Were you not chatting about this around the same time as I was being referred for these things? Aye. We should start a Death Row thread and share tips. 2 scans and a biopsy lined up for next week. Holiday booked for January so if the prognosis is gloomy I'm going to tell them to lay off treatment till I get back. My PSA score was off the charts. Feel fit as a fiddle though, it's weird. If anyone's reading this and over 40, demand a regular check up, the doctor said I'd probably had it for years with next to no symptoms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I had one 2 months ago and the dicks put the headphones on at the last minute, TFM radio for 45 minutes, I just wanted to die. They also don't make these things for burly 6' 4" lads 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should get one done on the top of your head, they might find a hair follicle. Thank you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I had to have an MRI head scan done a couple of years ago at Monklands Hospital in Airdrie (let’s now take a moment to crack the ‘didn’t find a brain in there’ gag)... right, moving along swiftly!... They told me in advance that they would provide non-metallic special earphones, but you could bring an MP3 player or something with music on. I loaded an AC/DC mix onto an old iPod touch and off I went. The nurses got to the earphones part of the thing, and I told them I had AC/DC on the iPod. Turned out they were both metal fans - Maiden, Soundgarden, etc. Had a brief conversation about rock music, then off we went. The scan started, no music. The noises from the machine were very disconcerting, but I figured the music would start soon. It didn’t. I had no real idea how much time had passed, I had planned to count each song as about 5 mins passing, but as I had no real idea, I didn’t signal for them to abort. I could just about handle it and didn’t want to have to re-start the whole thing from scratch. The noises were pretty awful, but I was starting to make up words in my head to fit the repetitive loud scan noises... Wish - this - fcuking - thing - would - end.... Where’s - fcuking - AC - DC... This - Is - Like - Being - Trapped - In - A - Coffin - With - Rammstein - B Sides.... At long last, the scan ended. The nurses came over, asked if everything was OK. ‘What happened to the music!? I never heard anything!’... ‘Oh bollocks’ came the reply, never plugged in your connection... sorry! We loved it though, especially the Bon Scott ones’. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were probably tucking into a big tin of Quality Street as well. IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given people who don't carry cash do so because they live in the 21st century, I highly doubt this problem will arise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think I’m superior for not carrying cash, it’s just a far easier method of paying for things to use contactless so it’s frustrating when a shop/cafe refuse to accept card at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 7 hours ago, die hard doonhamer said: Cash only places must be money laundering fronts. I see no other justification for such archaic practices. I don't know about money laundering, but I noticed a while back that a roll shop I frequent only takes cash, and never has a paper roll in the till, so I presume they're fiddling their taxes. Thinking about it, the same goes for a local chip shop that writes down and calculates the orders by hand, despite having a till. Hmm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 There's a Chinese takeaway in the village that has been cash only as long as I've lived here (10 years). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
