and  gradually  chipping  away  at  our  freedom  of  speech
            and belief? Like Orwellian language and thought policing.
           I  suggest  we  retain  our  right  to  offend  people  and  be
            offended. If you find something offensive just go off n
            be offended then. I’m just saying, No offence.

           Doctors  have  just  told  me  they’ve  had  a  big  row  with
            Mental  Health  Services  in  Redditch  ‘cos  apparently
            they’ve just crossed a load of patients off the waiting list
            without  seeing  them.  No  wonder  I’ve  been  on  the
            "Emergency  Waiting  List"  for  2  years!      I  expect  some
            patients will have killed themselves be now so that’ll keep
            the lists down.

           Soooo  much  to  do  and  Soooo  little  time  and  energy!  I
            need to put up blinds n curtains n shelves n light fittings -
            none  of  which  I  can  do  myself.  I’ve  got  3  Art
            commissions  outstanding.  My  Art  room  needs  totally
            organising, refurbishing n decorating. My wardrobe is in
            desperate need of an overhaul. And I can’t even keep on
            top of the basic house work...

           I am being treated like a Princess in this village since my
            cancer  diagnosis!  I’m  having  flowers,  cards,  Krispy
            Kreme’s,  dinner  invites,  drinks,  hugs,  kisses,  doors
            opened  for  me,  seats  given  up  to  me,  errands  run,
            impromptu  visits....  I’d  like  to  be  one  of  them  people
            who say "Ooh I don’t like a fuss" but that’d be a lie! Its
            ace! I appreciate every single deed and gesture, however
