Jesus!!!
Many years ago I worked with a lad who'd go out every weekend, get drunk and actually go looking for fights, he was pretty handy to be fair but it was always going to end badly, he got in a fight one Saturday night and wasn't at work on the following Monday, turned out he picked a fight with a couple of proper wronguns who beat him so badly they put him in a coma, he survived but was never the same, he didn't come back to work as he was blind in one eye from it.
That is so bad & sad. As pi55ed as I am.. only 18 months ago , a 6’4 lad worked for me, he wasn’t a drinker really, a proper gentle giant ( welling up here ) he went out on a Saturday night and got punched.. banged head on pavement.. coma. F*ckin9 gutted. What a lovely lad! Sh!t.. can barely see my screen now Many years ago I worked with a lad who'd go out every weekend, get drunk and actually go looking for fights, he was pretty handy to be fair but it was always going to end badly, he got in a fight one Saturday night and wasn't at work on the following Monday, turned out he picked a fight with a couple of proper wronguns who beat him so badly they put him in a coma, he survived but was never the same, he didn't come back to work as he was blind in one eye from it.

Believe me as a radiographer that is fairly mild to some things I have seen.
Thank god I dont do general x-ray these days, I prefer to play with a mahoosive magnet
It does remind me of a tale though, at one point I ended up working 3 saturdays out of 4, and I x-rayed the same bloke on each Saturday night. I was seriously tempted to give him some good advice about keeping his gob shut and not pissing people off when he was drunk
My mum was a radiographer in the 1940’s when it was in its infancy and a lot of radiation was used, which actually explains a lot. MRI seems a lot safer where do you do it?Thank god I dont do general x-ray these days, I prefer to play with a mahoosive magnet

When I was a nibbo you went to Clarks for new shoes then watched your toes wiggling in the x-ray machine to see if the shoes fitted correctly. Not a still picture, wiggly toes, live x-rays. I glow on the dark but that's not important right now.DickyC said:

Ah, welcome BigBen, Cannonball run huh? Good, very good, now I'm sure you've signed all the necessary paperwork and signed all the waivers but just to be on the safe side, have you told anyone your here at Trivial Towers???
Well no, should I have done? I am worried nowDickyC said:

You had new shoes? You lucky lucky b
d!I had hand-me-downs from my uncle or odd ones that my gran found at jumble sales.
If they had holes in, I would make new linings out of Shredded Wheat dividers, but they would go all soggy in wet weather.
My Dad once bought us some of those new-fangled Phillips Stick-a-Soles.
They weren't as good as shoes.
Hi Folks, I made it back safely, I had a flashing red light stuck to my bum and a flashing headlamp on my... err... head!
But I didn't encounter any cars or other vehicles on the way home
The drivers were probably all still in the pubs getting a
holed.Little 'un ( Robbopoppetlet ) was good as gold, she is getting really chatty now she's turned two and loves unicorns, spiders, dollies, cars and Robbopops. Probably in that order.
Oh, and hot dog sausages and strawberries.
I gave her her bedtime bottle of milk, and then we brushed her teeth, then she chose the bedtime story about a spider. She nodded off before I did, about halfway through the story.
Pity, I wanted to know how it ends.
Aren't grandkids fantastic!
Nite nite Trivialites.
Sleep well, and don't have nightmares.

DICKY!!! WE'VE GOT A LIVE ONE OVER HERE!Morning all. Blustery day today. It’s washing day today, going to get the mangle out of the outhouse.
Glenners, nice you got to put your granddaughter to bed. Kids are great at that age, glad the penny farthing Dicky lent you made it.
The wife was up at 6 and off to her first car boot of the summer.
Radio 2 is gently wafting from the radio, it comes on every morning, and every morning I am reminded of how it makes me cringe.
Dicky, the little Save the Otter charity shop has a couple of code books in the window for sale.
They have ‘ Bro Code: how to do it right!
They have ‘ Green Cross Code: lets get that chicken across!
They have ‘ Polaris: launch codes and secondary target reprogramming!
They have ‘ Morse Code: beginners guide!
They have ‘ Computer Code: PASCAL programming!
They have ‘ coCODEmol!
All around 25p or less, they have a Zique Zigue Sputnik ( burn burn satellite) album that I’m rather keen on, looks like jam has been spilt on it.
They also have a bronze coloured Elvis wall clock, it was originally silver but came out of a heavy smokers house.
They have a good selection of Nintendo games, and ‘Now that’s what I call music’ Tapes.
Smells a bit in there, but only like the bus when it’s full of pensioners on pension day.

Code book. Code book. What have I done with the code book?
You can borrow my old one if you like, Dicky, but I think it's out of date.Magoo seems to have come over all emignatic with his porridge hearspeak.
I think he may have formed a renegade breakaway cypher group.
He's been living with the natives too long. Or perhaps the MX-5 has begun to affeffeffeffeffeffeffect him?
I think he said there'll be butchering today. What a carve-up!
And we've got a new initiate spreadeagled and shackled face down on the handcart, but no sign of Bobbers.
I have found the Ceremonial Sink Plunger and I'm waiting here in my orange balaclava, Silken Robes of Office and tap dancing wellies, but there's no sign of The Initiator General.
Has the fish finger sandwich thing gone to his head? Has he got ideas above his station? Is he planning on usurping Our Glorious Leader?
I don't know.
Oh.
Good morning all!
Lovely day for it.
A bit windy though...
Sorry about that.

S&M, have they got "Bad Head Codes add Ruddy Dozes" by Snotty "Kerchoo" Dripsnitch? Glenners, nice you got to put your granddaughter to bed. Kids are great at that age, glad the penny farthing Dicky lent you made it.

I think Dicky is looking for his 34th Edition of the TT Codebook.
I think I saw it last week, hanging from the nail in the airfield cludgie, suspended on a short ength of hairy binder twine.
I think Bomma may have hung it there when Battert had forgotten to order more rolls of Izal.
