TGIF :-) 230307

Hi Friday peops

It has been a weird week - a lot of 'butt' related moments - does my bottom look.......? Nothing new there then. Every meeting I had on Monday was either cancelled, or when I turned up they'd forgotten why I had been invited....think it is getting to NHS meeting overload - so I just shuffled around aimlessly... feeling like 'yeah but no but.........'

Tuesday was fab - worked alongside a couple of Rehab engineers and Occupational Therapist at a 'Specialist Seating' clinic - amazing teamwork - basically clients (mainly kiddlings) coming in because they had outgrown their wheelchair seats (some were dangling precariously as they'd suddenly shot up having a growth spurt!) or their posture in their chairs is poor - our engineers work with some external company engineers who sit the kids butts in a huge plastic bean bag - and suck the air out and mould the chair around these little sprogs - and voilla - a made to measure seat - and they are comfy once more. I wonder if the bag would be big enough for my butt? The engineers get to know them over the years and the adoration in the kiddlings faces was a joy to see - nice to think we're getting something very right ;-) Peter came round in the evening - and we were browsing through some photos he'd brought over - and I had one of those jaw dropping moments - as I spotted myself on a couple of the photos!! Yup - we've met before - some years ago - he's got a photo of my butt!!! He had been on the same 'bog hopping event with SPICE :-O See the pic from the SPICE website - he has one from right behind!!! Even with the photos he hadn't realised it was me?? Must have made a big impression eh - get it?... mind you he was with one of his many ex girlfriends then - and I was with my lovely sweet Kai - yes have found someone with a longer history than me - can't keep up with all the names he flies at me - hope there's not a written test!

I've had the last couple of days as leave - trying to 'get it all in' before the end of the financial year - so I did myself a list, and amazingly it has grown rather than shrunk.. I've ticked a few off though! And guess what one of the things on my list was - yup - I've bought a new water butt - which Peter is going to fix up for me the weekend (hopefully...) - waiting for the pic to upload from my mobile - may have to wait until next week - you will be impressed!

A few of you have asked about what has happened about my telephone flasher - well, he had been arrested and charged I understand but I've heard no more - hence I thought this joke which Nessa sent me tonight was rather apt :-)

Hope you have a great weekend - Heather's in her new Meriden mansion, Gerry & Jane move next week - and a SPICE baby has arrived - more news next week about that, and I popped Sarah's birthday present round to her a month late - but I'm thinking it's better to say I'm 11 months early for her next one :-)

George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window.
George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.
He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" and he said "no". Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available.
George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again."Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed Well, you don't have to worry about them now cause I've just shot them all." Then he hung up.
Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit, and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars red-handed.
One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"
George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"
