ah Bless ! Hello Tyke, how's the treatment going, those nurse's are wonderful aren't they. Taking you to concerts and now allowing you access to a PC, isn't it difficult to type with that special jacket on, what with it fastening at the back and all that, or are you dictating so the nice nurses type for you. You really shouldn't excite yourself by going on about sheep you know, the nurses said that you weren't responding to the ECT

You take care of yourself old boy, the nurse's really do know what they're doing and with a little help from yourself will get you back to your old beligerent self

Cheers

Raggy

Sounds like Holmfirth is full to the rafters with sheep sha--ers!!!!!
I might have to give this shindig on 5-7 May a miss ( or cunningly disguise myself as a Morris Flancer and check out the scale this perversion has spread in those lands ) Wait and see.

That Tyke is a very naughty boy, he is giving my staff a considerable amount of problems, he is not responding to treatment, he gets VERY excited when he has his ECT, in fact he gets VERY excited before he has it. In 35 years of nursing I cannot recall a more difficult patient, he is rude, he TOUCHES my nurses in a most inappropriate manner and asks them to make bleating noises. We have taken him out to concerts and allowed him use of a PC under supervision, when not under supervision we caught him looking at www.swedishsheepinnursesuniforms.com and other such sites. He may not be allowed to use the PC if this behaviour continues and we may have up the voltage.

The bugger deserves everything he gets. Quadruple the voltage sister and organise him a visit from the grannies from hell!


P.S: when I tried to access the swedishsheep....website the page could not be found. What is the correct web address as I am keen to continue my research in this aboninable perverted behaviour as an endemic has reportedly hit Holmfirth.
If not stamped out swiftly this could seriously endanger the upcoming Holmfirth Festival of Folk.

I was just wondering if it was safe to come back yet.
It seems all sorts have been going on since I've been gone but if all the sheep are safely gathered in and all the straight jackets are around those that need them then I may brave the Pentland Firth and the A9 at the beginning of next week.

Hi Cath,
It's safe to come home as Raggytash is busy pleasuring and resting himself viewing the lambs on yonder Green Banks. He telling everyone he's watching the Pratty Flowers grow! But we all know different don't we? And its not even May yet!

Well, I've finally got back on line, and the damned sheep have been at it again.
BY the way Soldier Boy, are you dead yet, and if so where's the song book?

I will take to the High Road and the Low Road and Never Tire of the Road as I come via the valley of Tees (avoiding Ilkley Moor with or without 'at) and return to the Land of the Summer Wine and Pratty Flowers.
Maybe this thread will then return to sanity once I am back in control of things!!
