@Snowy sounds rough mate, all the best.
Cheers for the advice (@canefan too). That's a good way to look at it, hadn't really thought of it that way.
No worries mate. I was really close to my Grandma, used to spend lots of time with her, do errands, everything. I went on overseas holiday with a mate after graduation and a few days into the trip she passed away. The old man told me to stay on, said I had been a great grandson and there was no need to come back, I had done everything already

@canefan yeah, no right or wrongs here. The challenge I have is being an only child to a mum with no partner. So it's not just missing her passing potentially, it's all the shit leading up to it, liaising with Hospice, organising help where needed, just the visits every day or 2 - none of which I can do from abroad. So I'm effectively passing the buck to her siblings if I leave, none of whom live in Palmy - though her bros aren't too far away.
Fuck, I sound like a bloody catholic with all this guilt talk! 😂

even now I'm wide awake
Have a juniper based beverage. Mix it with some fizzy quinine liquid. As my boss in PNG used to say, have 10 a day and you won't die of malaria. Cirrhosis probably, but not malaria.
There ain't much you can change about any of it, just keep on keeping on and stay away from coronavirus news, just depressing. It's like self diagnosis via google- I've had Ebola so many times...

Actually, I've been really well behaved lately, just having a cup of tea instead tonight as sleep is not happening now. Poor you with your Ebola, never considered that in your line of work handling body parts and fluids is hazardous to your health too, do take care!

glass of red and a wank works for me

@mariner4life How's your back?

perfect thanks. Went for a proper run last night as like a final test, but I'm 100%

Actually we did have those sorts of things happen. I delegated handling of bodies and and use of body bags to the cabin crew. Not my forte.
The self diagnosis is more of an issue. I have also had pneumonia, black water fever, dengue, and more recently coronavirus and yet I am still here and the internet lead me astray - like this joint (no I'm not smoking) I meant TSF.

@R-L Tea = Caffeine = Stimulant = Wide Awake
