    <p>I've read a lot of Hooroo's posts over the years - too many to still be sane - so I'm sure at least one of those errors will be genuine . . .</p>

    Had clients who I thought were twats, they moved into the moron catagory yesterday when I rang them to tell them they had failed the code of compliance because they had no smoke alarm by theirs and their kids bedrooms. The reply I got was s big sigh and "really, oh well I guess I better get one" .<br><br>
    Ffs , a decent one is only $30 .<br><br>
    Winger your thoughts on the government bullying people into buying smoke alarms please and links to proof they actually kill more people than they save if you've got time.

    Don't smoke alarms cause Autism? <br>
    Oh no wait that's global warming, smoke alarms are a by product of GE crops and dairy farming

    The inspector was so pissed at their stupidity that he insisted on he dual sensor one which is $30.<br>
    The mount for the old one was still there, they must have taken it down when the battery started beeping.

    <p>I had bacterial meningitis when I was 6. Luckily, I can't recall the various pains including the lumbar puncture. I was just pissed off that I missed my class's visit to the fire station.</p>

    <p>Oh god, the lumbar puncture. The surgeon who did mine fucked it up and hit a nerve, was like getting a massive electric shock, and my legs flew from one side of the bed to the other. Out of the six medical students staring at me and robotically making notes, one sat down and chatted a little (about rugby of all things). Wherever he is, I'll bet he is fucking awesome doctor.</p>

    <p>I always wonder when people say this. Did he really fuck up or was it just bad luck, it's not like there is a map of nerves for him to avoid. It must be difficult as all hell to do that procedure. I always aire on the side of bad luck, but my wife thinks everyone is an incompetent fuck if they don't do it perfectly the first time. Same with taking blood etc...</p>

    <p>Yes mooshld, my wife (and now my kids are getting infected with it) is always on the side of "someone is to blame" and how often does this lead to "I should be compensated"? Makes me despair sometimes. Mistakes happen. Bad luck happens. Very little is exact and known and not subject to ordinary human error or the vagaries of life.</p>

    I think they must know almost exactly where they are trying to inject, otherwise are you saying they are just guessing and is luck when they get it right given the vast network of nerves, veins etc in the body.<br><br>
    My wife had an epidural with TR Jnr and took a while to find the right spot, sadly this meant she had epidural headaches for about 4 days post birth and they are nasty, fortunately caffeine and sugar help alleviate them, not something you want a lactating women to need....

She was not impressed lol.

    The moron with the dildo has struck again, it's a squeaky one this time. Surely a squeaky dildo would be quite distracting while you're having a Willis ?

    <p>well it didnt have the desired effect on my wife, as they put it in the wrong spot, which caused the extra fluids putting pressure on the nerves, thats why they had to do it again.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>When I was living in the UK, I went running in the rain and slipped on some wet flint on a horse track and sliced my hand open...ended up at A & E for stitches and as the dude was starting to insert the needle to sew me up after a local, I said I could feel it, so he gave me more, still felt it, long story short, local didnt work, not allowed to give me more, sew me up with no anaesthetic aint too much fun</p>

    Midwifery attracts a decent amount of ferals and pro disease types, not surprised to see this<br>

    <p>Based on our experience with our kids being born (both hospital births and by c-section) Midwives are amazing! </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>They get buggar all pay, and so they spend all that time with the mother leading to the birth, if they hand it over to a Dr for the birth, they dont get the fee (least thats how it worked when TR Jnr was born) </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>So our midwife worked her ass off, spent numerous hours (>48 for #1 and >15 for #2) at hospital while my wife was in labout only for both to be born by c-section (with one at 9pd 14 and the other at 10pd 5, was always on the cards) she got no fee, but never did we feel she was jeopardising my wife of unborn childs safety for the sake of a fee.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Those that do mid-wifery dont do so for the money! </p>
