    Eggheads

    I would dearly have liked to go for B, but I knew it was C. They took their time over getting it.

    Boris Becker seeking British citizenship

    Sadly not. I think at my age and health I probably match his broom cupboard "speediness" though. That is how he got his nickname "boom, boom"

    Boris Becker seeking British citizenship

    Yup. So glad he didn't just do it as a one off, but repeated it twice.

    Boris Becker seeking British citizenship

    My claim for fame is that I once played tennis with Boris for a couple of hours. When I was at sixth form I used to spend a whole lot of time playing tennis, mainly at the Shoreham tennis club in Kingston lane. I'd go there most days, even to practise on my own, and I was in their mens first...

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    T Thank you, a route I am reluctant to use, but may do. It seems I am now dealing with the people at RSCH who can get things done, although the person who can re-schedule my op is away until Monday, they have promised me that they will sit down then and get it sorted. We shall see.

    Anyone in Somerset see 2 Stealth bombers flying overhead this evening?

    We had two tornados fly over Shoreham today - maybe there's a war on

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    Well, I am now thinking about compensation. As I can't work and I now make them responsible, I may start to charge them at my normal contractors rate, which is £1,000 a day.

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    Indeed. Last time, in Feb, I just wanted info - if they'd said 4 months, it would have been bad but at least I would have known, but they told me nothing. I can't work, I can't sleep more than 90 mins at a time, plus, as a dialysis patient I have open access points on my arm and the stoma bags...

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    I have an ongoing mail conversation with PALs after I complained in Feb - so, far they have come back with nothing, citing shortage of their own staff, but I shall continue. After Feb, I tried to get through to someone sho could tell me what was going on, but I found it impossible. I went...

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    At one point last year I received a letter saying that to get their waiting lists down they were sending some reversal patients private and I "may" be eligible. I never heard anything more, but my guess is that because I am on dialysis, they took one look and decided I was too complicated.

    Fifa film flops at the box office

    So thats $17m out of FIFAs account and $609 back into Sepps. Sounds like money laundering, albeit a little inefficient

    Anyone know their way around hospital procedures/targets etc. ?

    I know we have all sorts on here and I'm sure someone will have a clue : I had bowel cancer last year, that was successfully operated on and scans are all clear, so that's great, but the op left me with a temporary stoma bag. I was told I'd have it for 4-6 months before reversing. I have now...

    Blimey 2-all, didn't expect that. Final set showdown

    Djokovic v Murray

    I don't think that's right, the first and third seeds are usually on the same side of the draw. Of course, it was further complicated this year as Rafas seeding was so low, putting him on that side of the draw as well. Whoever wins today (probably Novak unfortunately) will have to play 3 days in...

    Canada 2015 - Women's World Cup - starts tomorrow

    May do. I have no problem watching womens sport. Watch a lot of tennis, but the womens grunting (Sharapova) really puts me off. Was watching some netball the other evening, interesting, I know nothing about the sport. Womens hockey is good. My only problem with womens football is that it looks...

    Tony Blair's new job. European council of Tolerance. Worthwhile cause.

    People also conveniently forget that 90% of the western world supported intervention at the time and thought Sadam had WMD, but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Not that I supported him at the time, but there you go.

    The promised land. Getting further away......

    Nah, the TV companies won't be happy when most of the games for the second half of the season have nothing riding on them, therefore less excuting and fewer viewers. They also make a lot out of the play offs.

    Zero chance of that happening.
