Last summer I buried an axe in my leg whilst on a camping trip, just one of those things you do. I had it seen to at Wrexham Hospital as in they blobbed a bit of supaglue and some steristrips. This open wound was 5" long and a good 2" deep just missing the shin bone inbetween my ankle and knee so whilst there is not a lot of skin there but it did need holding together. After two days I popped into a walk-in centre at Ruthin, then again more glue and steristrips, these had given way before I walked out of the door.
When I got back to Hereford I phoned my doctors and explained about the open hole in my leg and was told I couldn't even get a nurse appointment for 5 days! I went to our local Walk-in centre and was immeadiatly put on the bed and stiched up, over a week from doing it! I eventually got a nurse from my registered doctors to see me 3 weeks later. It really makes you contemplate self doctoring esoecially when out and about! |

That's when I was been kept amused by the headless chickens running around in the dark
 That was quite an entertaining night Laurie, the bin fire and the fire on the bus! It was quiet when I got back at 5:30 in the morning  |

It's all happening at Bala. JWL's doing a repeat performance this year. We've already booked the ambulance.

Reminds me of the time I was in hospital, on the trolley, in my gown, being brought to the operating theatre. A doctor travelling beside me was reading my notes and said
"You are back in with your knee, I see" (I'd been in with a damaged knee about ten years before this). I was actually in for an "internal" examination! Did'nt exactly inspire me with confidence  1982 88" 2.25 diesel

And no we're not jesting The past two years have seen the same ambulance driver come for a business visit, he told us he's altering his holiday so that he can join us again this year :thumbsup:

What is the world coming to when potholes are complained about on a Land Rover forum Darren

Just think of them as a free shockabsorber test.
