Hey, you disappear off to Froggie Land slurping champagne and scoffing nouvelle cuisine while leaving us all in the lurch, then get all bent out of shape when it takes us a while to realise your not dead and just been enjoying yourself.

I didn't disappear to froggieland-----I'm a Yorkshire missionary teaching heathens the error of their ways whilst edificating the natives On the correct use of the English language!
Une baguette and a pan aux chocolate hardly makes for nouvelle cuisine--------and "Sunshine", I never get bent out of shape!
You can hold on to my passport in future.
I wake up every morning and realise I'm not dead, it's a great feeling-----check it out ?

Happy to see ya back at it....never thought about commenting. Thats what I do in the winter, hangout in the workshops and I almost forgot... Plow snow also and once in a while build a house! BTW Concepts are lookin as good as before your health issues so the "paw" must be working well.

Poorly Paw has had to get on with life------been three months since I had the mad fit of depression and drove the four iron into Mother Earth,
Today it had extensive use and the donut syndrome is back, along with the throb - throb, back on the thousand mile an hour French aspirins.
Never forget to comment Gary------good , bad , or indifferent-------they always make me feel better.
Still got some health issues--------- I just sit on em that bit harder--------keeps the buggers in check.

You gotta love the French medical system
you can see 3 doctors in the same day
each will prescribe 3 versions of the same tablet
go home with 9 bottles

Unfortunately Pilgrim it's just as broke as the NHS !

we know why

[jackiewilson]

we know why

Buggered If know Pilgrim-------could be the same as here-----"administration" and fat cats milking the life blood out of it. Even a third rung up the ladder admin gets twice as much as the prime minister .
As with most modern day jobs------it's not what you can do, but what you can say you can do.
Saw a most beautiful RIVA ARISTON, about two foot long in polished mahogany, had all the bells and whistles and propulsion-------just about a perfect replica . Seriously considered going for it, but hells teeth it was £400 cash money with no leeway-----------that's all my beer money down the drain in one move.
Car boots are like boxes of chocolates-------ya never know what your going to get 'till you get there!

[powerabout]

the UK system is the worst run business on the planet, Europe's largest employer and no centralised buying, there's a start

[jackiewilson]

See if I can get you a job in the NHS Pilgrim-----------you get in there and straighten the buggers out.

better to be a supplier

better to be a supplier

Now that's purely a mercenary attitude Pilgrim, and there was I thinking you was a tree hugging, God bothering do gooder! In reality, your just as self centred as the rest of us------we're called the "human race".
