While getting quotes for Car Insurance i needed my drivers licence details, couldn't find the damn thing anywhere at first, eventually found it in the car glove box after ripping the house apart searching for it! The last thing i wanted to do was pay £20 for a replacement.

Another moan is Aviva are forcing me to phone them up to cancel my automatic yearly renewal as they won't let me click a button online to do it!

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

That's common, after all it could be someone doing it by accident online or maliciously. Calling up, whilst a PITA, adds protection as nobody can do anything maliciously.

Over the years I have taken many lethal medications, still here to tell the tale.
Rat poison (Warfarin) which I had after major heart surgery 30yrs ago, I know it kills rodents but in a regulated dose I thins the blood!
Those PPIs (Omeprazole) I take for stomach problems.
I would weigh up, possible have a chat with your doc, the chances of you taking something which could shorten/impare your life.
As quoted above by Hugh, weigh up the choices of not taking a particular medication and what your lifestyle would be like!
Hope you get things sorted out, more so in your mind.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Feel better after reading the full story, Will have a word with my Doctor when I see him in a few weeks, Thanks Esomeprazole is something I need to take for the build up of acid,

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yes l take them as well but after reading the full piece l don't really have much concern about continuing to take them.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Van drivers that sit far to close. This morning a driver decided to do that to myself and being on country roads it is not a good idea with deer, badgers etc that can appear at any moment. I tried everything for them to back off. 1st with a gentle touch of the brakes for the briefest of moments to finally for the last few miles of my journey before I hit the town in where I live sitting at 15-20 mile per hour to which he was not amused at all may I say, as the flashing lights gave that away then the main beam went on and stayed on for the last few miles of my journey. I usually pull in and let drivers who are in a hurry or works vehicles past but this guy just annoyed me so much with his choice of driving I decided to make the last leg of my journey a slow and steady one where I never had the chance to go above 20 mph ;) I don't think they were amused at all as I received a very nice toot of the horn and the famous two finger salute when I turned into my estate along with the continuous use of his main bean for the last few miles of my journey. I'm not really a nasty person but I do hope I made him late for where ever he was in such a rush to be :D Good day to you to sir I thought as I casually went in my home and had my morning cuppa.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

People like him deserve to have their licences taken away from them. I hope he was late for wherever he had to be.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

That's exactly what my hubby said when I phoned him Mark among other wording that I could not possibly write on a public forum.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Sadly there are as many bad drivers out there as there are good drivers.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I thought ALL OTHER drivers are bad or just not as good as self.

(Actually not a bad attitude to have in part, assume the other drivers are fools who are about to do something silly and adjust your driving so you can avoid their silliness. It may not be that silly, they could see something you can't for example.)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I must admit I do not usually react like that on the road, I would never have did that if my children were in the car but I was on my own as so was the other driver. I think we annoyed each other equally this morning 1 with me holding him up by sticking to the speed limit and 2 with him sitting bumper to bumper I swear he must have been so close he was basically on the verge of touching my car, well not once I pressed the brakes slightly then he slightly held back but was still to close to my car for the road conditions IMO.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Practice Defensive driving Always give yourself an out.

In our town we have TWD's. (Typical Worthing Drivers) With the high proportion of the towns population being elderly and often driving on whilst confused or suffering dementia they can and will do just about anything.

I've seen them take the "short cut" on a roundabout instead of going 3/4 round. Indicate left and turn right. Go all the way round the outside of a two lane roundabout. Block the outside lane on a dual carriageway for miles because they eventually want to turn right but won't/can't drive fast enough to avoid getting boxed in and going down an OFF ramp straight into the oncoming traffic.

You name it I've seen it.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Ouchhhh!!!

Damaged one of my finger nails last year when I was trying to pull a large metal staple from a piece of wood and wound up with another staple sliding down the side of the nail and revealing some of the nail bed protruding out from the side of the nail. Over the next few days this became swollen, very red and excruciatingly painful to the touch. It was a couple of weeks before it all calmed down and in the meantime I lost count of how many times I knocked it and yelped in agony.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Well most of the tooth has gone but are referring me to the hospital as couldn't quite get it all out. Prescribed some antibiotics as there was a bit of an infection and amoxycillin doesn't agree with me so that'll be fun. Only the second time I've had an injection at the dentist so still traumatised :shocked::

Had an update today.

They tried to remove his ventilation and his blood pressure shot up so they aborted it.

He is on a kidney dialysis machine.

But most shocking, he's on the potentially fatal version of pnemonia, Legionaries Disease:shocked:

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

The mention of Legionaries Disease brings terror to me!
Contaminated water being the cause I believe, someone not up to speed in possible air conditioner system failure?
Good luck to all concerned, hope they recover with no lasting effects.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

l really hope things work out for you TD in the next few months as there is nothing worse then uncertainty in ones life.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I know what you mean TD in regards to (Got a dunny feeling) as at my hubby's work they do not know what is happening whether that will be Tupe, redundancy or redeployment. We a okay with redeployment or redundancy but not looking forward at all if it's TUPE and like you we should here in the next few weeks I would imagine no later than April. I personally think it will be TUPE where our situation is concerned although we a praying that is not the case.

I hope things turn out okay for you, take care :)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Having been there 4 times, I will say this.

Don't make any unnecessary expensive buys.

Start looking at registering for job search companies like Reed.

Watch out for people being extra nice.

But most of all DO NOT stress yourself, if your name is on a list to go nothing will make them change their mine.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Mine is, I seem to have gone from healthy Sunday night to waking up Monday with no voice. No cold, nothing. Now I am having trouble swallowing, so think it is tonsils flared up again. Great news. NOT!

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Thankfully, not tonsils. But a raging throat chest and ear infection. Amoxicillin 3 times a day for 7 days. And plantar fasciitis flared up again. So apologies, I am feeling sorry for myself today. :(

I wrap ours up in a large towel like a furry burrito. No scratching then.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Tried all that. He is a nervous timid cat so even petting him doesn't happen often.

Soon as I go near him more often than not he runs away. I try not to stress him too much as he also has a heart murmur which is currently a 2-3 on a scale of 6.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Its a joke mate, you need to turn the pages, anyway it sounds it might be one of those real life situations that turns out to be amusing to everyone but you, in time you'll look back and laugh

Don't think I will ever laugh about it. He needs this medication every so often as the illness reoccurs.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Its not easy as I have two cats so even putting it in his food is a challenge cause when seperating them they get all edgy as if something is up.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Is it a tablet? Do either of them like cooked meat? A relative had a cat who would eat his thyroid meds wrapped in a piece of cooked chicken, and that was it. Twice a day that happened.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

The other cat will eat anything and I mean anything, however the timid one won't touch anything you try to put down for him.

So straight to mouth is the only way to give him the tablet.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Typical lol. Always the way.

In other news, i've had sinus trouble since May last year!

had various anti biotics, nasal sprays and other drugs but the infection won't shift Now have a referal to an ENT specialist at end of March.

Constant dripping nose for months is drving me up the wall.

Never rains but it pours with me lol.

However I can already tell that I have developed nasal polyps and and hoping I won't need surgery to fix it.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

l hope things get sorted out for you with your Sinuses Stephen.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Our rescue cat is petrified of most human contact and as far as meds go (he has Calici Virus requiring daily doses of pain killers and Interferon) we had to find an alternative way of getting them into his system. He will only eat raw meats and we couldn't make sure that he was getting his full doses but eventually we hit on giving him his meds mixed into squirty cream and now he sits waiting for his daily 'treat'. We can't give him the commercial stuff in an aerosol as they all contain sugar or sweeteners so we have to make our own which is a faff but it sure makes the job of giving him his meds easier.

Now if I could just find a home based, stress free, way of getting rid of the matted lumps of fur that this now very fit, extremely long haired cat has developed.

ah well, that's a problem that only the vet and a general anaesthetic will be able to sort out.....

.......I don't suppose anyone has one of those total cover, bomb disposal outfits going spare? Failing that tips on surviving getting an irate, kamikaze, spread eagled cat into a cat carrier for his journey to the vet would be very welcome.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

What my relative did for a cat who had matted hair was to get someone to hold him and then shave the matted fur off. It grew back much better.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Poor wee thing. At least he has a understand owner that loves him.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Funnily enough wee TJ has long hair too and is always getting matted tufts. Can't get near him to brush. Sky the other cat loves getting brushed and has a much shorter coat.

Need to take him back to the vet to get him shaved again to clear it again. The Vet wouldn't do it last week as he was stressed enough already from the cystitis.

I've had them 7 years now. They were two when I got them from Cat protection. They are polar opposites. Sky is like a dog, waits by the door when he hears me coming home and is always cuddling in to me and the wife and sits on my lap, takes treats and even tries to eat off our plates!

TJ on the other hand, runs away from his own shadow! Won't take any treats or food off us. Wee special case lol.

Love them both though, but they are pests in their own ways.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

A one off trip to the vet when everything is stable may be possible but holding him down and shaving him is not possible with our cat. His medical condition is worsened by stress and if his Calicivirus gets any worse we have no further options available to treat him.

Friday night was very scary for me, after years of taking Amoxicillin, I suddenly developed an allergy to it. Breathing got diffucult, head felt like it was going to explode and I felt like I was dying. Stopped them on Saturday morning, been fit since then. No problems, and had to jump through hoops this morning to get the GP to prescribe an alternative.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yes l am allergic to penicillin as well as l remember taking them 20 years ago and l had a swollen face , trouble breathing and a couple of other symptom's as well Mark and it was pretty frightening to say the least.

Your GP hopefully if he is doing his job properly will have added this to your medical info so next time you have to see him about anything like a infection or other things it is flagged up straight away.

l hope you are feeling better now Mark.

:tu:

I hate that as well. I can't find it now (it would take a long time to search my posting history, so I'm not going to look for it), but I did make a post here that someone quoted me, altered the quote (with the "there, fixed that for you") and totally changed the meaning of what I'd said.. It happened before I was a Mod, and I'm not sure it's against the rules anyway, so I ended up in a little fight with the other poster.

Another thing I hate, people who use that Let Me Google That For You site to post google search results. Why do I hate it? I find it both patronising and rude. We don't know if the person asking a question has googled it and not found the answer to their question. They may also not know what to search for. If they did, why go to the effort of going to a forum, possibly signing up, the finding the right section and posting? I've seen it happen here that a new member has gone to all the effort of signing up and posting only to get a link to search results on Let Me Google That For You.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Happened to me only the other day. Did think about returning the favour by amending one of the posters replies but then I'd be as childish as them. I also wondered if not explicitly against the rules it should be frowned upon as it makes a mockery of quoting. Thought about complaining but what's the point when they're a member of the team :rolleyes: I suppose it just helped convince me my decision to engage more on other forums to be a good one - shame really as it used to be good here and I enjoyed taking part.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Maybe now you're a moderator you can do something about it, or the site can 'outlaw' the practice. However have to say there's a certain other mod who uses the practice quite regularly themselves in the Current Affairs forum !

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

'quite regularly' - twice in the last five years... :D

Could be worse, I could post every day being miserable and thinking the worst of everyone... ;)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yesterday was not a good day at all. My Mum had to go for another CT scan as her paraprotein is up. I suspect the cancer has spread further but will need to wait for the results.

In regards to hubby's job it's gone but they hope to either redeploy or TUPE the later we do not want and a hoping for redeployment. Today he is going to inquire about VRS as once Tupe has been sealed VRS will not be an option so today I find myself trying to do a cover letter for him and CV. The cover letter is not a problem but the CV I don't know if it's to long or to short. I have two pages with all the usual stuff Professional profile, Career summary, Qualifications, Professional development & References are available on request.

What is the norm for CV? 1 or 2 pages could anyone advice please as it has been so long since I have had the need to write one.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

It may be what you do in "real life", but on the forum you can be, how can I put it, less than sunny... ;)

Not defensive at all, just bring facts into the discussion - if you were maligning another mod, please accept my apologies for thinking it was me...

Re your posting rate, you have obviously upped your game recently, with nine today (so far), five yesterday, five the day before, three the day before that, twelve the day before that, seven the day before that, which gives you an average of around six a day.... :D:D

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I wasn't maligning another mod. Did you see what I could have done there? Would have changed the meaning of what you said completely but that would have made a mockery of quoting you.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

To be fair Hugh, you did make changes to a post of mine, then denied it. Then when I proved it beyond any doubt you claimed is was by mistake.

The Internet has millions of forums with 10's of millions of moderators but you have changed posts more than any moderator I have ever seen.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I really wouldn't worry about the number of pages - you can print the Bible on a stamp if you print it small enough. Decide the content first and design the CV to suit the type of jobs he'll be applying for. The aim is to make it interesting and relevant, hopefully, giving a few examples of any notable successes, achievements, experience, challenges overcome etc. The aim is not to say everything he's done in great detail but concentrate on the most relevant information and that which gives an indication of what he's capable of. Once you have done that, that's the time to lay it out in a format which is logical, clear and easily accessible so the reader can find what he/she wants to easily. The number of pages it occupies will be determined by how you do that and the font styles/sizes chosen but I don't see any reason why you should be worried about using more than 2 or 3 pages if that's what it takes to present what you feel is important and relevant. You're aiming to whet the reader's appetite - make them want to see your husband to find out more - and you can't do that with a CV which is little more than a chronological list of qualifications and job titles. In a nutshell, the CV needs to express not only what he's done but what he's achieved/contributed and, therefore, what he has to offer.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

The real key to a good cv is transferable skills, do a generic cv with everything on it and tailor it to each specific job he goes for and don't make it to long, there's no need to list irrelevant jobs from ten years ago or having loads of hobbies or interests listed.

My own stupidity..

I've borrowed a MacBook Pro from work, and been using it. All of a sudden, the keyboard backlight stopped working in OS X. It still worked in Windows, so I backed up the OS x install, reinstalled it and restored the data.

The backlight still didn't work, so looked up the problem and found a possible solution was to reset the System Management Controller. Did this with no effect. Then I turned the brightness up..

Also a slight moan today although not exactly the fault of VM:

Woke up this morning to no internet, tried the TiVO and no signal there too.

Went to work and checked the VM service status and found a local fault. Fair enough, until I saw the reason. Someone decided that they wanted to have a close encounter with a local cabinet. No doubt because of the very heavy fog this morning but going by the damage it was either a van/HGV or someone going way too fast in a residential area, in visibility that was less than 20m.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I saw people driving without any light let alone fog.

My moan getting a Drs appointment.

My mother got a letter regarding blood tests to make an appointment, after 30 minutes trying to contact the surgery, she gave up and my dad drove her up there.

But the Hitler at reception said "You have to phone to make appointments" despite the fact mu mum saying that she couldn't get through (plus if you turn up in person they should give you a date).

She spkoe to my sister who when she got through demanded to to to the Practice Manager, but Hitler said "We don't give there number out", my sister pulled her ace out and said I want to speak to him NOW or I'll pass it on to her boss a solicitor (which is true).

She left her number and with 10 minutes she had a return call, and an appointment was made for the following day.

My sister went with my mum and told the said Dr that she was NOT happy with my mums level of care.

Well they left with more information in those 20 minutes than she had since leaving Hospital back in early December.

Today she got the first appointment to de a dietician.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

So tired, been up all night nursing oldest GSD, he's just coming upto 12 and for the last few years has has regular bouts of fits every 3-4 weeks. These bouts last 24 - 48 hours where he can fit every 30mins to 2hours.

Only good things are that he's never in pain, he recovers fast and when he's not having his bouts he's amazingly active and still acts like the ex-police dog he is.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

That must be a scary experience for you Kymmy. I hate it when our Ben is unwell and I do the same as you. Still having the little love still with us makes it all worth while so :tu: to you.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

As you say he is not in pain and is part of the family and in my mind that makes it all worthwhile as they give you so many wonderful memories..

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

He was put on Epiphen which would control the fits but he was walking/stumbling along on them like a zombie and had no quality of life so the vet gave us a choice of being on or off..

Thankfully he's a strong dog so although the fits tire him out he recovers well. Here he is only a couple of months ago enjoying the mud at Hunstanton

His last fit was at 06:15 Sunday morning so we decided to have an early night as after 12 hours fit free they are normally over with. Low and behold I'm downstairs with him as he had another one at 01:00 am so just over an hour ago :(

He's sleeping atm but waking from sleep is when it tends to strike. I just wish we could keep him awake but he needs all his rest :(

So another sleepless night for me :(

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Don't you love it when your local GP can't decide what medication levels I should be on!
[One doc within the practice decided my blood pressure was high and tried to increase my beta blockers dosage, whilst another doc said blood pressure o'k]
Me in the middle already in 'la la' land said leave it as is!
Same with the dreaded statins, already gone through blood testing liver levels rising if going to a high dosage of statin.
So I would suggest anyone taking multiple meds to question why the need to alter, 18tablets a day is not my idea of fun!
Nearly forgot, letter from GP advises me that blood glucose level rising and warning issued!
Turns out my cocktail of medicines can cause glucose levels to rise so an early starvation blood sample organised.

I was informed today by a maintenanceg uy that a new photocopier, scanner, printer is being put next to me.

They've spent over 3 hours running cables to this location, when there is on in my office free.

I'm willing to bet I will not be on the user list for the new machine.
