Tzarine, do you remember the movie where an older man falls asleep on the sand (at the beach) and his friends? spray sunscreen on his chest. When he awakens some hours later, he is sunburnt except for the word “DORK” on white skin! And then there is the movie where the man's back is sunburned red except for the white skin showing a woman's hand.

Don’t recall a handprint on the back, Baz, but by sheer dumb luck, I have found the “dork” movie. It was Police Academy 5, and it’s Captain Harris on whom sunblock is used. . .

His book was so good and so sad. Read that when it first came out a few years ago.

Thanks Jeff.
We don't have a McDo (as the French call it) in Chipping Sodbury so I'll leave it to someone else to give it a trial.

Our breakfast was disturbed by a phone call from a friend in Edinburgh. She had fallen and couldn't get up. Now Edinburgh is 400 miles away so we couldn't dash over and help her to her feet. She seemed unable to call the emergency number 999 (though she could ring us). So Mrs Faz rang 999 to alert the emergency service.

We left at 11.45 to go out for lunch. Mrs Faz rang our friend in Edinburgh ^^^ and unbelievably the emergency services still hadn't come. Scotland has a different health service from England. It has the reputation of being good but just avoid having an accident if you are up there north of the border.

Eeek! She is just lying there waiting for help? That’s horrendous.

i hope she is alright or getting better now. she must have been scared and thus her reaction was to call people she trusts, maybe?

Our friend in Edinburgh has a daughter living in the city but she had turner her phone off - hence the call to us. So the daughter took over. We have had a one-liner that she is in hospital with 2 cracked ribs. Apparently she fell out of bed.

Tzarine, you might be interested in a book called "Human Crossings" refugee stories.

On the Bang Saphan travel site I asked what my name would be in Thai.
Apparently my fist name is เดวิด .
And my family name?
could be spelled a lot of different ways, some of which you wouldn’t even recognise if you heard them!
