who might be thinking of joining.

You will only be allowed to stay if: you can spell, can type, have a good grasp of English grammar, and preferably have a degree (OU is allowed).

And whatever you do don't show any sign of a slightly smutty sense of humour. That will make the poor gentle-women on here tear their hair, and Gransnet will delete you in case you scare off any potential advertisers. (not there seems to be many at the moment)

phoenix I really am most grateful. Throughout my life, ten operations and countless investigations, must have cost an awful lot of money. Thank you NHS. flowers

Same here, I have a section of my right hip bone in my upper jaw, don't ask!

I was also a holy terror when the youngsters in the office moaned about smear tests. We are damn lucky to have that service available, and not to have to pay at the point of provision for it. Same goes for mammograms, although how they ever managed to get my 32 A's between those plates is beyond me!

How do you think it feels to squeeze 34G inbetween the plates? Phoenix It hurts!

I actually asked the woman who did my last mammogram how it worked with very small breasts, as she was manhandling my rather more ample one onto the plate! She just said 'We manage.' Yes, it does hurt, doesn't it soop hmm

Friend of mine was running a training course using radio microphone, pinned to her lapel. Toddled off to the toilet. Didn't turn it off, so all the chaps heard her having a wee!
