I seriously am pretty upset. The NHS have given me nothing. Only my faith has kept me going. Only by thinking it is a sin againgst God has stopped me from commiting suicide John

You should get some bed rest Jude. After I broke my leg & the recent Covid vaccine. The 1st 48 hrs were the worst, then it was a steady gain in health. John

Unfortunately had to throw me out at the door to face surgery... no visitors due Covid. He was a bit anxious and felt left out.?

Hear, hear! I just hope that the “catering” improves! ?:D Best Susan

In hospital myself. Through surgery. Looks like I went a few rounds with Mohammed Ali. Bruised. Swollen . ?Met interesting Professor from St Thomas’s Hosp London. Hoping to escape today. Been a trial but survived. Don’t think husband has been eating well. Hospital food atrocious :-)?
Jude ? Jude, I am so sorry to hear about your sister-in-law Jude. If it's any help at all you can tell her I am going through the same things & give her my email address. Group therapy helps. I think it may come from the despised mothers claim "a problem shared is a problem halved" Hugs John

Just watching the "Last Crusade". All the students scrabbling at his door. That brought back memories! Students ambushing me from the labs to my office. So I could solve their prescribed problems for them John

When we were first in Australia ?there were three of us from the same family group in the same school.My eldest half brother was a rather chubby lad to put it mildly and was getting bullied at school. I wandered over in the playground one day when I saw the culprits in a group ?around him and I said “Ok and what are you lot up to then”... bit of shuffling amongst the little turds. “I said “Leave my brother alone do you ?hear me - or do you want me to go speak to your parents. I bet your mother would be none too pleased (pointing t them) ”….and as they were shuffling off I pointed to each of them and gave them the eye-see-you sign with the fingers and said in as menacing a tone as you’re ever likely to hear “And I know where you live”. :-) :-) Gave them the “she who must be obeyed attitude".
He never had trouble again, but I did overhear one of them telling another lad “Watch out for her she’s mean”. I was 11 at the time.?

She had organised a soiree. Mexican themed. She wanted travel movies playing on big TV with music from elsewhere on play lists she had sorted. Trouble was she bought a new speaker thing and it wouldn’t work. I worked out why it wouldn’t work.?
She’d bought the wrong one. She needed something Bluetooth-always on I had deduced. But of course she believed some salesman.?
I went over to see what I could do or alternatively set up another speaker.?
She was ordering me there at 3pm sharp then said come five minutes earlier. So we drive more than half an hour - arrived set to sort her problems and asked her to point me to what she wanted sorted and she came out with expletives in front of a dozen people and abused me for being there and said I was in the $&@$&!! way.?
I was gobsmacked frankly as I wasn’t attending the party which was supposed to be starting later though it appeared other people had turned up early.?
Anyway it was far too noisy shouting and music turned on via other speaker arrangement I’d suggested on the phone to which she had said no and was insisting she wanted to use what she bought. ?
So I said I can’t stay it’s too noisy and left. Life’s too short to put up with rudeness.?
I’ve done an awful lot for her over the years which she freely admits helped pay for her house. My conscience is fine. I’m leaving her to sort herself out.?
:-) Jude

Bullying is everywhere. I don’t put up with it. I recently had a long term friend be utterly rude to me in front of a group of people at her place when I had called in to fix equipment at her specified time! ? I didn’t make a scene. Made polite excuse and left. Walked up the road and phoned husband to pick me up. I later told her I wasn’t speaking to her she needed to apologise. Some time has elapsed and I just got an email 90% of which was about her. She just hasn’t got it and just showed herself up.?
Very disappointing.?
