Hope she's feeling better soon.
We should be there. Does anyone know if you can you pay to camp for the weekend at the gates? We have booked the older Disco and the Series 3 in for MOT's so any parts can be purchased. We have a few bits for the Lightweight to get and will probably be purchasing new tyres for the newer Disco...so looks like an expensive weekend!!!

bugger. Pass on my regards, please... do they know why?
Mind, 's a very difficult call. If the condition isn't life-threatening and isn't likely to get worse, do you treat it and have a high risk of killing the unborn child? what level of risk is "acceptable"? 5%? 10%? 50%? For some people, any risk is unacceptable where human life is concerned. Personally, I'd say that if the risks to the mother are higher than those to the unborn infant, you have to treat the mother and let the infant take its chance, but that's just my take.
Not that I disagree with the general statement that the NHS these days is becoming useless...
If my own father to be experiences are similar I'd imagine it's baby putting some pressure down on nerves which is causing the problem. If the expresions on Mrs D's faces at the time are owt to go by I'd imagine it feels like a kick in the balls where the pain doesn't subside... without the balls bit of course IYSWIM. Ladies bodies also contort alot in readiness for the arrival.
Of course the truth is that diluting the active ingredient, often something relatively commonplace like sodium chloride, to the point where it is statistically unlikely that even a molecule of the original is left fantastically empowers the now non-present active agent into an all reaching cure all.
You're not convinced? Yeah. I'm having trouble too....
We'll be there in the 101 this time as he is on the road this year :-) and I will remember to bring hats as last year we had to buy them at the show!
Last week we had a successful trip to Ireland including a day at the Duncannon Show. The clevis pin came off the end of the brake cable, so Steve was driving with an improvised hand throttle for a few days and LPG was not as easy to find as we had been led to believe, but a good trip and the Duncannon Show is to be highly recommended - we intend to go back next year and stay for the whole event. Bugger the boys missing a day from school, it's a highly educational event with re-enactors from the Romans to modern day, with a strong element of WW2.
Hence my comments about merely thinking about homeopathy being a more powerful cure. Drowning homeopaths would surely cure all evils according to their logic, we should start right away!
Drowning homeopaths would be an effective cure for some diseases, in that the NHS would be able to spend the money they were demanding on effective cures instead.. Also "water memory" would come into it, in that the memory of throwing them into the water would certainly make a lot of people feel better.
That may well be the case, but if the school doesn't agree you can get into the shit these days, rules introduced due to those who didn't give a shit taking their kids to spain for a few weeks or so then expecting the school to make special arrangements for them to catch up with the lessons.
I doubt they'd have a problem with one day on a visit like yours, sounds like making history fun, and how could a school argue with that ;-)
I have to say that the boys' school has been quite understanding of the type of trips we do and they have been given permission in the past - they know that we don't go to an all inclusive complex and never stick our noses out into the local area. Two years ago we had an Air & Space themed trip to the US, and last October it was "experience a hurricane first hand" - definitely educational! Even beach holidays usually include investigating rockpools, crabs and other fauna.
We hope to be rolling shortly after school closes, not ideal time to trek through brum but the slower moving traffic will actually help as were taking the Caravan too with Morph.
What day are people going on? Some of you seem to be staying for the whole thing, if I can make it then Saturday would hopefully be less crowded due to a footy match of some kind being played.

just got back from casualty again. This time I got in from work, found her sprawled on the floor with one leg a lovely blue colour, cold and clammy, and she had no bladder control.......
Chiropracter had made a home visit, found her on the floor, did his stuff and left her on the floor.... It was after that that bladder control went...
Ambulance came after phoning NHS Direct, who were really good actually, can recommend that phone service after today. Paramedics whacked her onto entenox, and they were concerned about the blue leg etc.
1 hour after arriving at hospital a doctor finally comes along and inspects her, expresses concern that it is a broken hip, and then says that they can't xray because of the baby. Then he says its only a muscle problem, and there is nothing they can do, have a couple of paracetamol, and here's a porter to help you out..... All this concern about painkillers and xrays damaging the baby, but nobody actually checked the baby, bearing in mind she had fallen over......Doctor spoke about 2 words of english....
My friend last year had his knees operated on, and got an infection which caused it to swell up. Casualty told him it was nothing to be worried about, 36 hours later he was in IC with blood poisoning, and having to have his knee operated on to wash out the toxins......
