Plumbing, Puncturation and A Music Video

Plumbing - Because I'm sure you're all as interested in it as I am ;) Basically, I've been in contact with the upstairs neighbour, who is much nicer than the previous post made him sound, and he's going to get it fixed, although given how confused he sounded by the concept of "get a plumber", I'm glad I've also got the building management company on it.

Puncturation - I had a blood test yesterday by one of those terrifying practice nurses who you can tell are practising. In between a highly unusual technique for getting the blood to start running (and I'm someone who bleeds well) and the "whoops, let me just get a different vial for a different test while holding the needle in and then standing up" manoeuvre, I have a particularly lovely bruise.

A Music Video - I'm really digging this at the minute

Watch on YouTube

I do warn that it's an earworm though.

Oh no! I never get the practising nurses because I warn them first that I am a difficult case and they go get the most experienced nurse they can find. Them standing up while holding the needle is just silly.

It's was funny because the practise receptionist and another one of the practise nurses (I'm registered at the Uni practise so there's like 12 doctors and 3 nurses) were complaining about this nurse, I think they'd forgotten I was there, which wasn't the most brilliant of beginnings.

I even offered to hold the needle in for her, because it's not like I'm squeamish but no, she said it would be okay.
