Glad you are ok Liam. I do think you bounce better when you are younger.
If that was your drinking arm, you could have died of thirst !

It was, and yes that did suffer.
But the pain killers were quite good.


I could bend my elbow, just not lift the weight of my arm. Not great as I had a 6 month old who wanted carrying everywhere, and a 2 year old who wanted everything else.

Get Easter out of the way and then we can all stock up on Hallowe'en masks and fireworks. I expect lots of you to have done your Christmas shopping by now.

Daughters birthday. What a crap day to have it. Cannot do anything as the country is blocking every restaurant etc. with loving couples.

20 Years ago we took her away to celebrate her becoming a teenager,as we checked into the hotel we asked for a table in the restaurant for 7:30 and got.....Sorry the restaurant is fully booked, it is valentines day! What even for residents? yes you should have booked earlier! I think if you check, we booked these two rooms 6 months ago. Sorry the best we can do is a bar snack. Great customer service at Hilton Hotels (not)

So you're pink, plucked, naked, wrapped in plastic and left on the shelf?

I think he said he felt like the last chicken, not looked like it.
