Hi Rufus

Sorry to hear your sad news.

I hope you recover fully and Look After Yourself!!!!!

We need your sillyness on Gransnet.

I'm sorry to hear about your sister Rufus. Its especially hard when you're far away.

Take care, enjoy your meals and keep warm. I see one airport Down Under has been closed due to snow! (Posted on my FB page by Aussie rellies.)

So pleased to see you back Rufus, but sorry about Barbara. You seem to be having weather to grumble about as well, it`s a wee bit draughty here! Now you`re back, take good care of yourself, we need you to inject a bit of humour into things.

welcome back Rufus, looking forward to your wisdom and humour. xx

I wondered what has become of you, thought that you'd gone
'walk about'.
Very rainy here in Manchester so I'm sure all the bad weather you're having reminds you of your old 'home'.
Up The City Blues! OoRoo

they do 4 weeks hands on in a hospital
Oooh, I bet you loved that bit.

Glad to have you back me o'l cobber.

Hi Rufus,
Sorry to hear of your health problem. Hope you are well on the mend.. Take it easy and wish you all the best.
I always enjoy your posts. Even the risqué ones ??

At least the nurse didn't say 'Just a little prick'.
Shysal; As a matter of fact some did, but I thought it best not to use that term here, to save GN ladies' blushes. It kept reminding me of a "clever" joke as told to me by an Irish bowling colleague years ago, but had to keep biting my tongue in case I blurted it out.! To me, all nurses (not the male ones of course!) are modern day Florence Nightingales who wouldn't appreciate any remotely risqué jokes. I miss them all!

Rufus2 One of the best cricket jokes, almost certainly apocryphal, was Brian Johnston saying, 'Here they come now, onto the field. The batsman's Holding, the Bowler's Willey."

In this video, it seems these two lovely old commentators feel Jonners set it up himself.

Oooh, You are naughty!
Unfortunately it was a case of "hands on" for nurses and "hands off" for me!
Just as well really; I haven't been fitted with a pacemaker, so could have finished up in ICU; not the sort of delayed exit I had in mind! OoRoo

Hi Rufus
Welcome back.
I am a newbie to your cheerful ways.
Slainte. Irish version for good health to us all.
Dawn.

Up The City Blues! OoRoo
Buffy; Good to hear from you again! Hope you're keeping well. There's a tune called "Walking in the Rain", but I don't do that these days; also, my Wellies don't fit!
Watched City deal with the Hammers on TV today. Old Alf Garnett must be spinning in his grave! OoRoo to you too!
