Yeah you get stat sick pay unless your job gives you full sick pay. I've been off sick for just over a week, had a bad virus thats just knocked me down like a feather. Went to dr and explained that it was kicking my ass. Told him about my drugs (heavy duty immune suppressants) and as well as having had glandular fever and he sorta gasped a little bit and said any wonder you're struggling, signed me a sick note. So ive spent all week couch surfing. First day i go out to get some vital things i need. Car breaks down. Get her to kwik fit and they took it in straight away and said it needs a new drop link. Luckily not expensive! But just what you need when you're trying to recover. Luckily my mum swooped in and took me for tea. Wasn't particularly upset, just bloody tired and sore. Thankfully i get sick pay, i'd be snookered without it :/

What a lovely photo!

Aw daft i'm so sorry Do you think you'll be able to stay friends?

My wee sparks is still suffering so much, its the worst knowing you can't really do anything for them with a cold, they just have to ride it out.

Aye its the only medical emergency i can think of involving catheters / retention. The example i see the most often is in elderly folk who already have a catheter. It can fail (block dislodge etc) and then it stops the flow, but of course your body still processes your urine and it backs up into places it shouldn't normally be (back into your kidney) and it is typically a medical emergency and has to be sorted out within a short time-frame. I hope its just a minor infection or something brewing in your system (isnt it lovely being female lol) and nothing else! Are you feeling any better now? -- I am also feeling a bit worse for wear, after 7 years, my meds are absolutely hammering me into the ground. Get a cold and it floors me. Ugggggggggggggh. And my poor kitty is sick too :-(

My wee handsome boy, Sparky. He has FIV and hes sick so much Currently has a really bad cat cold but hes being a wee darlin. Very snuffly lol

Found out things that were said to this friend (turns out he doesn't like him that much either) basically the way he talked about me i was a cheap shag (legs and an arse that could crack walnuts) then he goes n gobs off in my direction about something completely unrelated and annoys me even more. Don't be friends with exes >___>

You must have had a distended bladder, thats quite serious! Feel better soon m'love xo

the worst 4 words you can hear from a potential date.... "i know your ex"

<3 to @Iun If you aren't happy you know you need to do the right thing love.

It took this long?

I am aware of vegetables thank you. I was talking about meals when eating out, vegetables/salad are not a typical main meal (especially where i live)... 99% of sauces and gravies, salad dressings are in fact full of wheat&gluten, eating out or cooking at home. Also I'm pretty sure eating a rounded diet including SOME rice and potatoes is in fact good for you. Too many calories cause weight gain not too many potatoes.

thrusters, yuuuuuck. I've decided to drop wheat out of my diet again, my migraines have really been flaring up badly and ive done exclusion diets and migraine diaries that seem to indicate that wheat is a huge part in it. See if it helps. Have been struggling a lot with diet lately (sine my birthday earlier this month) and have gained a bit of weight back. Managing to catch a grip of myself and i have lost a little bit over the past week. I find without wheat i dont really get cravings anywhere near as much and i lose weight by default, so hoping it works out. I hate going wheat free (its essentially gluten free) as its soo bloody inconvenient when you eat out. Pretty much reduced to chips/potatoes/rice, and plain meat

You have your body and its the only one you're gonna have, so damn right you should love it! My albino shade skin is admiring yours

all the yessssss!

bloody hell, so sad

memoriessssss #stillagurn

Used to be very anti social. But my job pushed me into being social all the time. I'm not shy or unsure of what to say, i just don't LIKE people. I used to point blank avoid people and social situations, but now I'm a lot more willing. My colleague told me once that shes seen me turn into a completely different person over the years. I'm a social introvert.

no boneless chicken for me mwuhahaha

According to samknowsbroadband - "You are approximately 0 metres from the exchange. Note that this is the straight line distance - the actual cable length will be longer!" I AM the exchange....! The guy at plusnet compared the speeds at my old address and what I was to expect at new. Old was 15mb give or take, that was pretty dead on (about a mile from the BIG exchange in ballymena) He said "oh youll get BETTER speeds at your new address" and i was like nah mate wise up @nekunando has terrible internet! but yeah turns out i have approx 20mb. I could have got fibre in ballymena, but not here. But TBH 20mb is enough for me just on my own... i'm not huge on downloading etc.
