It could be that the second doctor/nurse might be correct... 50/50. I was more annoyed by the ignorance of the facts that were wrote on the notes. Just making shit up as she went along . Maybe it had been a long day for her. Edited July 7, 2017 by Rugeley Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Seeing as it's pride, in a book full of stupidity the tale of sodom and gomarroh really do seem a bit special god hated the sin so much that he sent angels to destroy the cities so badly that no one would ever be able to find them or prove that they existed... of course he did fella 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the population idolize them and half are laughing at them yet they are famous and rich in a lot of cases, is it the people pointing fingers who are wrong and out of touch? I honestly have no idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) No, it's the people idolising and enabling this shit, banal culture that are wrong and always will be wrong.

I don't either and why are you up so early ? The problem is the word " Celebrity" , in the 70's and 80's you needed talent to be classed as a celebrity. You cannot jus rok up somewhere and say " My dad is X", not good enough. In fact there was a horse that regulary appeared on TV shows in the 70's (we all know his name). I put it forward that not only did he have more talent than all these grade E celebs put together but he would be vastly more interesting than any of these words removed these days on Parkinson or the like. Muhammad Ali - A class Red Rum - A class Richard Burton - A class I would say these are in celebrity terms examples of true, interesting and talented people. I don't know what Gordie Shore is but I don't think they can eve be on the same level. People don't understand that if you watch shit programmes they will keep making more.

I am an hour ahead of you but I was up becasue of back pain. At a certain point, no matter what I should stop picking up my granddaughter. She has gone from super feather weight to dead weight in a month, it must be bone hardening or something as it's almost overnight. I can only just manage to walk up the stairs with her now. I suppose you have had this problem as well unless you are 6 foot 7 and 120 Kg's ? I feel like I have run a marathon and I only had her for 36 hours but I suppose I try and pack a few days worth of fun into a small time frame which is mistake number 1 maybe + I like the fact she is getting older but in a way it would be great if she could stay about 4 or so so do lot's and lot's. Translating and speaking dutch does not help either, after a while that is really tiring as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's getting a bit heavy to carry, but unless I've previously 'twinge-d' my back it seems OK atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
