    Is it worth looking up in the archives? Might kill a bit of time on this call.
    There were pictures, IIRC.

    After Morriston hospital had put his hand back together.

      Indeed, to the hand IIRC. He did post a post a pic after they stitched him back together. It was appropriately gruesome.

        I occasionally invite Diver back here for a guest appearance. He has stopped showing up though.

        I remember meeting him in West London once. I gasped when I saw him! He is used to it "There are people wide as a wardrobe. Few are like me and wide as a double wardrobe." Quite.

          Dammit, I started reading the relevant bits of TPD and suddenly the client started talking to me.

            Morning denizens

            Thin cloud out is starting to burn off, so it's getting sunny and starting to heat up

            The landlord/manager chap was just out in the back yard with a bloke who looked like he was involved with one of the building trades; they were both looking up towards the top of the building and discussing something. I wouldn't be surprised if its the fire escape for the top flat, which is just a platform leading to the actual iron staircase down, which is on the doctor's next door. It's very rusty these days and could do with a lick of paint, and probably a full check of its physical structure and strength.

            But my hope is that something needs doing to the roof and they decide to fix both sides of it while they're at it, as that would mean putting scaffolding up at the front, and I might finally be able to get my damn sash windows unstuck

            Fingers crossed… but it's probably just the fire escape getting a lick of paint

              And now CovKid II is back from the shops and keeping me company. Lion and Penguin are both reading TPD with me.

                And CovPuss II is off to the vet this morning to have his stitches removed.

                  Actually, reading TPD from 11 years ago it's surprising how many people there are I've never heard of (having only been around about 6 years)... El Diablo, kali, Xenophon, some bloke called Zeitghost...

                    Thankfully we got all the "business" done in 45 minutes.
