Blah-Blah Bar / Re: CV and mad panic behaviour
Last post by DJC -
Dunno if the rules have changed but Mrs G2G had ankle surgery last year and had to be minimum 7 weeks post covid for the surgeon to agree to perform it.

Ms DJC’s surgeon didn’t mention 7 weeks and just slotted her into the next free spot.  She is still testing negative so it may be a non issue anyway.

The anti-virals are magic and my symptoms have diminished.  I got a good night’s sleep last night and that always helps.

I was sitting in the isolation chair watching TV last night when I felt a shooting pain.  I looked down and saw a huge black bullant latched on to my little finger and pumping venom into it. 

Ice and Stingose eventually eased the pain and I guess it could have been worse but I was thinking what’s going to happen next 😳
