990 replies

MsNobodyAgain · 22/09/2012 22:01

Welcome one and all to the fan club of the afternoon soap 'Doctors'.

For any newcomers , explanations as follows:

TBFE: The Bloke From Emmerdale (Ian Kelsey who plays Howard)

SDTP: Saddo Doctors Thread Partakers (which we all think know we are but we love it anyway).

Waterfall cardi: Apparently these are a MN no-no but it's a wardrobe essential to a SDTP.

Gobbyplods: Karen and Rob Hollins, aka 'the only plod in the village'

Beanbags: are now being Freecycled and will be passed on to other lentil weavers.

I knew what you meant Sparkling Smile

Thanks. It's just not something I've considered before but I think it's a wise move.

Now, if only I could get Kevin over here for a home visit...Grin

Well that's it MsN. If I couldn't drive DS1 to the school bus stop 6 miles away I would be pretty knackered. Sad And flu is vile.

I never thought of the home visit. I should have just rung my GP and demanded they come out. Doh! Grin

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 11:04

Arghhhhhhhhhh

Using this thread for a bit of a rant about the stupid, idiotic woman, who ran a red light and crashed into dh. DD2 was in the car, and is thankfully ok. The car is a write off- and we've only been paying for it since March.Angry. We haven't even got the money to pay the excess. I feel sick. I should be grateful that everyone is ok- all I can think about is the inconvenience and the fact we just can't afford for this to happen now.

And I had to take ds to the doctors because he had an allergic reaction to god knows what. No home visits hereGrin.

Sorry for the ranty high jack. Normal service resumed soon.

Is it too early for Wine?

Sparklingbrook · 12/10/2012 11:09

Oh no Raahh glad everyone is ok. Will you have to pay an excess if it wasn't DH's fault? What was she thinking? Sad

Sparklingbrook · 12/10/2012 11:10

Oh and it isn't too early for a medicinal puposes Wine.

MsNobodyAgain · 12/10/2012 11:26

Raahh you poor thing. {{{hugs}}}

That is truly shit re the car. I'm glad DD is ok but you are entirely justified in having a rant. It's inconvenient, costly and crap having to deal with that type of thing.

Was the doctor any use with DS?

What a horrid day. x

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 11:43

I'm not sure about the excess- never had a crash beforeSad so no idea what happens now. it's a stupid junction, and because they are building a tramline to the airport, there's lots of traffic due to temporary lights. It's not the first crash like that, sadly.

Ds has got some citrizine, thankfully in liquid form as he goes into meltdown having tabletHmm, and i am not a very patient motherBlush. Definitely an allergy to something, but i can't think what.

I am hoping everything will get sorted without me having to think about itGrin we need an ostrich emoticonGrin

At least dd2 is fine- was a shock going to pick her up from the scene though, loads of police about, but she was ok. Honestly, between grenades and crashes I've had enough this week!

toldmywrath · 12/10/2012 11:59

Raahh glad everyone is ok, but as you say it's the nuisance of having to sort it out. Hopefully your insce co. should be helpful, they can tell you about recovering the excess (do you have legal aid cover-they can help too)
Not too soon for that drink either-as Sparkling says, it would be for medicinal purposes.
RL interferes with my schedule today-out for lunch with IL's.

TheAngelshavetheOod · 12/10/2012 12:47

Catching up with yesterday's.

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 12/10/2012 13:32

Hi all. Just catching up on yesterday before today's episode. I have had a craptacular week. Bad cold, followed by that hideous back then I spent all of yesterday turning myself inside out with a violent, virulent vomiting bug. Bleurgh.

today I have a grouchy baby who wants to play with daddy like he did yesterday. On the plus side it's his 9 month birthday today and he stood up unaided for the first time!

what's the guy with the bad back been in?

And how terrible was that girl's acting, the one who used the skin lightening cream?

Hah. I was wondering when they were going to get one of those computerised check in thingies.

Also - how sex-obsessed are the writers at the moment? What with Jas and the hot line and Mrs T and the norrrrty book...

MsNobodyAgain · 12/10/2012 13:38

Hi Makes. Hopefully you are over the worst of it now. It's awful being ill.

At first glance the guy with the bad back reminded me of Roy Kinnear. I don't know what he's been in. Nowt new in me saying that. I never recognise anyone.

I thought bailiffs weren't allowed to take items that might be needed to earn a living...?

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:47

ooh, here we go. Need the light relief- better be wtf today!

MsNobodyAgain · 12/10/2012 13:48

6tl Emma is coming across as a bit of a perv.

OP posts:
MsNobodyAgain · 12/10/2012 13:50

The Sky+ synopsis doesn't make sense today, it says "Heston and Emma enjoy a lunch date, much to Heston's irritation" Confused

Why would Heston be annoyed at a nice lunch date?

OP posts:
dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:50

Whats going on here? Father and son? Gay partners?

Chaniel off on a home visitGrin

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:51

I like Mrs T's scarf...

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:52

Confused by the sky synopsis!

ooh, she's like a petulant 5 year old, Cherry.

MsNobodyAgain · 12/10/2012 13:53

I think it's father and son Raahh

Drinking in the afternoon? Bit irresponsible for doctors

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:56

Only bad things shagging in the exam room can come of drinking in the afternoon.... Grin

Icelollycraving · 12/10/2012 13:56

Rarely watch it live so not in the drs gang but gate crashing!
The new dr is really giving me the creeps. When will Heston see the love of his life that is Mrs T?

MakesCakesWhenStressed · 12/10/2012 13:56

Woo hoo. Baby's asleep.

Now what's good for a wobbly tummy to eat?

dRaahhcula · 12/10/2012 13:57

Grin at TBFE worrying about 6tl's marriage.
