If you watch the goggle box over here, three out of every four tv advertisements are for nostrums to cure ailments our parents/grandparents never even heard of, yet we should panic lest we have contracted whatever.
Does anyone remember "Beecham Powders"?
Those more paranoid than I claim that this is the government's way of killing us off so they don't have to pay our pensions.
I am trying to take Magic's advice and check in the mirror to see if all the bits are still in the right place and attached. Are we talking about the proverbial "naughty bits" or things that seem to have grown after hitting the age of 60 onwards? I still have to locate my spectacles, so I may have to go by feel!
I have a question for those that still reside in the UK.
On my trip to England, should I need medical attention, is my old National Health Card ID # still valid, or would they promptly clap me in irons and perform horrible medical experiments?
I am still working things out with various departments in HM Gov.
My wife (#2) is American, my daughter (with wife "1) has duality, my grandson seems to legally be
(a) American (b) a Brit and (c) Punjabi Indian. My daughter divorced her first husband and married an American of Indian extraction and seems to be living happily ever after. There seems to be a few ruffled feathers around in the HM Passport office. we have to get things clarified before we fly anywhere.
I know that quite a few of the members on this web site have married non Brits. Have you had any nastyness so to speak entering the UK?
Any advice on that front?
Last question: Before we book our airline tickets, what is the safest seat (that is the best chance of survival) on an British Airways Boeing 744 Jet? In case of a catastrophic event. (Oh dear Lord Fred...talk about paranoia!).
OK, I'd better bugger off lest my new missus thinks I'm e mailing some floozie on the internet.
Thank you gentlemen
And regards to all
