I suppose, but he's not an "out and out" striker so it's probably unfair to place the expectation on him to be as prolific as Ba, like it was for JDT to suddenly become Alan Shearer when the latter was injured.

I had McDonalds for tea last night, it was fucking mint.

Out of hours work is tiring, more difficult and causes massive disruption to a worker's life. It is, in effect, harder work. That's why it's paid more. Presumably CT, you would not be happy if I paid you the same fare to drive me to Aberwystwyth that you would charge me to take me a few miles. Imagine if we only paid Cath, J69, and myself a third of what we do now, or nothing at all, think of what else we could spend that on. I despise the the way you use 'taxpayer' in this context, as if you have some fucking right to dictate what I should and should not be paid for. I am not employed by you, and what my salary is is simply none of your fucking business.

Anyway I went to the gym this morning, you've got to love that 4th or fifth visit after a long break, where unlike the 1st-3rd your body's got used to it and you no longer feel like you've been runover by a bus, nor walk like John Wayne after he's been fingered by King Kong.

Who knows!

Btw I think regarding Dan's predictable health lecture to the quite deliberate attempt to wind him up by J69, the word "chomp" has never been more apt!

My grab smoked 40 woodbines a day and lived until she was a hundred and seven. I used to swap my sandwiches with another kid for bourbon biscuits.

Haha, I don't think so.

It seems high to me too but 40kpw is a pittance in modern footballing terms.

How do much does that cost Brock? After years of pissing away money on sandwiches for work I've been taking soups to work. I've wondered about making my own, but in addition to all the time involved the ones I buy only cost me 50p-£1 so not really bothered.

I've been meaning to donate for ages, apologies.

I think there are some things better left unseen.

Some women I work with were talking about the female equivalent of movember - Fanuary. The inconsiderate hags.

I know, the short handle has got me out of a spot several times. Others have not been so fortunate. We use equipment and techniques to cope with these problems but they can still fail, and with an increasing obesity epidemic they are more likely to.

Vajazzle?

Now there's an interesting mental image.

Extra shiny nail polish?

Occasionally tubes but not with cannulas, as firstly I can get access in almost anyone (I know cannula bragging is what house officers do but I'm quite proud that I put in a 14G with my left hand at half five this morning - although as you would expect the vein would have comfortably accommodated a swann ganz introducer) and secondly because I don't worry about not getting a drip in the same way I do about a tube because obviously the consequences are so much more dire. Although not being able to cannulate a fatty exsanguinating from a lacerated femoral artery wouldn't be ideal, of course. However seeing as most people (including a lot of surgeons, such as the one who tried unsuccessfully to get me to do that man I described above at 4am) are oblivious to a lot of the practical problems associated with obesity, let alone the threat of death from a failed intubation, I think there should be a public health campaign based on what doctors see when they look at the obese. For example, you could easily concoct a story in obstetrics of combined anaesthetic and surgical difficulty leading to tragedy for both mother and baby.

I've already had a shower earlier today, I mean I could do with relaxing in a steaming hot bath (with bubbles and the Les Mis soundtrack on for Dr Gloom) than I really need a clean.

I'll let Monkeys Fist field that one. I could do with a bath, just finished 7 nights and spent most of the day sorting a broken starting motor. At least I've got a week off before my new job starts.

Tbf curries are one of the few meals I usually have (naan) bread with, on the infrequent occasions I have them.
