Perfect description of drifting off.

Posted on Sat, 05 Mar 2016

This what I aim for when I try to get to sleep. I think you paint a very relaxing image, I loved the clouds opening to let the sun through.

Interesting that you should be having day surgery

Posted on Tue, 01 Mar 2016

when only two weeks ago I had the gismo (port catheter) in my shoulder fished out. Also I was warned of the smell of burning flesh. I didn't drift off though. I admit I felt no pain and I chatted away to the nice lady surgeon and her assistant....

I've seen this myself, but in Mumbai rather than Dubai

Posted on Sat, 06 Feb 2016

Bangladeshies are treated badly and seriously ripped off in Mumbai, seem they are no better off in Dubai.

The more I hear about the NHS, the more I am convinced it needs to be broken up and the whole health system in the UK re-structured. Unfortunately I am also convinced whatever they did the UK government would find a way to **** it up.
