In Response to Re: My story : Southern Carribean Cruise, staying in Puerto Rico for 3 days then Cruise Antigua, St Lucia, Grenada, St Croix, St John USVi. We have done the cruise a couple of times now and absolutely loved it, we are visiting a few Islands we haven't been to and a couple we have, Last year we went with Carnival Cruise lines and although it was really nice we both felt that Royal Carribean suits us better so we are going with them this year.

Sounds alright, but its not a patch on the Yorkshire cruise.
Out of Hull, up to Scarbados, Filey, Bridlington and ends in sunny Redcar. No flying required. Uses a state of the art dingy to navigate the choppy waters. On a clear day, you might spot a rare sighting of some shopping trolleys floating in and around Scarborough beach.

I was lucky enough to spend the first 23 years of my life within a 5 minute drive of Redcar.
I owe everything to lemon tops. Especially my masculine figure.

That was actually our first choice but is fully booked up for the foreseeable as all the " dinghies" are full.

We have it all in Yorkshire.
Scarbados, Ponte Carlo, Cas Vegas......and Redcar, though I'm pretty sure that is Teeside not Yorkshire. We don't want it, they are welcome to claim.
Think you guys might have misunderstood me. I didn't mean 'dinghy', I quite obviously meant 'dingy'.
Dingy....Dingy is a word that can be used as an adjective to describe someone who is forgetful and makes silly choices at times. It's similar to ditzy, only usually implies it as a less intensified. Often times it refers to someone who has less than average common sense and/or simply doesn't think about what they are doing, as well as frequently forgetting about what they are doing or what they have planned.
We have loads of dingys in this neck of the woods, its why we use the state of the art ones for the various Yorkshire cruises.
Hope this clarifies nicely, and doesn't look like its just be made up on the spot.
Bearing up chaps, I rang docs to see if they had results of my sample I produced on the spot at hospital, they didn't know owt about it, rang hospital, they said I had to go docs, merry go round. Went to docs to pick up a prescription and make a doc appointment, receptionist said the doc will ring me on Monday ( At Work) to discuss my problem to see if I need looking at, I am by no means a prude but discussing REALLY personal stuff over the phone whilst in the office is a little embarrassing to say the least.....
It's my beautiful daughters birthday today we took her out for breakfast this morning after her night shift, she was really happy and it is such a joy seeing her with a smile on her face...here's the thing though, my good lady wife had the "super" idea as to what present to get her ( I am rubbish at guessing what presents to give so I really shouldn't say this)
My daughter is always "fake tanning" as is the norm with kids of that age, so my good ladies idea was to get her a self tanning thingamajig , it's like a BIG Tent with a spray gun with all different shades, ronseal bronze etc etc, I expressed my concern before we purchased said thingy, ie we have just moved into a new house, new carpets, daughter is a messy so and so, is this a wise choice? I am going to find it really hard not to say the words " I told you so" the first time she uses it
My wife's birthday in 2 weeks - I am struggling to think of a gift to get her ( a pet tiger perchance)

That is a great idea, all depends on A- my up and down bodily function situation, B- Chloe's work schedule. After having met you and having chuckles on the felt I am sure you and her will be best buddies

Does she play any poker Tom? Can't believe you would trust me with your little girl lol x
I think I have a problem with listening to what people are saying or just am toning out after the first few words, that or the doctors receptionist is a little bereft on giving me the facts.
I had to take a sample in, she gave me the tiny plastic bottle ( how does that work) and I leave my repeat prescription with her to get it signed by doc for me to pick up next day and drop my bottle off ( clever ey, 2 birds one stone and all that)
I ring at 12.50 next day to check if prescription ready, here's where it starts going a bit wrong....
I inform her I am hoping to drop it off after work and ask what time they shut, 5pm she says, ok I will fin work early drop off said implement and pick up prescription, oh what prescription she says, uh ohh... The one I dropped off, let me look for it as t isn't in my tray, oh and you have to be here before 1 as that's when we send the samples away.... Sigh...
I also have issues with remembering roads and where shops are located, hence picking prescription up and not faxing it through to chemist as is there default,my wife then comes with me and we drop it off at chemist.
Next phone call, good news Sir I have found your prescription and faxed it through to the chemist for you...aghhhhh....
But Mrs receptionist I did ask to pick it up as I cannot find the chemist, oh did you? Sorry.....
I dropped off my sample and have just remembered this morning that I should have rang them yesterday for the results....
I remembered to ring for my results Receptionist said the doc has asked for another sample
Toddle to docs all the time thinking they have lost my b...... Sample, ask the receptionist why would the doc ask for another of the same, she looks on her pc and says... ( with a huge smile ) oh he has put here blood found in sample request another...
Of course I go back to work with all kinds of doom n gloom thoughts, get home and speak to my good lady wife ( with my usual sombre expression ) oh Tom she says, the consultant told us this could happen for quite some time due to the brachytherapy ... Dunno whether to feel relieved or not.
Tried a couple of the Ukops tourneys, some rather differing play I must say, got short stacked in the 1st £11 bh and tried to play AA a little too cute, only 3x Bb in earlyish position, 2 callers. Half pot , still 2, 3/4 pot Bb comes along, shove river and lose to 10 4 off suit
Was doing ok in the £5 one last night until someone shoved under gun, I'm sb with QQ and he covers me, maybe it's a flip....I call and he's AA, this time AA holds...Dohh
Did ok in the DTD games last night finishing overall 4th ( I think) great banter in the team, love it.
Sorry reader I have been going through a bit of a tough time lately. I took the requested 2nd sample in on Friday as I was having my Hormone and Flu Injections, rang up on Wednesday for the results and got this response - " Oh it says here that the sample couldn't be tested as it was over the 48 hour limit"
I guess that dept doesn't work over the weekend, could someone have told me perhaps?
I have been trying for 3 Weeks to get a doctors appointment, I do realise they are under funded and are short staffed so I have been patient, I cannot post on here what symptoms I have as they are very personal and to be honest I don't think you would want to know I asked the receptionist how do we go forward from here and said maybe it's just the effects of my treatment , but it would be nice to get professional advice , she put me on hold and rang the doctor, then said oh the doctor says don't worry about giving another sample.... I said ok, what about my other symptoms? She then spoke to the Locum who asked me to provide another sample....sigh.
Apparently the doctor wants to ring me next Tuesday (at work) to discuss my symptoms to decide if I need to see them..
Went home and told my good lady, she has instructed me to tell them I really can't discuss it at work, so I took my sample in today and explained why I would rather not discuss whilst at work, the doc is ringing me tomorrow afternoon as I fin work at 1pm.

Cracker of a cruise that, Tom. Think you & your family deserve that, been quite a year, eh?

Good to see Tom's sense of humour is intact - that's a good sign.
