Now there's an image for the KK2 calendar, Mike!

I dont think so!

Are any of the games appropriate/accessible to little kids? If we got one, I'm sure Thomas would want to play on it....some frineds have one and he sees the older kids playing and wants to play too, but they're playing Mario-something games....

Just asked Ellis - "Carnival" is fun - its like being at a fair ground - all sorts of little games on that.
The Mario olympics is fun too and bowling - theres plenty he could have fun with - Ellis is better at bowling than both Neil and I

Mike, I think that's the nicest thing anyone's said to me all day

Pete may not like it though

he doesnt know karate too does he?

 

[Dyerneeds]

I'm sure she'll be happy to oblige - just show her your scar - you know that'll work

thats it.
when all else fails... the scar never does.

Howdy Andy - how was your afternoon? Any more loonies? Are you gonna buy a bucket tomorrow and try out my theory

My afternoon went quite well...............


So sorry to hear of your troubles with Patch.........


Still trying to catch up here beofre I have to go and get ready for my doc appt.

Congrats on getting your Wii Shelley.

I know I'm missing something or someone, but please know I am thinking about everyone and wishing them, or their loved ones, well............

 

[Karen Mouse]

Thanks Shelley, I'm leaving here in a little bit to see my orthopaedic surgeon for the yearly check-up on my knees............

I picked up my x-rays, to take with me, and they don't look too good............. According to the report that was in with th ex-rays, I have bone spurs in BOTH of my knee joints. I could actually see the spurs in the x-rays myself...........

Good luck Andy - fingers crossed for you

I had a spur on my heel back since 2000 - it grew when I was pregnant with Ellis - I had cortizone injections and all sorts for the pain but it didnt do that much good.....
then, one day (In Florida actually) I tripped cos Ellis was behind me and I didnt realize and rather than step on him I tripped over and landed on the spur heel - it hurt like hell and I thought I would have to go to hospital. I wrapped it up in ice and went to bed with lots of painkillers. The next morning I woke up and ...... I was fine ... God knows what happened on the inside of my foot but I havent had any pain since - how wierd is that!

I hope it all works out for you

 

[Verandah Man]

Best wishes for your dog Mike

That was it, Robin's doggie, I hope all turns out well.............

So, explain to me how your medical system works...

When you have xrays etc at one place then go somewhere else like Andy is ... how does it work? Do they all just bill your insurance company?

What happens if you dont have insurance? - are there places these people can go for treatment? Our NHS system over here isnt great but at least its free

A lot of people now over here tend to go private if its something small and not to costly ££££, otherwise we have waiting lists up to 3 years long A lot of companies offer private medical cover as a perk of the job too... worth its weight in gold if you're looking at a 3 year waiting list. My friends hubby is only 39 and needs a hip replacement - he's still waiting on the NHS after a ytear for an initial appointment to see a specialist, however, he's just become entitled to free private medical care and has seen a specialist already, been for a review and already has his appointment for the op in 3 weeks tiem - its amazing what money can do
