Those bluddy weekend neighbours across the river - kids ride their motorbikes up and down my side fence. And they're twostoke bikes so twice as noisy. Don't mind people riding our boundary to get up into the bush to x country ride - but my side and back boundaries are not x country you noisy b*ggers! TG they get hungry and go home for lunch or I'd have to go out and give them some lip!

My sister in law's dad [my nieces' lovely grandpa Gary] is in hospital bleeding badly from the stomach...because of taking ibuprofen for years. **** you drugs and their side effects...

[marchogaeth]

Doctors who double dose NSAIs by giving you a "bottom up dose" because that's not in your stomach but which is just as damaging.

Doctors who don't prescribe a "stomach lining" protective pill for people who have to use NSAIs.

Doctors who insist NSAIs only work if you take them three times a day.

Zazz, I know you said no chit chat but I really hope he's ok, soon.

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

A head cold that has now moved into my chest.

(I hope Gary is okay Zaz, puts my rant into perspective)

What Marchogaeth said - I take Diclofenac x3 a day and I HAVE to or I wouldnt function. However my Mum said to me and what has the DR prescribed to protect your stomach? I knew nothing about this so at next appt I asked him.... big sigh... oh go on then attitude! Not good. If my Mum hadnt known then I probably would still have no idea!

It has an adverse effect on bone structure too. Not for long term. My surgeon had me drop it after two weeks.

Let their ruddy tyres down!

My rant; Husbands who don't read eBay listings, then buy something that is cash on collection only. It's 200 miles away, and is going to cost £200 for a courier! PILLOCK!!!!

[Feral007]

Drivers who tailgate you in the dark on country roads with their lights on high beam. And won't overtake when you find them a straight and slow riiiiiiiight down. B*ggrs!

Today, my husband decided to burn stuff - for security reasons.

This included an envelope, quite a bulky envelope. He didn't even look inside first. The contents were two cheques worth £2095, the international insurance cover to take our car abroad and 1000 euros.

The cheques can be replaced, although not before we go on holiday (we got the all clear from the doctor this morning) so can the international insurance certificate.

I don't want to even think about the euros.

[Glutton4...]

Hubby is a PILLOCK!!!

I'd like to say "We-ell, it's only money!" But nowadays we're so reliant on it!

((HUGS)) to you both.

[julesapple]

I just can't believe her threw the envelope onto the fire without even looking inside. It was really quite bulky and it was labelled in red pen. I've been in tears most of the afternoon, we now have no money for our holiday.

It took me the best part of a year to get the money we were owed back from E.on. There's no way on this earth they're going to re-issue a cheque without a fight, and if they do we have ten days to bank & clear it. Fat chance. They had the last laugh after all.

[zazen999]

Oh my. I came on to rant about Mr Z saying 'Gladstoneberry' all weekend and it driving me crackers but I feel embarrassed now.

[julesapple]

Hmmm. That's nearly as bad as the BH saying shall we by 'orgasmic' veg?
