Carry on Matron

 Carry on Nurse

Shocking

It was shocking

I have said for years, and stand by my words, what the NHS needs is more doctors and nurses, and less middle management. One of the big drains in funding the NHS is the growth of management, this task until the 80's was done by the Matron

 My lump is a Lipoma

Hospital Appointment

 A lump on my neck

By this time on Friday the 13th, I should be back on the ward at Bristol Royal Infirmary, having had the operation to remove the lipoma on my neck.

I am not being released on the day, the surgeons have to be certain the lump is fully drained, there is a remote possibility, the lump may have a few cancer cells.

Leon Errol is the star

 It is time for some Comedy

Lupe Velez

Mexican Spitfire

Though the series is based around Lupe Velez's titular character, the real star is Leon Errol who has a double role as Uncle Max, and Lord Effingham, his lookalike.

I am enjoying the films, even if the plot is repeated. Lupe threatens to get a divorce, goes into a tantrum, while the plot revolves around the confusion caused by Lord Effingham, and Uncle Max looking the same.

From the third film, there is a new husband, this is because the original was only signed for three films, as the studio thought the series wouldn't last, it lasted for six films.

A new record has been set

The Thriving Blog

I failed as a writer of books, yet my blog is making a comeback. After weeks of stuggling for readers, with help from readers in USA, Singapore, Germany, and Brazil, the reader figures passed 2K yesterday. As usual, the UK was in the peleton, the group of lesser countries

I hope soon to be able to arouse the feelings of my friend, Svitlana, in Didcot.

We get on well during our online chat sessions, even if they are short as I have a cash shortage at the moment.

I am hoping, if we meet (nothing is certain), in April, the passion we have online can become passions in person, so we can turn our friendship into a relationship lasting years

You have to laugh

 Friday the 13th

My Lipoma

Freaky Friday

I was so happy to hear my lipoma will removed on Friday, I didn't realise it would be the 13th, is that an omen?

I shall be going in on Friday morning, and returning on Saturday morning

Svitlana is the only lady for me

By Saturday afternoon, I should be home after the operation to remove my lipoma. This will be a great relief for my lady friend, Svitlana, who has been concerned about the operation for months, each evening she asks when will it be removed?

It will be odd, the lump has been there for months, it does make sleep difficult, but I have been a bad sleeper since my teens.

This marks the beginning of a new era for me, not only an improvement in my health, but also in my romance
