.... who is under a lot of stress with the forthcoming Wedding.

However, my OH is also under a lot of stress, and pain!

15 months ago she had an operation on her knee and was told that if the same problen recurred then a total knee reconstruction would be required.

Sunday morning, I heard a faint shout coming from upstairs. Her knee had gone again!! Couldn't bend her knee and it took her ages to get downstairs.

She's off to the Doctors early this morning, but meanwhile she is moaning......

"Ma Knee is the root of all evil"

:-D :-D

( the above is fact, except for the moaning part. OH only moans when I pull her leg ;-))

LOL :-D :-D

I'll update after the visit to the surgery :-)

Ha ha, Allan, you do make me larf sometimes :-D

Wend, with a very painful, arthritic knee that my doc has told me will need surgery before too long :-(

I'm off to bed now - moaning with pain :-D

I can hear 'im indoors saying 'Gawd, what now?' :-P

lol Wend :-D

Update

OH saw the Dr. He showed her the surgeon's notes and said "Basically the cartilage is extensively damaged due to arthritis'" OH said "I know, that is why I had the operation in the first place!"

Dr then asked OH whether she was still taking her painkillers

OH said yes

Dr said well be careful because they may react with your medication for high blood pressure.

OH...I'm not on any medication for HBP.

Dr OH!

OH I am on medication for high cholesterol.

Dr: How's your husband's bad....

OH. My husband doesn't have a bad....

Dr; Your husband is Allan?

Then the light dawned as my wife asked "Do you mean the speedway driver?"

Dr :That's him

OH: not my husband

The Dr then looked a bit perplexed and asked are there two Allans with the same surname.

OH; no, there are several but some of their surnames are spelt a bit differently.

Dr, rather quickly, "Well keep taking the pain killers and we'll keep an eye on the knee."

Not only did we have a good laugh we've also found out the medical conditions of two strangers.

Although the other Allan is not quite a stranger as I used to receive phone calls for the other Allan from various vehicle dealers
:-|

ah, what it is to be so famous!!!!

lol Ann

Some are born famous, and others have fame thrust on them!

Unfortunately I am in neither category :-(

The duchess of Cambridge waved to me outside tesco once,

Does that make me famous???

well let me tell you about the wedding on fri,

weather forecast--- rain and wind.
four people cancelled yesterday but i still have to pay for the food.

the lady doing the flowers for the church had a mild heart attack last wk,so no flowers.
the grooms mother has made the cake and it looks like a car crash,

but im sure it will be a lovely day.xx

You should have told the Guests that it was going to be your version of the Olympics. and sold Tickets.:o)))> **M**.

lol Suzanne

It's certainly turning into a day to remember. Just so long as the caterers don't go down with food poisoning :-D :-D

OH DONT!!!
Seen the cake tonight and im happy to report that it looks quite nice.

im sure this wedding WILL be a wedding to remember,

WATCH THIS SPACE. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

All the best for the big day, Suzanne, I'm sure that all will be well :-)

thank you ALLAN.X :-D

You're welcome Suzanne :-D

I won't be able to see how the day went until late Sunday/early Monday WA time, as I am going to a family reunion weekend later today.

My advice...relax, and go with the flow!

Keeping my fingers crossed for better weather than forecast for the wedding, and better everything else.

Best wishes to your daughter and the bridegroom Suzanne, hope that you all have a lovely day. Look forward to hearing all about it.

Went the day well, Suzanne? :-)

oh what a lovely day we had,weather was the best we have had for months,baby granddaughter screamed all though the service,toddler grandson ran up and down shouting "wheres my bag i want my dummy" people were laughing so much we couldnt hear the service,

on the downside a 3 year old had a bad convulsion before the reception,it lasted 20mins and even caused my some stress(im a nurse) shes fine now.
my sister kicked off at the evening reception and made a show of herself.
the next day we had a big bbq for 50 family and friends,weather was so hot we had to bring the young children in doors.brother cooked all the food(we didnt cook one small furry animal Allan,i was tempted but couldnt find anything with enough meat on it to feed us all except for the dog,but would have been arrested by the R.S.P.C.A,SO DIDNT BBQ HIM BECAUSE I DIDNT WANT TO SPOIL THE PARTY. It was a good weekend,dont know why i worried.x :-D :-D :-D

I'm pleased that all went well, Suzanne. At least with all your stressing, and rampant imagination of various diaster scenarios, reality would never match up to the possibilities.

You should have let me know about the lack of small furry animals. I could have arranged for a couple of wombats to be flown over :-D
