eyes with a rusty spoon ;)

    Glad you said that too Bob, because I thought it was Blackadder too! My fave sitcom off all time and also why I called myself QueenBess, because of how great Miranda Richardson is! And because strangely enough I do have the heart and stomach of a concrete elephant!! ha ha! Might have to get the DVDs out soon and have a giggle!
