:-D

In case you venture to Brum.... one of the best pubs in the world is the Old Moseley Arms, or Old Mo, as the locals know it. Tindal Street, Birmingham B12. At the risk of upsetting fellow Londoners, the beer up there is much better than ours.

Sent it twice didn`t think the first post had gone, Doh! too busy answering Skype call. :-D :-D :-D

Deja Vu? :-D

Muffy and I was in love with Gene Hunt :-D

Didn't you just say that once, Budgie?

Just heard Gene Hunt is a possible candidate for the job...

ABSOLUTELY.... Brilliant choice in my opinion.

I absolutely agree with you Rollo. Any lump, bump, rash or change in your body needs immediate attention. If you are told its nothing to worry about, and you are still concerned, then go back to see your GP, don't be put off. We have lost too many of our friends and family to cancer to ignore any warning signs.

I hope your wife's consultation went okay today.

Another 70s throwback. Perfect.

Indispensable humans have not been invented yet.

JC is gone & may his long legs follow him.

OH had a lump on her tongue. GP said not to worry and it was only 3 months later that her dentist flagged a problem. It took another 6 months for the scans by which time head & neck surgery only option. So now I am sitting here on a lazy sunny afternoon waiting while oh has yet another post op restorative consult. So if you get a lump on the tongue get to it. Clarkson had every reason to be worried.

At least I can get a signal.

lol Polly xx :-D :-D :-D

Edit: I have posted this on the wrong thread!

I live in an old rural council house, one of those in a row of six that were built to house farm workers.

It is tranquil and peaceful here and the tenants are all over forty, the oldest is ninety-five.

I knew somebody who lived in a council house in the town five miles away and life there was very different. Most people along our row are on drugs but we don't have to pay for them, our dealer delivers them in a white bag with Boots written on it.

Her husband made quite a good sum delivering drugs too, but he did it in little polythene bags and sometimes he had to go and stay somewhere else for a few months. He carried a knife whereas the worse anybody round here might have is a little pocket knife they have had since they were fifteen or a fag hook.

Living where I do, I think it is quite a good idea that I should watch the odd Kyle programme so that I have some idea what life is really like outside my rainbow bubble.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D I just love you Joy! xxx

the lump on his tongue was probley his brain :-D

Writing in his column in the Sunday Times, Clarkson said:

“Two days before the ‘fracas’, I’d been told, sternly, by my doctor that the lump on my tongue was probably cancer and that I must get it checked out immediately. But I couldn't do that. We were in the middle of a Top Gear series. And Top Gear always came first.”

He confirmed he has since been given the all-clear.

I have two very very dear friends with cancer, who are both going through chemotherapy, plus other painful and invasive treatment. They both have had extremely stressful and demanding jobs. I can honestly say that no matter how stressed they have been they would never ever resort to punching a colleague in the face.

If I'm in Stratford at that time it's likely I've just been to see a play at the RSC - not known to be a hotbed of street violence.

I'm not denying that street violence happens, I've seen it on TV, it just isn't part of my every day life. Or most other people's, I'd have thought.

Before all these make believe counties were created Birmingham was mostly in Warwickshire while the northern part was in Staffordshire. Bits of Warwickshire not within W.M. can be pretty toasty on a Friday/Saturday night e.g. Stratford but guess at 11:30pm G. watching telly ... but not old repeats of Top Gear.
