Have a good one

New Year resolutions for 2020

1. Use phone torch when walking in dark places

2. Learn to use phone torch

3. Call less ambulances

4. Don’t eat oysters (smashed that one)

5. Stop making silly faces in meetings at work I’m meant to be chairing.

6. Remember to not speak with my pets’ voices in supermarkets

7. And restaurants

8. Stop giving other drivers rude names

9. Gracefully accept the lack of takeaway deliveries to rural areas and stop stalking multi-national takeaway chains on Social Media. Or the phone.

10. Appreciate that going shopping without changing from chicken cleaning may be perceived as ‘weird old woman covered in straw and what might be mud...’

Happy New Year all of you lovely people, and a happy (maybe a smidge less) to those not so lovely. 🥂🥂🥂🍾🍾🍾 (that booze is mine, hands off)

[SpiritoftheFloyd]

Ha Ha Love it! Happy New Year

Happy New Year Sillyfroggy

Please keep sharing your adventures with us all.

I have have cried with laughter over a few already over the last year 😂

No actually the port is mine!

[Gladwyn in reply to Milkfairy]

My new resolution is to avoid ladies wearing straw and what looks like mud 💩lol and also to grimly hang on to my bottles of booze 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾 and surrender them to no one under any circumstance. 😡😖😫😷

[Sunnie2day]

When you smash No.2 could you share the knowledge? Genius list of resolutions, after No.2, I love 8 and 10 - especially No.10!

[Milkfairy Heart Star]

I have learned No.2

I have had to use my phone torch to help a nurse shove a cannula in my vein in the middle of the night and a doctor wanting to take an arterial blood sample ( that really hurt) as the light by my bed didn't work

[SpiritoftheFloyd in reply to Milkfairy]

Good grief - sounds like you were in a field hospital in a war zone!

[Gladwyn in reply to Milkfairy]

Ouch! That must have hurt!

Happy new Year 😀

[Heythrop51 in reply to Milkfairy]

You weren't recording MASH were you?

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Heythrop51]

Bed 22 opposite the loo in a north London hospital .

The light was still not working 4 months later when I was admitted again to the very same bed!

[Heythrop51 in reply to Milkfairy]

P.S. Happy New Year!

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Heythrop51]

Happy New Year to you too.

[Hidden]

😂😂😂

[Heythrop51]

Happy New Year! Maybe PJs for shopping?

[Bagrat]

Love this thread. Happy New Year all and sundry. My rather boring and in some cases foolhardy resolution is to stop researching POSSIBLE interactions of my new med with well established ones and believe Consultants are wiser than me and the BNF should be sufficient!!!

[Sunnie2day in reply to Bagrat]

BNF?

[SpiritoftheFloyd in reply to Sunnie2day]

I worked there for a short period of time - BNF - British Nuclear Fuels

[Sunnie2day in reply to SpiritoftheFloyd]

Well I'm having a 'senior moment' - what would BNF have to do with a heart condition? (fully prepared here to be embarrassed at my ignorance when you reply )

[Hidden in reply to Sunnie2day]

I might be foreshadowing the reply, but I would put my left non- dominant circumflex artery ( the one that still works) on it’s meant to say BHF, as in British Heart Foundation.

[Bagrat in reply to Hidden]

Nope

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to SpiritoftheFloyd]

BNF

British National Formulary?

Every pharmacist's favourite publication

[Sunnie2day in reply to Milkfairy]

Now that really makes sense, thank-you! (Now added to my growing list of abbreviations and acronyms)

[Hidden in reply to Milkfairy]

Clever clogs 😏

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Hidden]

We will have to see what Bagrat says.....😊

[Hidden in reply to Milkfairy]

I actually meant to put what you put but it accidentally autocorrected to BHF. So we’ll call it even stevens 😬

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Hidden]

Haha😂

[Bagrat in reply to Milkfairy]

Correct. British National Formulary And every nurse's too. Nurses are very bad using abbreviations. A famous unintelligible one written by night nurse on urology ward

HNPU DNT. I will return later to enlighten anyone interested

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Bagrat]

My response was based on my knowledge that you are a former nurse.

HNPU - Has Not Passed Urine?

DNT -Did Not Test?

Nurse trying to explain why no urine sample was tested?

[Bagrat in reply to Milkfairy]

Milkfairy Right on the first bit alas second more obscure!

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Bagrat]

Did Not Try...

Do Not treat..

Oh now I want to know!

[Bagrat in reply to Milkfairy]

Milkfairy yay Did not try!! We had no idea what she meant till her next shift!!!

[Milkfairy Heart Star in reply to Bagrat]

Hooray!

Next we must try and crack the code of NHS speak.....

[Bagrat in reply to SpiritoftheFloyd]

Not on this occasion!

[cowparsley]

Loved your list Silly froggie,mine is much more mundane but probably impossible to keep.Can`t teach an old dog new tricks x

[Janma123]

Happy New Year Sillyfroggy. Love the resolutions especially no 10! I have seen me kick my boots off at our village shop door and put them on again when I left!

[LaceyLady]

Happy New Year to you too. I’m glad I’m not the only nutty one who does funny voices 😂
