    Mansfield's linked post suggests otherwise?

    I enjoyed that anecdote. You’ve got a way with words.

    Where have you moved to , Just remember we pay for our NHS in this country so it is free to use when you need it.

    First line second paragraph from the post highlighted by mansfield red:
    However you slice and dice it (I admit to voting Conservative)

    First line of approx paragraph 5:
    Although I did vote Conservative I did so with little enthusiasm

    Are you Boris Johnson in disguise?

    Or are we all waiting for the Sue Grey report?

    Thank you mate, that means a lot to me. Same to you, you genuinely care about people and try to help them and that's something i really respect. You also try and calm things down when posters get a bit heated!

    My wife has a history of sudden fainting attacks with no apparent cause going back about 6 years, in all that time the NHS has done little, despite a couple of occasions when she was hospitalised overnight. In May we were at my sister's in Lanjaron when she had a "turn" and we spent a day at Granada hospital (my sister was with her due to her fluent Spanish while I sat outside). At the end of the day, after several tests including ECG, blood tests and a full-body CAT scan they had eliminated heart, brain and other major organ problems and diagnosed an inner ear problem (she had an operation on her ear many years ago and is partially deaf). We still have no diagnosis from the NHS.

    As I said, it was in a light hearted way, the meme seemed appropriate here and I wanted to make it clear it was said as a joke. I wouldn’t actually just tell him to eff off (unless he insulted my family or something, I guess).

    Brilliant post this. There's always one bloke at 5 a side that thinks he's Chris Waddle. Had a good giggle at this.

    Your husband is from a place that's terrible at football.

    That's an insult right? I eagerly await being told to eff off:)

    Nah, he wouldn’t care and would be the first to admit it.
