    Animal is a Ram reacted to therams69 in Derby County Flags   
    Ahhh Graz square ... It lashed it down about 10 minutes later ... As you can see from the clouds. In the ground the rain was hard and it took 2 of us to carry the big flag across the pitch, weighed about 30 odd kgs as opposed to its normal 15kg.
    This led us to a problem as were flying home the next day and no where to dry out in our hotel room. We were flying back from Bratislava so went to the airport early and thankfully it was hot and sunny there so we laid the flag out at the airport to dry for an hour or so. Airport officials ended up coming to speak to us to see what we were protesting about. Thankfully she spoke good English.
    Ended well and the flag dried really well saving us a massive excess baggage charge!

    This is the exit of the petrol station in Mickleover.

    How many times must I queue up behind someone (at times it can be hard to get a gap in traffic here) who's gone down the middle, with no indication of which way they are going to leave? Or even more stupidly...
    Just the other day I was leaving the station, headed right. There was a car fully on the left hand side (albeit with no indicator on), so I pulled up alongside him, a few seconds later... beep, beep, honk, the sound of muffled shouting and window-tapping tapping as the irate man in the car to my left was effing and blinding to his heart's content about me supposedly blocking him from exiting the petrol station. Dumb ****!
    It didn't annoy me, but I did nearly piss myself laughing at him. I don't need any damp patches in my pants when I'm off to work, thankyouverymuch!

    "New and improved!"
    How can it be both?
    If its new, its not the same as the old one.
    If its improved, its not new.

    My condolences, reveldevil.
    To echo your post - all the way through my 'father in law''s care so far, the doctors have been p*ss poor - but the support from nurses, porters, etc. has been first class

    My mother in law passed away yesterday evening, when it's less raw I'll maybe post more on the subject of end of life care, and the frankly shocking way some doctors treated her towards the end.
    One thing I will say, the care and support shown by the nursing staff at the hospital, not just to her, but the family has made a difficult time so much easier.
    I've heard them called angels many times in the past, but having witnessed the care they provide first hand, it's an appropriate tag.
    Truly a credit to the NHS, each and every one of them .

    PC games have often been modified (modded) to change the base game, usually to add/remove/replace content or make it more of a challenge. Or in Skyrim's case.. replace dragons with Thomas the Tank.
    Historically, its only been PC games purely because its that much easier to get at the files and structure behind the game, whereas console games have it all locked away on a disc. However due to the popularity, and many console users asking for it, its becoming more prevalent.
    Does this clear it up, oldie?

    So happy about the Skyrim news, mainly because being a console gamer, I've never had the chance to play with mods. I honestly think that Skyrim is the best game I've ever played, as the vastness of the world, the amount of quests you can do and the tendency to always surprise you no matter how long you've been playing, make it an absolutely fantastic experience. For years I've been envious of all the PC gamers with their mods, now it's time for consoles to get their turn?.

    Sorry if this upsets anyone, but I just felt I had to get it down somewhere and this felt the best place for it. I was also wondering if there was anyone else who had been through similar, who could share their experience of the big C.
    It's been a tough month.
    My girlfriend's dad was diagnosed with lung cancer about a month ago. Since then its been setbacks and balls ups all over.
    Monday, he was due to have his lung removed, after a bronchoscopy, at Nottingham City Hospital. They then had to refill a lengthy consent form out because the original one was for a child, anaesthetist needed him to have an echocardiogram at short notice, thus turning a 8.00am procedure start into a 12.30pm start.
    At about 6, we then had the news that they couldn't remove the lung, as the size and location made it more risky than they first thought. Quite why this didn't show on the bronchoscopy, or any of the numerous CT/PET is beyond my knowledge. He will now be referred back to the Derby oncologist for a chemo/radiotherapy to shrink the tumour, to then have a second attempt at removing the lung.
    To make matters worse, having already incised from shoulder to hip on his back, they then got his pain relieving epidural wrong.
    We are gutted, confused, angry, and losing heart. Fortunately, he isn't, bless him.
