Just got through the ToDo list in time to get out of here for Christmas and thought I'd pop in to wish everyone the best of times. We're off to France for ten days, so I won't be posting until the New Year.
Taking the trainers and planning to get lots of running in if this cold I can fell developing doesn't put me out.
Better just check the Inbox in case anyone has a last minute panick...
Susie, be a darling and pass me one of those chocs, and I'll share my rosemary and parmesan breadsticks with you when I get home. At least I can be sure the kids won't have eaten them.
I'm just about to start evening surgery. Last one until 2nd January!
just a quickie (ooer), i won't be on later tonight as I'm going to visit the family. they do have the net but my mum is addicted to chatting on MSN so my appearances will be less frequent than those from my house with my own ADSL line!
bune, LOVE your new pic! And JBBT, don't you listen to that Dinosaur - your current pic is "skill" as we said in the 80s at school
>>>Daintily picks nuts out of teeth with tip of claw<<< Thanks, Susie! Yum!
Saxplayer, if you market ANYTHING with the claim that it just MIGHT "fight" colds, flu, and all of the other things which the Askit advertisers used to call "the miseries", you are bound to sell loads of it. Problem is, the pharmaceutical and conglomerate multinationals have the entire market sewn up so you'd have to sell through the small ads and over the internet (and even then they'd spike your website). I've always thought it would be rather fun to spark off a new fashion in the alternativist world. Octopus snot, anyone? Great pick-me-up for those tired-all-the-time days...
"Placebon's miracle action expels the cold virus from your body by embedding it in mucus and projecting it away from you in amazing 100mph blasts of air!
Well that would be the pretext. But a quick go of the secret club handshake (or displaying the URWFRC vestop) would instead lead to a couple of hours of skiving.
Psi, if they knew you were in the uniformed services my reception staff would be falling over themselves to offer you hospitality, and it would be, "Dr Raptor, Mr Union Flag is here. Would you like to see him now, or shall we entertain him until all your other patients have gone?"
I don't mind seeing people with colds and suchlike. Just as long as they accept that all I can offer is sympathy and the occasional bottle of generic decongestant.

Just attacked the hamper we got the other night and it's got some wonderful chocolate covered nuts and raisins and apricots in. Anyone want one?
Off to get p*ssed!
Hope you're nearly done everybody else!

V-Rap - I'm thinking of markting a great non-cure for colds, 'flu and loads of viral infections, called Placebon. Think it's got potential?

Placebon - the natural choice"
Back on monday for a few hours and then free for 10 days. Catch you all later
Maybe I should book an appointment at V-Rap's surgery.

I'm sure Oliver will forgive you if the present you bring back is big enough.
