  • Up Front: I Love it When a Plan Comes Together,

    Thank you for reminding me I need to Sky+ that.

    I have a secret stash of bandwidth set aside. And some days I won't be leaving the house or something. Four in four days, wtf?

  • Up Front: I Love it When a Plan Comes Together,

    I thought we were still bickering about whether the homosexual agenda would be bound in hot pink tulle, butch lesbotic lavender leather or an all-inclusive rainbow melange that would char-grill retinas at a hundred paces?

    Print on Demand. Mine is black leather and bound with o-rings.

    If he's going to be anyone's Minister he's going to be mine.

    Fortunately, I believe the effect of the man would be so wide-spread it doesn't really matter which country he's officially working for. I'm hoping they cast him as Captain America, that would be fabulous .

    Wait, he did what to the Pope? Does god know about this?

    I LOLed, quite hard. I'm going to Hell.

    Then I thought, St Pauls? A whole Cathedral? Ow.

    I've had a soft spot for Yes since I saw Rick Wakeman on some Channel 4 quiz show about music.

    Never Mind the Buzzcocks. Recommended.

    I go with "somebody put my left testicle in a vice" because that's exactly what it felt like.

    Erm... no, wait, I'm not going to ask.

    My genitals are a root AND a destination...

    LOLed. And then my brain yelled 'hey Jo, got root?'

    although, unlike me, Bob will hopefully retain his good looks into adulthood (a kind-hearted comment, though, Emma).

    Self-criticism is always the best sort.

    Hey, you should see (snerk) how much better looking I've got since my eyesight started going.

    my dad had the 'stones and I remember graphically how much pain he was in before they were removed

    "Mick! Stop that!"

    I think your reaction to the catheter - as in 'get the damn thing out' - is quite common for guys.

    The most pain I experienced with the birth of my first was having a catheter inserted afterwards. I did get very angry and aggressive about it, and even angrier when they tried to force me to take pethedeine for it. I guess it's the indignity that makes people so angry.

    It's more that Bob is 'specially handsome.

    And, we have established, looks like David. I'm just sayin'

    I've also had the odd, clear moment of being in no pain at all. It has brought home to me that for most of the year I was carrying around low-level pain without even thinking about it

    This, yeah. It's freaky how much chronic pain can become such a part of your life that you cease to notice it as pain. Just every now and then you get a day when you think 'man I feel good, why do I feel so good, what's wrong?'. You stop noticing that it hurts, or how energy-sapping it is being in constant pain.

    Other people's medical dramas do become legitimate entertainment, being the only entertainment available.
