'Arry' and the new knee

Hi all, greetings again from the grave..


Sat this afternoon in the hospital with Carol when me flippin' mobile rang in my pocket. On silent I may add but yes I should have turned it off. Anyway Val the nurse turned and said it's ok to answer it Chris. Now how the hell did she know it was ringing when it just vibrated. It was either the give away smirk on ones face, or she was standing too close. Looking at the phone and realizing it was only Harold from work, I just turned it off. Seconds later the answer phone rang, seems the poor old git has an infection now in his spine resulting in 6 weeks in hospital. He only had his new knee 2 weeks ago, oh the guilt of turning the poor sod off.

Anyway we've just returned from a meal out, couldn't be arsed to make tea so popped into a local and had one of the biggest curries I've had for ages. Now sat here stuffed and rather warm. A quick change for work tonight and I'm off to the settee downstairs. The boss (Carols only boss when I let her mind you) has called to a friends up the street, Maxine has been fantastic since the op, calls in most days and checks on Carol, but drinks my orange juice like there's no tomorrow.

Well here's to Friday night returning faster than ever, midnight to be precise. When one undead in a Honda shall be driving home to bed....er, coffin
