   PM: this [points to shoulder in collar and cuff]
   PA: are you taking any other medication?
   PM: no [complete lie)

   PM: yes
   PA: you mustn't take them for more than 4 days

   It's all a bit Phil Collins for me. I say the word, oh!, co-co-co-damol.

   Plucky me old chum. I've got 7 boxes of the stuff. Went to the docs about my DDD, and rather than send me for x-rays to check it's progress like he's supposed to, he packed me off home with an enormous prescription for Co-codamol.

   I'm thinking of setting up a stall outside the Bingo to sell it off.

   i should be ok, thanks, jeni, my treasure. i have repeat prescriptions for the 'strong' version of co-codamol but water them down by taking one strong one and one 'over the counter' one. i am so glad i didn't try to explain that to the pharmacist or i would no doubt be banged up in cardiff jail by now. hope all the jenis are well.

   Apart from being blown all over the place by the high winds, drenched by the driving sleet, and generally very pissed off at the "spring" weather, we're all fine thanks Plucky.
   Hope the shoulder is healing well, and the Munkys are good.

   Coco-Damol, sounds like a French mime artist. You should have mimed your response Plucky.

   Did they ask if you might be pregnant, Mr Munky?

    ibuprofen mixed with alcohol works wonders for back pain I find.

    No, Sauce, they didn't ask me if I was pregnant. It's quite rare in men, really. Co-codamol and alcohol are pleasant, Mr Jez.

    No disrespect, Mr Gor, but the Bachelors were my least favourite songsters of all time but I loved your line. I've never seen the point of mime, Mr Hack - especially that famous mime-artist, from France, with the white face. [Please note, in the current climate, that I mean 'white produced by cosmetics', not Caucasian.]

    I hope everyone is well tonight and that I don't fall out of bed, again, tonight. Mrs Munky wondered where I had gone, last night and I was face-down on the floor, wondering how to get up. What an odd life.

    You weren't singing Holbeck Hall Blues in your sleep by any chance were you plucky?

    No, Mr Gor. I was, rightly, told off about my language in that one by Mr Crow and have deleted it from the 'Munky Songbook'. It will be no great loss, I think. You, on the other hand, produced a moving blues-anthem, which I think will long be remembered. I may be wrong.

    In the language of this thread, Plucky, I'm an Aspirin' song-writer. Coat...

    If you were a woman, Mr Gor, I would call you my heroin.

    If I were a woman, Mr Munky, I'd be in the kitchen, thinking 'I opiate all his dinner.'

    Yes, he's the one, Mr Umpire. I never understood him at all. My loss, I am sure.

    Probably, Mr Hack. I will take a Valium and lie down in a darkened room, later on. Otherwise (apart from my bleedin' shoulder) I am fine. I hope that all is well with you.
