Just had the quote on my evo8 MR which is shortly on it's way over from Japan. Be thankful indeed that yours is under 500 sheets

Just tried a bit of Braille and the op seems to have made it a lot better. Now when I'm out if this bandage I can start to read proper books again

Nice result.

After a week of tests I got some of the results I was dreading the most this morning so .... My Happiness is that I have borderline High Blood Pressure. Nothing that a slight Medicine tweak can't sort out but apparently the tablets have been causing some of my recent problems and should also explain why I have been having recurrent heamorrhages in my eyes.

Now if the rest of the tests are OK and I get a good result next week when I have my biopsy I shall be a very happy Jo

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Today Friday 10th February was my last day with Virgin Media, I left the premises for the last time at 12pm.

I took my redundancy early as opposed to the official closure date of the 30th April but I doubt it will get that far as people are leaving in droves the majority with a new position.

Now all I need to do is look to the future.

A day of mixed feelings I would guess. Good luck in the future, I know you will will miss some aspects of your time on the Dock but the last few months have been a time that you will be glad to be able to put behind you I am sure.

To be honest been here before so no great shakes this time as my mortgage will be paid by the end of the year regardless.

Just awaiting final confirmation of my new position.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

My family has had a new arrival.

My cousins wife has had a baby boy, he weighed 10lb, and not been called "Thaddaeus" like my uncle told us. But called Edward Liam.
