Friday, 13th. Superstition

Two patients limp into two different medical clinics with the same complaint.

Both have trouble walking and appear to require a hip replacement.

The FIRST patient is examined within the hour, is x-rayed the same day and
has a time booked for surgery the following week.

The SECOND sees his family doctor after waiting 3 weeks for an appointment,
then waits 8 weeks to see a specialist, then gets an x-ray, which isn't reviewed
for another week and finally has his surgery scheduled for 6 months from then.

Why the different treatment for the two patients?


The FIRST is a Golden Retriever.

The SECOND is a Senior Citizen.

Well, it amazes me Brian how anyone signed on when they saw you !!, definitely a Jona, lol, kt

Brian you are a walking disaster, but tell us when did you break the mirror, twice by the look of things.

Suggest you buy a Saxa salt to carry around and throw everywhere you go, just so that anyone who follows you does not end up the same way.

With a Red Flag :) , cheers

The last time I sailed on Friday 13 was in 2018 from San Diego, Cal. at the start of a South Pacific cruise.
I had misgivings about it, I knew something may happen to me.
As we were letting go, the band was playing, sailaway party was going on deck.
Then a huge Seagull dived towards my head and Crapped. . A huge amount hit me on the head, it ran down my face and on my new white shirt.
Out of a thousand people it chose me.
Anne said , "I`ll go and get a toilet roll. " I said, "Dont be daft, it will be miles away by now."
I had to go to my cabin to have a shower and change my shirt.
I was just glad that Cows do not fly

After that day, it was a fantastic cruise,

the worst freaky accident was a lad i worked with robbie he had an old fashioned yard stick type measuring with the brass hinge he had it in his back pocket of his jeans he slipped running for a bus the brass part went up his spine he was in a wheel chair for 12 months so simple jp

Certainly not safe behind him

Am sure its a game with them, on holiday and visited Dartmouth a couple of years ago, we had taken the boat there, and while waiting for the return ferry, we both stood up to go to the jetty, and SPLATT, a full load hit the wife on the shoulder, and the excess back on to me, and you know the size of those shitehawks down the west country, any way i went into the gents toilet, the wife into the ladies, there was already a guy with his shirt off, muttering *bloody birds*, the only machine was one that you place your hand under and it supplies, water soap, and drying air, took me bloody ages to clean my shirt, and missed the ferry to boot. I think the little blighters have a completion to see who can hit most, kt

Thank your lucky stars it wasn't a n Albatross Keith:) , years ago there was an Egret that used to stand on my neighbours roof surveying all, one
day it bombed my car, I swear it would have filled a bucket, it was as if somebody had thrown a bucket of whitewash over the car, luckily the car
was on my drive so I was able to hose it down but the smell was disgusting sickly sweet stench, thankfully only did it once, cheers .
