View Article  Going Dark

Right, I’m afraid this site will become rather ‘blogging lite’ for the next few days.  My move from flat ‘A’ to flat ‘B’, while being a huge pain in the arse is soon to be completed (hopefully by the 13th of July).

Unfortunately, this is crunch time, and I may even be without an internet connection for a while (although, for those that are interested, I should have my wireless broadband up and running before the carpets are put in.  How’s that for geek dedication).

My life has so far consisted of work, sleep, wallpaper, chase up council idiots who think that an accessibility bath for an 80 year old is suitable for 6’1” of lanky me, and do other fun stressful things one must do when picking up everything you own in life and move it to another area.

So blog posting will suffer, as will email, blog reading, MMORPGs and all the other little things that stop me from going insane.

So – don’t go away, read some of the archives if you haven’t already, and I’ll try and write something when I’m at work.

See you on the flipside.

View Article  Silly Job Of The Night
Having a vague sense of humour failure towards the end of my fourth night. Not helped by the thought that today I shall be mainly hanging wallpaper, painting walls and trying to buy some carpet.

The stand out silly job of the night was...

40 year old male who'd drank some water and some of the water went down 'the wrong tube', so he coughed and spluttered a bit and his family called an ambulance.

I got it as 'difficulty in breathing'.

Raced, at high speed, across town (with all the dangers that this involves) to find him unsurprisingly fully recovered.

Quick check to make sure he hadn't suffered a stroke (because that can muck up your swallowing function), and then I was on my way.

Back across town at exceedingly high speed for a seven year old asthmatic.

(I do love smelling the burning brake pads when you hop out the car at your destination).

How do you reach the age of 40 without coughing on a drink? I mean, I nearly choked on my tea when I saw this posting., and that was just today.
