Brings deep meaning to the phrase "bloody hell!"

I hope writing about it consigned the experience to (recent) history.

Best wishes.

Made me wonder whether the Mt Victoria rats have got hold of a Slack shaped voodoo doll.

Crikey David, not sure if you've been put through a wringer or a mincer. I do hope you're on the mend.

Relieved to hear that you can relieve yourself without further mortal risk! Somewhat ashamed to admit I also laughed out loud while reading this - even while simultaneously feeling VERY CONCERNED (note the capitalisation for emphasis!) for your plight. Its a character flaw for sure. But I figured there had to be a happy ending coming!

You posted a link to a covers album I WAS NOT AWARE OF (I love covers). Go well, wordsmith.

A ripping tale perfectly told, as ever. Best bedtime read this week. V happy you paid attention to your body's signals instead of adopting the "It'll probably pass, I'll worry about it if it's worse tomorrow" staunch attitude that our elder generation exemplified. Sounds like they were hard to ignore. Best wishes.
