BBC News - David Cameron defends decision to block EU-wide treaty


German Chancellor Angela Merkel said she "regretted" that the UK was "not able to go along the same path" as the rest of Europe. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Mr Cameron had made "unacceptable" demands for exemptions from EU financial regulation for the City of London.

We have never gone down the same path as Europe, which if one studies history, is just as well.

I am livid.

All these snipes and arguments will never end. I almost despair with the EU.

Went to the hospital on Monday to finally get my ankle fixed up (Calcaneonavicular Coalition). Something similar to this: Calcaneonavicular Coalition - Wheeless' Textbook of Orthopaedics (not for the squeamish).

It isn't too bad now but crutches suck balls, so annoying. Cast is pretty annoying too even if it isn't a full one, thankfully only got it until a week today before I get another one. Pain isn't too bad but I'm not allowed to put much weight through it. Every now and again I do though, with predictable consequences...

I found using cable ties was the key to itching under the cast they are flexible and not sharp enough to remove flesh
 
Thanks for wishes. Dad's still in hospital. They are amputating his leg in "ham steak slices". He's resting now.

Annoying me?... I can' get into the Christmas season. WTF is wrong with me!? I have cool $hit for my boys!
 
Matt, you've got my full sympathy. *hug*

My father got hospitalized yesterday as well.
He had gone for a check-up on his heart, his phys had sent him - and then they kept him on the hospital, because his heart beats way too fast.
Mom and I visited him yesterday, and he was doing alright for the circumstances.
They've made a new "heart"-department (word?) at the hospital, so everything is brand new and looking great.
And more importantly: They've got new equipment for the patients.
So dad's in the best of hands, but damn - the timing could be better:
Mom and dad moves to their new apartment on friday.
They'll prolly keep dad for a couple of days to find out what's wrong, and then they'll decide whether or not they'll try pills, pacemaker or whatever.

I asked mom if there was anything I could help her with, but she's doing alright, packing stuff and all.
Biker buddy Jørn and I will help out as much as we can in the weekend, even though I offered my parents that I could talk with my boss and have some days off from work, but that wasn't necessary, according to mom and dad. Erm, alright. Damn. *pout*
So now i hope that they'll find out what's wrong with dad's heart rhytm, and what they can do about it, and that the moving my folks' stuff'll go alright.
So my big christmas wishes is that dad'll be okay; that they can help him at the hospital - and that the moving will go okay and that mom and dad will find their own rhytm again and enjoy their new apartment.
 
Two things....

1. Giant headache.
2. Have not started my Christmas shopping yet. I hate shopping to begin with, but shopping at Christmas time is at least 10 times worse.

I'll stop whining now, there could be worse things to deal with.

Itching is bad enough, wait till it starts to get ripe!!! I once had a cast on a broken wrist for 2 months, that buuger was getting pretty rank by the time they put a new one on.

We have gone high tech with coloured fiber glass casts now. A bit sturdier than PoP ones for the clumsier patient ( that'll be me)
