The Virtual Lounge

[Anonymous]

well, fluffy onesie on + donkey brown boottee-tyle slippers

cuppa Twinnings tea = everyday variety, decaff + s/sk milk = no sugar +

Blue Ribband original choccy bic to hand

checking on my cat Marvellous Marty the Magnificent = beside me in his pet-bed under the wooden desk 

on which new basic desktop printer will be put = on or around next payday ..... I mean upon the wooden desk not upon the cat  

kicked my old basic Epson printer in frustration many many months ago 

therapeutic for me for about 3 nano-seconds but really, really bad for the printer 

well, let's see if there are many takers for my initial entry into the off-top unofficial world of 'the lounge area'

Have they found a bed at Salford @jonsie? (Or have you persuaded one of the staff to take you to the nearest pub?)

Barring any last minute emergencies I should be off to Salford sometime tomorrow for surgery Thursday.

However, at the moment I've been pushed into a side ward because I have an infection in the leg (quelle surprise!) and on antibiotic drips. So I will keep everyone updated. ...

ps. ....had beer on Fathers Day

It's the waiting that is so frustrating. Heard nothing official as yet....

Just call the first person who passes you and ask them to find out 'what time you will be transferred to Salford'..

[jonsie]

Passers by are few and far between. ..They forgot to bring me breakfast and the morning cuppa and my medication. However they did remember to change the iv drip. The joys of being in a side ward. On the plus side I managed a decent sleep and I've just buzzed for breakfast....cold soggy toast and no rice crispier but managed a tepid tea.

My god I'm turning into one of the old moaning gits I was in with before

@jonsieHave you got a buzzer /bell in that side ward? If so mate, you have to learn to use it. As a retired nurse I can tell you side wards are easily forgotten. Obviously you don't want to be a 'nuisance' but ringing for the basics and answers to your important questions isn't a reason for criticism...In fact most nurses appreciate a reminder...
