There's a lot going around here at the mo, Timba, very similar; hard to shake. Getting to the point where the kids are being classed as potential biological weapons every time they visit anyone else.

Hope the doc does the job for you.

What is a VA doc? Sounds scary.

Isn't Virginia rather a long way from Minnesota...?


(I did wonder if you were going to see a vet, but a tree surgeon would make more sense.)

Re: Last Post in This Thread Wins!

VA= Veteran's Administration, providing medical to elligible vets. The closest we come to a decently run medical program, underfunded of course but my experience has been really solid. When we needed a drug program for Medicare if they had simply opened the VA drug system to Medicare beneficiaries would have solved the whole problem. Couldn't do that of course because it did not siphon enough money to the pharmaceutical companies and the geniuses in Washington could not have that, after all who would pay for their next campaign. Okay, getting off soapbox now. That felt good. I would not want my enemies here in the thread to know just how much I appreciate them so I will just keep that thought to myself.

I would, classified info that which could be used against you.

Makes us stop moaning about the NHS, ok it has its moments, but Holly as you know had her accident and she was seen within 2 hours for it, has had dental treatment for her mouth, and is going up to the fracture clinic for a final check and to remove her splint tomorrow; all free (well, ok, I pay my tax and NI to cover it) but at the point of service we don't have to find it.

Re: Last Post in This Thread Wins!

I thought I might nick over to the science thread; they're bound to have some ideas for something much more sophisticated. Then, I changed my mind, and decided to stay. In case someone goes beyond the pale and tries to keep me out.
