I so nearly blogged in fury the other night. Instead I sat and shouted at the telly. Yes, CBB had me all fired up, that horrid bully, Barrymore and his childish, boorish behaviour to Jodie Marsh. OK, so I probably wouldn't want to spend too long with her but even so I felt that he was way out of line. Repetitive shouting would have made me thump him one, I would have been very likely to shout back something that included the words 'swimming pool', 'coward', 'freak' but not Jodie, somehow she remained almost calm, I take my hat off to her for that. Another thing, when Barrymore, George and Pete (who is he?) were sitting discussing tactics regarding the nominations why didn't BB call them to the diary room, the programme couldn't be a fix, could it?
Visited my 'needy' lady today. Should I be worried that her husband had a full size, professional video camera set up in the room? I couldn't see any lights on it, perhaps he's just very proud of it. Anyway, a sort of informal arrangement has been made, I visit alternate days, in between she goes into the hospital. I really put the wind up the Registrar this evening when I went back onto Labour Ward and was relaying her latest physical complaint. I phrased it in such a way that it seemed as if the outcome of my advise to her was to come back in, the Reg leaped out of the sitting-room pleading ' No, no, please don't send her back in, I couldn't take it.' I laughed (I love winding people up!) Needy lady and her Hubby are busy putting together a formal complaint against staff in the hospital, for all I know it will include me. I have a feeling her notes will tell it all though and if the Board have any sense they will say the right things, and do nothing. Here I am assuming that the Trust Board is not peopled with bureaucratic morons so I may find myself in deep do-do's at some point in the future.
Boiler is dry, and we have water and heat.
Millie is Billy. The jury is still out on Flo.
Hubby did his back in again. Valium and Voltarol soon sorted that one.
My ?fibrositic wrist gave way again and I succeeded in scalding my forearm. X-Ray on Wednesday. I'm just worried I might drop a baby.
20six now officially have a miracle in their midst.

(15.1.06 20:04) Now tell the truth - did Mr MWM aggravate his back (AGAIN) during golf? Totally agree with you about Barrymore, Matilda and I were just discussing the same thing. Personally Jodie Marsh looks like some kind of freakish moon pixie with that nose of hers but Barrymore...well, he's starting to show some interesting unpleasant characteristics isn't he? Pete Burns was in Dead or Alive during the '80s and sang "You spin me right round baby right round like a record baby right round round round". TBH it doesn't seem to matter which way you spin him round though... Everybody say "freak"... |

(16.1.06 11:35) You have a lot of faith in your trust board... My (obviously limited lol)experience is that they write back defensive "we couyld never possibly do anything wrong" letters which wind up the original complainants so they complain agian but involve more lawyers and things go further and further till they are settled out of court to avoid any nastiness... Hmmm. Hope your lady and her other half write a clearly nutty letter - it sounds as though they probably will... |

(16.1.06 16:04) IanB - Officially he did his back in bending to get a mug out of the cupboard, although when SIL was recruited to help with loading materials he did let slip that the trouble began whilst they were playing golf. geepeemum - That was very much a 'tongue in cheek' remark as when I had a run in with the Board about a personal matter a couple of years ago they were clearly talking out of their rear ends. |

(16.1.06 18:20) Thought it might be. Funny how managers don't usually seem that good at managing..... |
