The Wonderful Man insisted I have a check-up, so I spent most of the morning at the hospital where I was given an extremely rigorous examination by a very nice (female) doctor. She's diagnosed a chest infection and given me a seven day course of antibiotics, but says I can still go on holiday on Monday as long as I go and see a doctor in Italy if things get worse rather than improve. 
The WM hasn't permitted me to 'do' anything today other than sit and be waited on - which is why he's a Wonderful Man.
grannya you should have been there before today, (take that as a ticking off ) take care of yourself and enjoy you holiday, but your WM will make sure you are do. 
OH B****R! Now I've really messed it up, did as I was told, for a change, and started a new thread.... gave it the wrong name and here we are... two threads going! 
old I would have done the same, I looked on the other thread and thought I have posted to grannya where has it gone, of course the glass of wine does not help
Enjoy Italy GA and make sure you sample some of the wonderful ice cream on my behalf 
take care and hope you feel better soon.
Hope you get better soon GA and have a fantastic time in Italy 
Italy sounds nice, have a nice holiday ga and get well!!
G.A. have a lovely time, did you say where in Italy?
Oldgreymare that makes two of us 
I've also started a new thread. HELP! 
I've had a 'Chicken Licken' experience but, instead of the sky falling on my head, it was one of those 'special offer' notices.
I was innocently glancing into a frozen food cabinet feeling slightly miffed that the fish fillets on offer had been packed in China (but with a Grimsby contact e-mail no less!) when wallop, a blow to the temple!
I was more surprised than anything. A young couple paused to see what had happened but hastened on. A lovely lady about my age cornered an assistant and demanded that 'something' should be done. I was taken to sit down then had to remain there while an accident form was completed..... I do hope no-one thought I'd been shoplifting!
I have to say that the lady shop assistant who sat me down was kind and helpful, the two male colleagues who breezed up to 'sort me out' seemed more in need of a course on 'people skills', although one did offer me a cup of tea!
I was asked if I wanted to hear the outcome, I said yes. I await a phonecall/letter with interest!
ga have a lovely time - you deserve it!
Thought I might get a phone call to see whether there had been any new symptoms ( of which there have been none!) or just a:
'We're sorry about what happened, how are you?'
Nothing! They need to look to their 'people skills'.... too many male managers who looked more embarrassed than I did at the time!
GM sorry,how horirble, hope your head is better, don't hold your breath waiting for that call.
Oldgreymare 'People skills' matter. Way back in the 40's, the local grocer knew the value of being attentive and courteous. Times, they are a changing...
I'm off to Glasgow tomorrow, for the final drop-bots tests. Gally get into ode-mode and make me
OGM hope your head is better
super, I hope that you get a good prognosis and the promise of successful treatment, after all you've been through. Will think of you tomorrow.
OGM, I think that store owes you at least a bouquet of flowers!
Annobel Won't have a verdict until late February. At least the proddin'/pokin'/pushin'/shovin'/enema'n will be over and done with.
