Thank you
@ComtesseRose for the new thread and congrats to
@Lady Avonlea for naming.
Enjoy your concert
@ComtesseRose full report on the tattler desk in the morning please.
I realise now that I was remiss with my thanks on the last thread, so thank you to all. You keep me amused and saine.
I find that I can't watch
Despicable fanny and
Thrush, or in fact any of the dump crew, for more than a couple of seconds at a time. So all you tattlers, your input is excellent. I thank each and everyone of you for taking one for the team.
@JackSpratt her fans may not keep shelling out much longer. Not because the penny's dropped but because the old fools have dropped dead! She will see them in their graves before she gives up the grift, so callous is she.
Good to hear you are having a break in the rain and better weather is arriving for you. We are definitely moving into summer. Last couple of days tapping on 30° which is my perfect summer temperature. Helps stop all the aches and pains!
As happenstance would have it I was in Pezenas last week. No Jarvis' or Richmonds were spotted as I believe all had left the country or were out of the country at that point. All the overpriced shit shops, sorry brocunts, were open. They will certainly be a magnet for the gruesome twosome. We looked for a restaurant to eat but they were all busy with very pale skinned brits in pastel coloured clothing so we gave it a swerve and headed back to Béziers for a quick lunch on the allées Paul Riquet. Not Le Cristal. I was recently informed that not only was this establishment popular with brits and the local belligerent population but also with all the winos as the bar will continue serving them when other bars won't. Now who did we see there recently who appears to drink a lot, always with a glass in hand... hmm.
I actually had the most amazing week. I saw the new orthopaedic surgeon and he has said that a new knee prosthesis is an absolute must. The interior is completely fucked and no amount of cortisone or hyaluronic acid will give any relief. But only half knee as the exterior side is normal and intact. I could have jumped up and kissed him. I'm booked in for early July!
Yesterday, I saw the new rhumatalogue. OMG, what a star. He concurred with the orthopaedic surgeon that the interior of the knee is completely fucked and that while injections may bring some relief it's not the solution. So everything is moving forward in the right direction. I fully intend walking another stretch of the Puglian aqueduct and swimming in the Ionian sea again later on this year. My goals.
So my dear
@JackSpratt and all other tattlers with health issues keep pushing forward and insist upon 2nd, 3rd or even 4th opinions. The two so-called "specialists" I saw previously were just quacks, in no way concerned for the health of their patient. Just getting the cash in. They were happy to condemn me to a life of invalidity, in 5 years time when they wanted to operate I would be 68 by which time no doubt the rest of my mobility would have gone along with my mental health.
So I wish to all you hags, hellhounds, witches, bitches and trolls the good fortune that I have recently received. Today is my birthday and as my people have to be at work during the day I have you guys to keep me company
Geminis rock
Tattle on.
