This is the abridged version of one of my first ever posts on AB. Friend of mine walked to pick wife up from her barmaid job. 2 yobs accosted him, one broke an Autumn Gold cider bottle and slashed him across the neck. He survived, but another cm or 2 and he would've probably died. DHSS saw story in the paper, friend wasn't declaring wife's earnings from her 2 nights pw. He got done and fined.
FF; his young son started a house fire early morning playing with matches and a teddy bear. Wife and baby died in fire.
FF; In a new relationship when a lorry ploughed into his house. Luckily, his partner was four steps up on her way to put kids to bed. Front of lorry stopped at 3rd step.
FF; His youngest daughter and her friend squeezed through a hole in the garden fence on to a nearby property which had a swimming pool. Alarm was raised when both girls fell into water, my mate dived in, saw a mass of blonde hair through the stagnant, pitch black water and pulled the child out. It was his neighbour's child, his died.
FF; He got a job maintaining the railway lines and, along with another guy, was hit and killed by a safety truck.

I'd be really interested to learn how someone who's out cold could be brought round with cocker. I'm serious because my husband had a hypo this week and would not have been able to drink. If you can do it with coke somehow could you let me know? We always have coke here but I couldn't use it. Perhaps you could ask your daughter for me? If there was a choice between using out of date pads and bandages or carrying on bleeding I think I'd take the out of date stuff though. It is crap the kit was out of date though
It is a shame for them because Edinburgh is beautiful. I spent the first night if my honeymoon there and think of it very fondly :)
