thanks play it again. I don’t need pads to make me incoherent, though. I find a few bottles of wine and some intransigent views mean that I can be incoherent without any outside help.

The incoherence pads are on their way. I’m told they stop one talking shit

Much sympathy on the back and putting out of…reminds me of a time I was bent double on a wicker chair in the kitchen for 3 hours. Husband dispatched to 24hour chemist for some sort of valium equivalent. I was left with unreachable and unchangeble TV showing snooker and clutching one of my children’s plastic cups in the event of being caught short. Luckily, for them at least, I wasn’t. If only I had known about the dressing stick my life would have been complete.

I hope things improve soon, but looking on the bright side, you missed Eastenders

Thanks Pixl – have placed my online order. A snip at only $695 plus p & p. I am actually up and about today, but still intrigued by all of these gadgets for torpid people. And look what I found on a website today, after The Queen of Cakes told me they do indeed exist. It’s a device for helping you put your pants on! Although with the more humdrum name of dressing stick.

There are also these great things for helping the elderly get out of the bath, it’s like a giant whoopee cushion that you sit on and as it inflates, it raises you in the bath. It conjures up images of Jonah riding aloft a breaching whale as it sounds in your bath but hey, it would be fun.
