Just realised that I am showing my age with these references but hey ho, it is what it is.

That's fab. Sorry, I could not resist. 😜

I think they were some obscure band that was around when I was younger. I believe they visited my city in 1963 and 1964. Wonder what became of them? 🤣🤣😂😂 Just had a thought... Did they not have a small hit with a song called, "Papercli...

😂😁🤣 As they no longer allow smiling /laughing/sad votes I will just do as above. 👏👍

My apologies if I came over as being rude, that was not my intent. I was trying (in my poor way) to be a bit funny and putting in a bit of silliness. I have some slight understanding of the amount of work and thought that goes into these things ...

My first thought was that someone has too much time on their hands but they are actually quite brilliant. Keep up the good work Davey. PS I've noticed that you cant do a smiley/laughing reaction now, only an upvote. A few of th...

I noticed that this thread seems to be missing since the transfer so thought I would resurrect it. If I'm wrong and it is hiding somewhere then let me know. OK, it's been a while so lets see if we can get this going again. I killed a spider...

Hi cessa, If you go to the list of topics in the UK forum you will see a whole load of similar questions to what you have asked. Some of the replies are comparatively recent and some of them have some good advice so you may find something to hel...

I've been retired for 7 years and I still have not grown up.😂🤣🤣😂 Originally I went into nursing because I needed a job and I had seen male nurses around (very rare in the early 1980's) and had done some work in hospitals so went in with the idea...

Superb art work Davey, thank you for sharing.

Love it, love it, love it. Now THAT'S an image.😂🤣👍👍 Sadly I've worked with too many doors over the years.

Could visualise this as a film sideshowstarlet. With as you say a bit of a cliff-hanger at the end. Then a series could be made. Love the enema image. (The visual one from Davey and the mental one from the story). Who knows? Might see ...

I agree Stars, looking back I think I got the best of the health service. Years ago when a complaint was made it went into the "Complaints Book" and really not very much happened unless it was something serious. Not long before I retired I recei...

Thank you for that. I have never seen these. Doesn't mean they weren't used, just that I have never seen them - but then I did not work in general surgery. A quick internet search says that they may have been known as just plain "abdominal bin...

Sorry, what is that? Never heard that name. We used egg white and oxygen.

Just remembered this one, not me and I never did it. Soaking bread in Chlorpromazine (Largactil, Thorazine, Sonazine) and feeding it to the seagulls that flew around the hospital then watching them trying to take off and fly when they were compl...

Ah... So that is why they came in thick plastic bags. Never knew that - and had no reason to ask at the time.

Moderators please feel free to move this or amend it as necessary. As the title states I have a question about the US healthcare system. My cousin moved to America when he finished his degree and gained work in Texas, he met a girl and the...

Absolutely NOT! You tried something new and it has not worked out as you hoped - fine, now you know. Find something new or yes, go back to where you were. Neither option makes you a loser or a failure. if anything it makes you better and stronge...

Thank you for those answers guys, I was unsure and obviously a bit curious. He did state that he wanted to keep his UK citizenship although I think he could get dual citizenship. I think he just does not want to go through the hassle of exams and tes...

👏👍👏👏👍

Good afternoon all from the UK. I want to wish you all a Happy and prosperous New Year when it comes. As we say in Scotland; "Lang may yer lum reek." You can find the translation (and a few other Scottish sayings) here https://www.scot...

Off topic but... Happy Christmas, Happy Festivus, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Hannukah, Happy Seasons Greetings to all the crusty old bats. (If I've missed anyone out, my apologies). Hope to hear more from you all next year.
