Ausjack cobba, I now have been dry for 5 months (by dr orders not by choice!) and looks like I will be stayin' that way for the foreseeable future - so we will both have to watch someone else

but happy to yard next time I am in Grafton - I do get up that way on occasion.
I got home from hospital late yesterday. One of the side effects of the meds I am on is very little sleep - average is around 20mins a night at present. They tried some heavy sleeping tabs in hospital and they didn't work - I was even put under for one of the procedures and I woke I right in the middle! I came out into recovery and there were people there who had been in recovery for over an hour and they still could not keep there eyes open - one poor dear fell asleep drinking a cup or water and poured it all over herself and still didn't wake up - I had to tell the nurse to help her - anyway, I came out of the OR wide away and bright as a button... so here I am after 20mins sleep back on the net... what a sad sad excuse I am... anyway, I digress...
I just wanted to say a big thanks to my CCF family for the kind words and wishes and the comments that made me smile, and the encouragement to raid the cashiers desk! It helped a lot. Thanks all, this really is a family!
ps. because it was Friday and I was going home I got bold and told the cashier I needed to stock up for the vending machine raids over the weekend (small fib, sorry)... I completely cleaned them out! they even gave me some 50c rolls! (well, not gave, I did hand over paper for them!)
And remember, wherever you are, YOU CAN NOODLE!
