Bad News I Am Affraid

:laugh2: you might be old but I'm in my prime mate 'cough splutter gag choke'

I haven't used it for about 5 years so I wonder if I still have an account :scratch_one-s_head:

I might call tonight as I need a pick me up but just hope I don't bring Kim down in the process so unsure if I should ring as I'm probably not very good company ATM

[duggee27]

well ,  you could use ' viber ' i found it easy to use on my phone and no camera needed

"Nobody wants to look at us old farts ".. too true

use it all the time with the kids being o/s

[ausjack]

Yeah I've done my job here and now feeling I'm not needed any more so I need to start to look after numero uno as no one else will so good luck with the rest of the recovery and you'll be back up and about in no time so take good care and I'll catch ya on the flip side :angel:

Take some cement in you coffee tomorrow and harden up Mate :ok:
This thread is all about AC's recovery and I am impressed with the overwhelming support from our members and her Heart and endeavour to recover.
As if you would give up on you're Mates, I don't think so.
Kimmy IS special and deserves our support.
End of rant

Don't make me come up there wif me trusty Telecom Microadjustor, matey!

You're doing just fine, AJ. Everybody gets geography and poverty, and how they don't mix. You do what you can, and that's all that counts.

Do you think I'd be able to go round and harass Kim every few days if she was in a hospital up your way? Of course not. Heck, I probably couldn't justify more than one trip down to Sale, let alone the daily commute her parents put in. Its just luck (my good, her bad) that she's around the corner from me, that's all.

We all do what we can, when we can. And anyway, it really is the thought that counts.

Meant to post this update yesterday, but I got home and fell asleep. That Kimmy sure sucks the energy right outta you!

When I arrived, it was all doom and gloom. Very sad looking and grumpy girl sitting on her bed shooting daggers out of her eyes. Apparently there had been some shouting matches with the medical staff, pertaining to not being allowed out of her room to enjoy the sunshine.

So, being big and mean and ugly, I immediately rushed out to engage in verbal fisticuffs with the nurses. Buncha pussies... they caved almost instantly. Maybe it was the 12-pound Telecom Microadjustor I was wielding menacingly? :angel:

With the young lady astride her chariot, and under firm directions not to leave the grounds, we did a lap of the ring road, and I innocently asked her ladyship which way to turn. Being a helpful sort of chap, I of course mentioned the shopping centre was to the right.

"SHOPPING CENTRE!?! Turn Right!"

So off we trundled to Brandon Park, with the mood rapidly lightening and much mirth and merriment. Some discussion ensued about hurling wheelchairs into oncoming traffic, and a description of the scene in Deathrace 2000 where hospital staff line up elderly inmates along the road to be mown down by the racers.

Of course we visited the banks, as this was their delivery day, and exchanged contact details, with promises they would call when anything of interest showed up. We spent quite a long time at Bank of Melbourne, educating the delightful staff about the intricacies of coin collecting. Hopefully they won't now grab all the goodies for themselves. And apparently they get quite a lot of foreign coins, so that may be something of interest to be further investigated.

The return journey was even more hilarious, with the accidental detour into some mud being particularly humorous... "No, we didn't leave the grounds... some lunatic rushed into the building and just threw a bucket of mud all over us! Really!". I'm sure we were about to be reprimanded for disturbing the peace, but managed to get back to the room without anyone noticing how much we'd exceeded our one-hour time limit.

Then came some surfing (Kim is now the proud owner of several dollars worth of donated Dogecoins), chatting about doctors and going home and even some of you lot. Dinner was picked at half-heartedly and sent back mostly untouched. I grabbed a piccy of a much happier girl which I'll upload once I recharge my iPod.

And we made plans for Kim and Fulvio's Excellent Adventure next Thursday. The plan is to kidnap her in the afternoon, go to the coin shop in Nunawading, and maybe that other, not so nice one we don't really like, then bring here here for mum to feed her, before going to the MNS meeting in Box Hill. We know how to sneak in and out of the hospital now, so curfews won't be an issue. What they don't know, won't hurt us, right?

A most excellent post Fulvio!

Just remember that the keys of the car are in the garden. :angel:
