Re: Nothing In Particular

Thanks to you all. :)

I've just had a phone call from a doctor at the hospital, and they are going to give her hip and head a scan. I probably won't hear any more till tomorrow.

Possible hip problem so she's off to Basildon hospital. Also her cognitive function seems to be diminished, but that may be due to the circumstances. :(

Re: Nothing In Particular

The first responder has been, but is unable to do much because because she is not a medic and thinks Mum might have hip damage.

Have rung 999 and now waiting for the next responder, but it won't be an ambulance.

Thanks Andrew, she is warm and as comfortable as the situation allows.

I hate waiting. :(

Re: Nothing In Particular

I'm at Mums, and she has fallen over in the kitchen. :shock:

I'm not strong enough to get her up, so I pressed her emergency button and they are now sending a responder to help.

Re: Toroidal Transformer Mounting

I'd try and find an old inner tube. Your local tyre depot might have some in the skip. Not car, but motorcycle or even wheelbarrow.

Not sure if it's facts or conspiracy but possibly worth a listen, it just seems to me a funny world when an edited royal photo can make headlines for days and these events are seemingly covered up rather quickly?
Funny you should say that Steve. :wink:

I'm not a metallurgist, but I can't see that sort of aluminium work hardening in the short term.

Bending as Steve described won't need any heat.

Re: General health matters.

Perhaps calling it the 7 day bug was a misnomer ?

I bumped into a lady up the road whilst using the local post box.

She told me she had something similar, but after 5 weeks she was still feeling some minor symptoms and the lack of any energy. Time will tell.

Re: General health matters.

7 day bug. I caught it at Potters last week, first noticed slight symptoms last Thursday evening.

Well done Dave.

Re: Nothing In Particular

I see they are messing with the snooker rules in the Riyadh world masters, by adding another ball, gold coloured, worth 20 points. This gold ball only comes into play if a player gets a 147. Once a 147 is not possible the gold ball is removed from the table.
