footie joke Little David was in his 5th grade class when the teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up -- fireman, policeman, salesman, etc. David was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father. 'My father's an exotic dancer in a gay bar and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he'll go out to the alley with some guy and make love with him for money.' The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement. Hurriedly set the other children to work on some coloring, and took little David aside and asked him, 'Is that really true about your father?' 'No,' said David, 'He plays for Dundee but I was too embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids.'

True Friendship Are you tired of those sissy "friendship" poems that always sound good, But never actually come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship. You will see no cutesy little smiley faces on this card- Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship. 1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the hateful ba----d who made you sad. 2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile -- I will know you finally got laid. 4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get. 5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining. 6. When you are confused - I will use little words. 7 When you are sick - Stay the hell away from me until you are well - Again. I don't want whatever you have. 8. When you fall - I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass. 9 This is my oath.. I pledge it to the end. "Why?" you may ask; "because you are my friend". Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, But only you can feel the true warmth

Our numbers are growing on this site:scared: Theres a few of us meeting up in Bath in May, May be some more of you would like to get together. Mrs D

Hi there, Well i am just waiting for the phone call from the hospitol to advice me when i can go in and have my band removed. More problems now through. My port has slipped and I have Cellulitis. The mrsa seems to be collecting under the skin and an abcess is forming and it will burst very soon.So watch this space. I no things could be a lot worst but there again they could be better. The consultant has said that if the mrsa clears up I could consider another band in aprox 3 months but i may not be able to have one if there is to much damage to my stomach. I really do not want the Byepass.Thanks for reading, keep smileing.Mrs D

Hi I had my band removed two weeks ago. This was due to mrsa. My opp was quite traumatic as they had a job to get the band out.I still cant eat large amounts which is great, but i am finding i can almost eat anything. I still find bread a problem. And if i do eat to much I get stomach cramps. The main problem that I have is I am in quite an emotinal state, and i have nad a few bottles of wine. I no this is not good but its my way of coping at the moment.I have gained about 4 to five pounds which has really freaked me out. But I am trying to stay positive.Mrs D
