just spent my lunch break holding the blood in an 88yr old gentleman's skull in reading town center 😐

poor chap tripped and fell face first into the pavement, his wooden walking stick got in the way of his forehead on the way down and it punctured a 2" wide gash in his forehead that didnt stop pumping out blood even after the paramedic joined me and we got some better dressings on compared to the shopping centres poorly equipped first aid kit.

lovely guy! I hope he recovers ok and his wife gets over the shock of watching it all 🙁

anybody else had an eventful lunch?

Good on you, far to many people would walk past people in need.

My lunch thought about having a haircut, then decided pork and pickle pies were more appealing!

My BBQ chicken wrap had a surprising amount of cress in it. That's my eventful highlight of today's lunch. Yours is way better...

Tried Walkers' MAX Cheese Burger crisps. Tasted like a cheese burger which was surprising!

Well I was all set to have some mackerel and a lovely healthy salad but at the last minute I went for butter bean soup and 2 crumpets.

Live life on the edge me.

Bringing it back round to bikes, just picked up a pair of Medusa's from the LBS and got a nice discount for them remembering my name, sweet!

I am off to go and get a bank card to replace the one my daughter has hidden. At 18months sadly she doesn't understand that it is important or be able to tell me where she has put it. I did check the bass speaker where she put my mobile last time (through the big hole in the front which is like a lobster pot so resulted in an a hour to cut it all open from the back to get it out).

Bless her little cotton socks...

I'm just sat in my lounge listening to the cat being sick. I might take my wife's (ridden twice, ever) bike to the market to buy some fruit to get me though the next 7 days at work.

TimP - She doesn't have one of these does she?

My bank card went missing, after I received a replacement I noticed my old one sticking out of the card reader on my daughters

Like you said: bless her little cotton socks 🙂

Tomorrow, I'm heading out into the city's dull grey streets. I'll find someone who needs help and I'll help them whilst bulging my muscles. Anything beats BBQ chicken wraps with too much cress...

Homemade egg mayo sarny, bunch of grapes and a game of pool. Pretty standard really.

binners daughter thinks the zenith of her career expectations will be working as a checkout girl.

Still, she'll be doing better than her dad just colouring in. 🙂

Its a good point, well put DD. But I was hoping she was leaning more towards credit card fraud. Possibly on a massive international scale. To keep me in Werthers Originals and Capstan Full Strangth 🙂

Inspired by this story I just went out, saw a seagull with an evil look in its eye and gave said bird a stern talking to. Who's the hero now?

The last time I stopped to help an old chap in very similar circumstances (trip, bang, blood), he sadly died 2 days later 🙁

He'd managed to get out of the "secure" old folks home he lived in, and make a break for it. In fairness the staff weren't far behind, but the damage had been done by then 🙁

It was quite odd as I'd stopped to help another old fella who'd done exactly the same thing about a week previously and it couldn't have been more different - he just sat there very calmly with blood everywhere, saying there was no need to fuss and just to take him home for a cup of tea! 🙂

Well done for not walking by Phil, here's a special lolcat just for you.

But it was post exercise TSY, so that's allowed (as is the yoghurt i'm now eating) 😛

I just had a toasted muffin with two fried eggs, one semi rigid and one flaccid, and some reduced salt and sugar beanz. I thought about Phil's heroics and had a strange boner again.

I've been pretty smart and, George Lucas style, registered the commercial rights for SuperPhil, including the action figure which I'm presently designing. Hmm..... where to look for inspiration........

Don't feel bad emsz, just go for a run later to burn it off. I had chocolate mid morning so my run at lunch = calorie neutral...until the biscuits hijack me tonight 😀

Just drink Diet Coke with the biscuits. I've been reliably informed that if you do, none of the calories are absorbed into the body. Apparently they disappear completely

I went home for lunch which was roast beef sandwiches. However the wife had only buttered one slice of bread, not both. She claims this is normal to do. I don't agree, I think both slices should be buttered.

Tomorrow I have been invited to the local primary school for a 'vegetable taster day'. There jolly well better be chips.

Only buttering one slice? What twisted evil is this?

I'd suggest that is reason enough to get your marriage annulled 😉

Yes, it's just illogical. Bread either requires butter, or it doesn't. I have sent an email to Relate asking that they have a word with her in the first instance. I'm a big believer in giving people a second chance.

I only butter one slice of a bread in a sandwich. Is your wife fit TGA?

I see your old man with cut head, phil, and raise you one excitable chap without trousers who believes that a very large hen is going to predict the lottery numbers by ruffling it's plumage for him.

I used to be a buttering one slice only guy, till I tried both and saw the light.

My lunch was eventful in that I used a new piri piri sauce on my chicken wrap which resulted in me eating what felt like lava. I can handle spicy food pretty freaking well but this was ridiculous. Mouth was on fire for 30 minutes afterwards. Will add a teeny bit less tomorrow.

I had a Lebanese mezze lunch with an Egyptian called Mohammed who had a massive black beard, bigger than Ed Oxley's. Mohammed kindly gave me a CD with quotations from the Koran, which I do intend to play one day out of interest.
