Trousers

Please, please, please tell me why men insist in showing everyone their underpants, the bum of the jeans, trousers at what can only be called half mast, come on ladies tell them to grow up, I am told that is a sign that you are Gay in the USA prison system, well young men of Britain grow up, mummy must have shown you how to dress surely, if not ask her for her help, I can assure you she knows how to do it, I have to say it is not smart it does not look cool at all, so please learn to dress like an adult it is not hard!"!!!!.

Sleep test

Carrying on from yesterday I had a real mess last night, putting the equipment on I had wires going all directions, normally I sleep with just boxer shorts on no more, but last night I had to have a tee shirt on, tubes up my nose taped to my face, a finger cable to go down the sleeve, my God what a pain, just not enough cable, then the one on my throat to pick up my snoring (if I indeed do), they seem to think that everyone who looks like I do snores, I have been married 43 years my wife has never ever mentioned me snoring to any extent, I rest my case, any way all wired up I went to bed, just how they expect you to sleep I have no idea I woke fully at 7am totally and utterly shattered, so pleased to get the wires off, went to put it all back in its bag when I found a paper asking me to tell them, how many times I woke during the night,  how long were you awake?, could you relate any thing useful that might help with this test, yes I was awake most of the night so I really have no idea as to how many or how long, the whole thing was a real pain, I have spent most of the day asleep looking forward to finding out just what is wrong with me, will report the results as soon as I have them.

Papworth Hospital Cambs

Well had to go to Papworth Hospital today, had a scan on my heart, a bit apprehensive on arrival, but very friendly staff very kind and caring, the chap who did the scan was great full of chat so that the time went by very quickly before I realised it it was over, I can only say what great service second to none, I will be on edge though for 14 days waiting for the result, I went from the heart hospital to the sleep clinic where I was taught how to use a machine for when I go to bed tonight to see what my level  of oxygen when I am asleep is, many cables and belts to fit before bed, I just wonder if with all this on will I sleep at all!!!, will report tomorrow.

Mobility Scooter

Well, I have just had my scooter replaced bu the British Legion, looks great, a lot faster than my old one, has springs so better for a trip to the shops, wow bounced all over the place, the springs made the trip a nightmare, really had a bad ride, hurt my back and gave me a headache, what a pain in the bum, the guy who came is going to recommend a bigger scooter to stop the problem, I just hope that they listen to him.

The Falklands

Argentina, what a pitty the silly woman who purports to be prime minister has to use this day to insult us, they lost the war, it is over no one of both armies wants to see it start again, the Falklands lies 400miles from Argentina so not close by by any stretch of the imagination, the Falkland Islanders want to stay British so it is there in the sky keep your hands off they do not want to belong to Argentina so go  away forever and leave them alone.

The Falklands

Bit of a shock this morning!, I did not realise that it was 30 years since the war, I was on the regular reserve in the army and was called up to be on stand by to go, but as luck would have it I was stood down, very lucky.

April Fool

So pleased today, did not read one, did not hear one, did not see one, there are enough jokes going on today for real, George Galloway in Bradford, Syria, more restrictions on Iran by the USA, North Korea testing rockets, how long before the west has to suffer another crazy attack.
