Pimp my Ride UK.

Here I am driving my brand spanking new car.
Actually that's a lie.
Here I am trying to fit onto my 2 year old nephew's small plastic car. My other choices were a Tonka Truck that was my brother's when were small and a wooden tricycle. I think I chose well.

cyclists need to not be on the roads.

Let me set the story for you....
I was on a double decker bus on my way to work one morning this week. We were parked up at a bus stop letting passengers on and off on a very busy road that has its own bus lane.
I was quite calm, enjoying that fact spring is here and the sun was shining when *THUD*. A massive bang followed by spine chilling screams. Screams that made me think the gates of Hell were opening up and flames were licking at the feet of Sheffield's commuters.......
Turns out, a cyclist had cycled at full speed into the back of the bus.
He was not wearing a crash helmet and, by the time he'd crawled out from underneath the stationary bus and a kind hearted passer-by had pulled his mangled bike out, he had only one sleeve left on his jacket and no skin on his bare arm.
The bus driver got off to see if he was OK..... in response to this he blamed him for being in his way!
How silly of him, it must be really hard to see a DOUBLE DECKER BUS at a BUS STOP in a BUS LANE........ idiot. I only wish I'd seen his face as he realised he was about the smash into the rear of a bus.
Another idiot who deserves a mention is "pink hair lady" who stinks of fags and comes in the shop all the time and talks utter bullshit...... today she told us she is tking the Police to court for over exaggerating crime figures...... can't wait for that......

Polar bear.

Illness update.

I finally got to see the 'real' doctor who was very nice and helpful.
I am now being treated for sinusitis which I have had numerous times but this time feels a tad different.
He also suspects I am suffering with Glandular Fever and am in need of having my remaining Wisdom teeth out on the right side of my face.
Therefore I must find myself an NHS dentist which will be no easy task. My last NHS dentist was awful and I never went back because he was such a meanie.
Pah!
Now I have to go to work and train upi four new people for another store whilst wanting to cry because my face hurts.

Medical dilemmas.

So I got to see the Nurse who was qualified to see me..... in the end she wasn't qualified to make a diagnosis. Therefore I have to go back before work on Saturday to see a real doctor.
In any case, she thinks its not an ear infection but a viral infection of the sinus area. Lovely. So I must persevere with this pain even longer.
On a plus, the nurse said I had the cleanest ears she had ever seen!

Modern Life.

Getting a doctors appointment is virtually impossible these days. You need to go to college to learn how to do it.
I phoned yesterday as I'm suffering with an ear infection which is nicely spreading from my left ear to my right ear and is preventing my from chewing anything as it hurts my jaw.
No appointments......
Do you have any for tomorrow?
Yes...... but I can't let you have one..... you have to phone back tomorrow.... at 8.30am.
So you have appointments, I'm happy to see ANYONE yet you are not giving them to people who phone? Ok, just so I understand.
So here I am, sitting, waiting for 8.30 to arrive so I can sit and listen to the engaged tone. Thanks doctors.
