Title: To all those reading this site at 0145hrs
Post by: Leftie on June 05, 2008, 02:53:40 am
Yep, I can't get to sleep either.

Why?

I'm worrying about my 35yro motor getting there because things that are straight forward, are not! - trunnions, UJ's, battery discharge, ripped hood (not important but).

If I have to get there on a lowloader, I will. And it will be driving around LM. What can't be fixed here, will be fixed at LM. Boot full of spares and full service kit. With room tent, sleeping bag and chair.

But, to hell with it, it's going............................................

Can't sleep either!

Worrying that I have forgotten something fundamental like tickets, ferries etc.

Hmmmm, maybe I should tell the missus that I won't be here for a few days next week??

Me too, spent all night thinking if I have put the seals in the right way round in the Alfa's servo, if I switched the compressor off, if the sills will turn up in time etc. 
 Then had a dream that LM had been moved to Knockhill and was being eaten by midges. Then awoke with the shock that I have left my wallet outside the workshop on a car bonnet! So at 4:25 this morning I went to work. The neighbours will lynch me when I get home for firing up the Mustang at that time in a morning!
 Tired.

I had that problem as well, trying to remember if I have everything done. I was sure I'd forgot something and then I remembered. I have'nt finished installing my wifes new kitchen so I'm away for the week leaving her and the kids with 4 walls, 3 plastered, 1 not and a ceiling that needs plastering and nothing else in the kitchen. I think I'm in the bad books. Not for the first time though.

Does your wife not realise what you have to put up with for nine days, no proper toilet, showers, kitchen or laundry facilities, at least she has got four walls and a ceiling, they can be really selfish some times ;D

I haven't slept in weeks ruminating whether they'll have loaded enough Champers for my USAir flight over.

Ruminating - isn't that what Friesians do Dave?  Good to see you and your old fart of a brother are heading east.  ;D

I think the last time I ruminated, it was in the bathroom, and my girlfriend caught me. Pretty embarrassing for all, let me tell ya. :)
I can't sleep either, so I keep trying to read up on anything Le Mans related stuff, it's my first time going this year.

Ref. The Passport... tell him to ring them constantly, all day every day, get a fax number from them and fax them too.
I take its renewal of passport and not visa issues?

I might be in a similar situation: I'm driving my second beater car, a 1992 BMW 520. I'm hoping it's got one last good run left in her! She's carrying 4 people for this 8 hr trip, and valuable drinks in the trunk... :o

Good Luck... he dont know what he's missing out on, but if you can prise him from the arms of his lover the problem is easily sorted.
A. When he has passed out, get his phone and bluetooth all the naughty pics to anyone accepting.
B. When he has passed out, Find Gimpy and get some special shots, on his phone of course..

Once A or B fit Facebook etc... no GF worries >:D

Homework!  ???


Finished my last electrical exam last night, have spent the last week revising very very hard, that’s why I have not been on the site much, if at all recently.  ;D

So no homework for me..........................

Well not until I have to study harder for the re-sit in Sept.  ::)

By the way, what colour is the CPC?

Stuff that - where's the beer!


Title: Re: To all those reading this site at 0145hrs
Post by: Doris on June 06, 2008, 09:33:14 am

Homework!  ???


Yep - this is what I'm currently working on ...

1: Identify the correct treatment procedures for the range of injuries listed below:

•   Achilles Tendinitis

•   Plantar Fasciitis

•   Chondromalacia patellae (CMP)

•   Runner’s Knee

•   Piriformis Syndrome

•   Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

•   Lateral & Medial Epicondylitis (Tennis & Golfers Elbow)

2: Identify the treatment modalities used in rehabilitation and explain the relationship of stages of injury to appropriate treatments and exercises.

??? ??? ???

Any ideas?

•   Plantar Fasciitis - Think he was a teacher at my school/borstal years ago  ;D

After trying to get my brain working, reading info is one thing, taking it in, understanding it and put it into to pratice is another thing!

Also reading the question correctly helps, - Last nigth I did well, put down the right answer - pity the question was wrong! - several times!

Oh well.

So good luck on your work- get you a few beers at LM.

Hi Doris,
I think I've had most of those, or may be getting them soon, I forget which.
Anyway, I've found that a bottle of cheap whiskey followed by a shot of phenolphthalein (a very aggressive laxative, with the added bonus of been a ph indicator, 1:1 with lime cordial is usually best) and 20 minutes in an industrial tumble drier usually does the trick.
You used to be able to get this on BUPA, but they've gone all soft these days.

Knowing how the average brain works on the CA medical advisory team, I suspect Mr Brown planned to apply it to the patient's nether regions by way of distraction from the other injuries!!  ::)
