Not smug pronouncements. A realist being real.[/quote]
Having been necking ’em down at the Last Chance Saloon for quite some time, and well aware that my options are finite, the ponderings of a realist -ad nauseum – I don’t need. Seriously. I mean – three pages to make a point? Give it a rest!

Yes..yes..yes..all very well and good, but antibiotics have saved my life on at least five occasions and are helping to keep me alive in the here and now. I don’t have any effing choice so kindly shut the feck up with your smug pronouncements and herbal goddam remedies! :evil:

I don’t support euthanasia as every living creature is driven by instinct to try and survive usually manifesting itself in a fear (or at least reluctance) of death, brings to mind a phrase I think I heard somewhere “suicide is for quitters” (cruel but true)

I haven’t voted, because i’m in a quandary over this matter. Over the past five and a half years, my husband and family have been called to say their farewells to me – as I appeared to be losing my battle to live – on average, once a year.
I am just out of hospital a matter of weeks, but I wasn’t expected to be. At my worst, the docs in charge…[Read more] -

Indebted to you once again, fek. Your thorough and obsessive research has ensured that I can rest easy from prosecution by The Sunday Herald for swiping the article on Bridgend. Not only that, but I can now copy and paste everything from the crossword to the obituaries with uninhibited glee.

Rag and Bone man – bloody hell that takes me back: memories of mum giving me a pile of old clothes to take out to the cart. Me being sorry for the horse and well chuffed with my new balloon, shaped like a snail with a smiley face and antennae (the balloon – not me!) God, I was easily pleased. :?

I’m also thinking of taking out a double-spread advert in The Daily Moron, Shazza, in addition to trawling the highways and byways with a megaphone.
