It has just dawned on me that, in this fast moving message board world, I've been stuck in my puritan id for longer than I needed to be. The rampantness that struck us low for a while there has passed, and it's time to embrace the new Stub sexiness.

I'll drink to that!
Incidentally - Earlier on this year I asked who was "huggable" - I'm interested in the etiquette of hugging now - as in 'how long should a hug go on for' 'cos a hug good-bye to Best Beloved's 43yo aunt went on for a bit of a suspiciously long time for a happily-with-5children-married type person!
Still - perhaps she's just a very huggy person!?

I don't really do hugs to friends and lesser relatives. I hug Mr. E. of course, in fact quite a lot lately as he's due to go into hospital tomorrow for an angiogram and, although he doesn't seem worried, I am a bit worked up about it. Anyhow, I also hug my grandchildren but they usually squirm away unless my vice-like grip stops them. My daughter and son get hugs and son-in-law now he's part of the family. My brother and his mob also, and my little mother-in-law too, although she's very tiny and I'm always frightened I might squeeze too hard.

Me too. Have a hug anyway, ev. We've just had the shaving of the groinal area - apparently the hospital will do it for you if you're unable to do it yourself. Mr. E. now looks like a porn star. [ The groin has to be hair-free because they insert a catheter into the artery there. Someone pick up Patrick and Alpha ] |

I'm sure Mr E will be delighted to know that discussions of his groin has been plastered all over a message board! I've already told him that you all wish him well! I took him in at 8 am and he was home here by 1pm. He fairly skipped in to the cardiac department when he saw the two young nurses who would be looking after him. The angiogram showed that he needs to have angioplasty, which means he goes back in a few weeks time and has a stent fitted into a narrowed artery. We were hoping that it wouldn't come to that, but I suppose it's preferable to major open heart surgery! It's quite a common procedure apparently. It will take him about 4 weeks recovery at home, so I shall have to hire a nurses uniform. ;D At the moment, he's reclining on the sofa with his leg up. He's a bit sore and says (in his words) that he feels like he's been kicked in the nuts by a donkey. |

Stick a fork in his eye. That will take his attention away from the pain in his groin. |

When you run out of body parts to abuse, tell him you're leaving him and that will take his mind of all of it . . . |

Who'd have thought that you'd have two Irish Nurses as well! |
