Nolite te bastardes carborundorum —read that in a book ..don’t let the buggers get you down

The week continues its roller coaster ride.

I’m missing the wonderful Pippi Longstocking photo shoot already.

My amazing cool EW has shown me her cancer decision -tree -flow -chart I’m in her pocket all the way.

Mad people of the world still mad….

1. Young ‘ bright spark’ who I tried to help with a patient app. turns out to be a harassing misogynistic bully . He thought he’d make millions out of patients. Vulnerable women patients as it turns out. A story for another day.

I’m looking forward to the first weekend in 18months of no emails texts phone any communications at all. If all my whizzy blocks have worked! I still jump every time my phone bleeps.

2. Gazumped -daughter….her mother-in-law asking if she can discuss Christmas arrangements . Where she should book herself in. WHAT??? Are you effing MAD? They don’t even know where they will be living. D said to tell her Premier Inn Lake District is s’posed to be good.

3. My elderly parents not mad at all but are having a meltdown because they’ve ordered a new tv but can’t make it work. Actually they have managed to get the channels to work. Normal BBC ITV They are wanting DVD, Netflix and iPlayer. Mum keeps telling me ‘ I’m perfectly capable of sorting the Ethernet and LAN but I need the HDMI’. Modern elderly that they are determined to be! But they want them like yesterday. The number of missed calls I had I thought it must be a medical emergency. ( remember the incident of the Stanley knife?!) I’ve rustled up a lovely aerial tv man and asked him to do whatever it takes. Order should be restored today!

4. Mad Bladder… still mad..I’ll make a plan… next week…

Have good weekend
