Today Is A Good Day
17 years ago, Mrs Legless started at university with the dream of becoming an Orthopaedic Surgeon.

Today, we attended a hotel where Mrs Legless was handed a white envelope. She gave it to me ('cos I'd had a dream) and I opened it. It said:

"I'm please to inform you that you have been successful at the Fellowship Examination in Orthopaedic Surgery."

17 years, 2 degrees, a few years of hospital residency, 5 years specialist training in Orthopaedics and she's finally made it. She's now a consultant..

I'm so proud of her I could shit fireworks.

Cheers

Same Old Boring- Sunday Morning
Heart attack number 3 just reared its ugly head a week ago. Before you say anything, I don't smoke, drink in moderation, am not a fat huffer (I have lost 7 stone in the past 2 years), and exercise regularly. Oh, and I managed to conquer diabetes by diet alone.
SO- why the fuck does it keep happening?

Friday the 13th!!!
Most of the people I work with "Touch Wood" all the time to not tempt fate. The other day I told a colleague that I have never come off my bike and he went nuts going "Quick! Touch some wood!" I of course didn't because its all bollocks. This morning coming in to work my pedal bottomed out on a corner and I nearly lost it at about 35mph. Showed me didn't it!

Do you have any superstitions?
