I was in the hospital this morning when the doctor said, 'This may hurt for a few seconds'. Obviously his definition of 'few' is different to mine. Unless you are Winston Churchill and/or talking of The Few, 'Few' should always mean 'less than ten'. Any pain lasting more than 10 seconds counts as ' ages'.
The end result was that I have been invited to spend some time back at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital in the near future, for cups of tea, a meal or two and a spot of surgical procedure. (Fortunately for my overactive imagination it is nothing particularly serious - on a scale of one to ten, if 1 be bad and 10 be good, then this benign.) The problem has a Latin name, but I didn't let that fool me into thinking it has received a classical education...

Sorry to hear you'll be under the knife, BB.
Hope all goes well.
I brought you some hard boiled eggs and nuts.
