One day there will be another Brit working there who might get it, meanwhile, it does no harm

A few days ago Sundae convinced me to buy the 'League of Gentleman' DVD box set.
It arrived yesterday and all I need to do now is find an opportunity to watch it.
Yes, I'm posting this at 0345 but I'm really too tired to watch it at the moment.

Neither. It was approximately the half way point of the three hours I am usually awake in the middle of the night.

I haven't had a decent night's sleep since about 1895.

Somehow, this mural on a hospital in Quebec seems to be an inside joke...

This picture is part of the fresco telling the history of medicine at the Hôtel-Dieu de Québec, the oldest hospital in North America, since its founding in 1639.

Ahh, the magical, healing properties of playing an ear-recorder into the chest of your patient...

Gravdigr · 04-29-2015, 03:10 AM

Or, maybe, closely listening to the chest-recorder played by your patient

limey · 04-29-2015, 05:41 AM

Yes, but am I the only person to have noticed the concertina player at the right hand side?

BigV · 04-29-2015, 09:48 AM

So, I really like the folks I work with at the depot. Young and old (old as in my age...lol) all but one of them are good folks. I could start a list of amusing things that remind me of my young days at the farm market. bits and pieces are better...so:

Younger guy and a younger girl talking to me, and young lady is bemoaning her marriage, and younger guy is obviously smitten with her...without being an ass about it. So I sez to them, I sez : J is a nice guy. If I were 900 years younger...

And J sez: hey, just like The Outfield said, I like my girls a little bit older.

I was impressed he knew the song and band.

Mr. Clod has a coworker named Yingying...

...and a coworker named Yangyang. In the same damn office!
