Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

NHS nurses are my happy thought. In the last year Ive had...

tilt table test
echo-cardiogram
x-rays
MRI scan
so many blood tests Ive lost count
24hr ecg's/blood pressure
a weeks stay in hospital

and the only positive thing for me has been the nurses. Yes theres the uniforms which does help but in all my visits Ive always been impressed with the nurses. Even the nowty one who didnt like me vanishing from the ward for a fag. Always have a laugh with them, shame the doctors are too up their own arses to actually listen to what you have to say. Why do they ask you a question but then but in with their version of the answer?!

Big up to the nurses out there especially Andrea at Preston Hospitals MRI unit After the year I've had I can understand people complaining about how nurses are paid/treated

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

In contrast to my post in the 'other' thread..the car is OK.

Seems it was my OH's fault because he moved our car forward three feet yesterday and didn't let the fuel injected engine run for long enough and the result was it was flooded this morning.All it needed was a hard foot on the accelerator to sort the issue out.

Had a chat with the chap about stupid mistakes and learned that the RAC vans are now set up to drain fuel from car tanks that have been contaminated by the wrong fuel.Apparently he has been getting 3-4 such situations a week.

He also showed me a special cap invented by one of their roadmen and financed and sold by the RAC which fits over a diesel cap and prevents petrol being put into the fuel tank by mistake.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

A couple of happy thoughts.....

My new work laptop arrived today - Tosh R700 i5 portable - Shiny!!!!!

And a big up to dohertwhy for pointing out about the triple XL package - I rang retentions about this (I currently have XL TV and Phone, and L BB, V+ and additional V box); they have upped me to the Triple XL with current V+ and additional V box, for £7.50 less than I am paying now (and they are sending me out a new free modem as my current one isn't optimal for 20Mb).

I am in a new 12 month contract, but I don't care - result!

Just got home and ran a speed test - excellent (and this is on the old modem).
