Ooh-errr...

[Bbbananas]

All this acting about with cockatoos and tattooes, I've just had a call from Papworth giving me the date of my operation. I'm not so c0cky now - that's took the wind out of my sails a bit. I need to go home and have a lie-down...

Tell me I'm being a wimp. Tell me something nice.

[mccfluff]

you'll be fine salla, just lie back and think of chicken and mushroom pies

[Bbbananas]

carrust - it's me heart not me fanny !!

Get blathered? Good idea - but alcohol will be a no-no for a while. Afterwards? Well, that is a different matter entirely. Cheers!

[Bbbananas]

the last thing I ought to do is to start thinking of your mushrooms on the operating table - I'm going to be conscious and have to lie absolutely still.... no quivering with laughter or shaking of the shoulders... Bl00dy hell, wish you hadn't said that now - I won't be able to help it now, laying there thinking of your mushroom story.

[sara3]

really? I thought you would run screaming, lol!

feel free to give me the details and I'm sure plenty of us would love to squeeze you in ;o)

[Sqad]

salla...for the boys, no big deal, just another day at the office.

For you...no big deal as well, but you won't see it that way.

What is the date?

[Bbbananas]

You're right sqadlet - no big deal really. It's not the op I'm afraid of, it's dying from it for some reason or another. I have a track record for unusual bizarre & strange things happening to me that don't seem to happen to anyone else....

19th Feb - but I have to come off the tablets 3 days before! I usually go strange if I'm 12 hours late with a tablet - I'll be collapsing all over the place by the time the op date comes. I shall be splatting in shops and fainting at work - Mmmm, Keith might have to resuscitate.....mouth to mouth :-)

[sara3]

I'm starting to feel more sorry for Keith...

[Sqad]

Thanks salla.....ask them if they could provide a perch in the operating theatre in case your cockatoo makes an appearance....;-)

[Bbbananas]

Hee Hee..... I shall take advantage of the situation, obviously.

Look on the bright side - at least a couple of weeks off work, in the winter. Can't be bad.

[Bbbananas]

Are you suggesting I am in danger of sh1tting myself sqad?

[Bbbananas]

(sara - keith might....!)

[Sqad]

salla....no, but the surgeon might, should he view the new arrival. ;-)

[Barmaid]

Right, well now I know where I need to be on 19 Feb!!!

(I'd be more worried about me rocking up with a cheap bottle of plonk rather than anything the docs will do!)

[mccfluff]

this could be entertaining , the surgeon sh!ttin himself as he observes salla sh!tting a white cockatoo

[Slapshot]

i don't know what you op is salla but maybe the subconcious is linking something being removed with your dream......

[Bbbananas]

It would be a bit of an unexpected surprise.... I doubt if he'd be able to hold his probe very steady, and it is imperative to my future wellbeing that he have a steady probe. I should warn him.....?

[Bbbananas]

Slapshot - I must put you right my love - it isn't an op on my rectum, anus or anything to do with my bowels or nether regions, so doesn't really connect to my dream. It is my heart (yes, readers, I DO have one,,, it's been proven). Good thought though ;-)

[rinkins]

Yay salla I'm sure Sara can get a few of us together and arrange a visit!

Hope it goes well x

[Bbbananas]

So far then, visitors are rinkins, sara & barmaid - brilliant idea. But I thgink I'd bust my stitches.... Smuggle in that cheap plonk, I'm sure I could class it as medicinal.
