Random Irritations

[Swango1980]

Whether you were running or walking seems immaterial to me.
At some point you would need to pass the people going in the opposite direction.
If the path was not wide enough for 3 people to fit then either someone has to go into the road or the 2 people need to form a single line to allow enough room for the other person to use the path as well.

If the 2 people don’t do that then in my opinion they are rude/selfish or both.

Indeed. I have the same frustration when I'm a walker as well. It just hits harder when I'm running.

Rotator cuff tear which has caused now 3 lots of frozen shoulder and arthritis which has spurs on humeral head and I got loose bodies in some groove. Am now back on a 4 month list again to see a consultant.

This is what i'm worried about! Got another appointment tomorrow for referral to rehab specialist which means I can finally get my scans done. Really don't want it to be anything long term but I feel that is overly optimistic as this has been going on for nearly 6 months already

Sincerely hope all goes well for you. Apart from 2 lots of about 2-3 months, I have lost nearly 5 years of golf.

Resurfacing work in our club car park going on and it’s disorganised chaos. The idiots have left some parking down the front, wide enough for a car to get along and to drive in to a space. But they’ve not left any space to turn once they area is full.
As it’s a blind area from the entrance you don’t know it’s full until you get in to the problem area. So you’re left trying to reverse slalom round a blind bend with no one providing any assistance.

Club notice said that someone would be doing “Traffic Management Duties” but clearly not.

I don’t mind that the work is being done, it did need fixing but jebus they’ve made a mess of the remaining parking.

As an aside, I did laugh that the resurfacing is just pouring about a 50mm layer of tar on top of the old stuff and rolling it. Next time we’ll have no kerbs left as the road will be the same height.

Just had a tooth out. A biggie that had root canal work on it a good few years ago. It was inevitable but it did not come away easily and I feel thoroughly beaten up. Worse thing, no hot food or drinks for 24hrs to let the gum heal.

I was recommended to take paracetamol but to also dissolvable asprin. Swill the asprin around the mouth. No problem with taking both at the same time. Confirm with a pharmacist if you’re unsure.

Our local tennis club is having two courts re-done. During the awful weather they team doing it have been there every day. They are now up to the point where the new all weather surface can be laid. Everything is ready. Rolls of stuff on the newly surfaced tarmac all ready to be unwrapped and laid. Courts marked out ready. The club told a full team would be there today. Beautiful day. Are they there? Nope!
Who's thinking they are all in a beer garden somewhere? LOL

I had to take my dad to a dentist on Saturday, over in Birmingham. Must've been a special clinic because everybody was having teeth out, one by one they came out of the room absolutely flying, as they'd all been sedated, not fully knocked out but enough to make them not feel it, and be a bit woozy.

When it was my dad's turn, he came out half asleep and just bobbing about in his chair, not really all there. The dentist asked how West Brom had got on, as he could see I was looking at the result...
Quick as a flash, my old man shouted out, "they lost 2-1," and then burst into laughter.

At least it got us out of there quicker.

I’m sure a dentist knows their stuff. But, aspirin thins blood, I would not do that until the bleeding, if you have any, has stopped.

No swilling around allowed yet. I've taken my first paracetamol, after 24hrs they recommend swilling salt water. I suspect I could do the dissolvable aspirin at that point. It's one of the big teeth at the back so the hole is a decent size. They need the blood not to leak so I have to let nature do its bit for the next 24hrs, give it a bit of assistance after that.
