snork: when something you read is so funny that you splutter (or nearly splutter) your lunch/coffee/false teeth across the screen and keyboard (trad., anon.)

Then Iā€™m not doing it right. You know the noise I mean: the snorting thatā€™s one of the indicators of a broken Gus.

I do; but I am not sure thatā€™s a snork. More like a snurkle.

Flumping now

I can only clean wot I can comfortably reach ATM, & I canā€™t contemplate steps.
The bathroom window is now clean, azziz my bedroom window.
Although there is obscured glass in the bathroom, I have a white embroidered voile curtain hanging there. I washed it last night, but havenā€™t yet re-hung it.

My bedroom is next door, at the back of the house, & could, in the dusk with the light behind them, be viewed by people 2 streets away, so there I have a cream lace curtain. I use tension rods for both, & have just managed to Piggle the bedroom one into place.

I can report todayā€™s excitement was drilling for canula insertion

Five tries in arms and eventually the eye candy Italian doctor listened to me and went for a foot

So I have a nice bandage over three plasters to keep it there

Any one know what a pick line is
?
That is the next job that they are threatening me with

Peripherally inserted central catheter. They sort of plumb you in more securely to an extended line: sounds awful but makes life a lot easier both for you and them.

And I am here to tell you that inhaling strong mouthwash is even less to be recommended than sneezing while using it. It makes just as much of a mess (well the resulting spluttering does) and it is a very long time before your nasal passages stop hurting. An experience never to be repeated.

Thanks Gus

I am just glad I have a canula but I have had worse than a pic line so Iā€™m prepared now

It would be far more sensible to have a PIC line, Twellsy. They have to be kept clean & flushed, but are very efficient, & save you being towsed about so much when you are poorly.

The ginsparrer always behaves beautifully in my experience
Slips bacon buttie the sparrer being pampered by the nurses whilst relaxing in the drip stand

A wash fevver fettle claw trim and file then a nice oiling of the fevvers while the sparrer sips Galway Hooker beer

You mucky lot Galway Hookers are sailing fishing boats
