Before I retired I used to teach Maths As I said in an earlier topic I am having my new hip on Monday In the same call they said I was to have another blood test on the 24th Using my trusty fingers I worked out that that was today.Got my wife up at 7 to drive me to the hospital registered and was told that my appointment was for the 24th but that's tomorrow.Oh Dear Glad I have an understanding wife Probably forgiven but not forgotten :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

    Teaching maths is advanced stuff. Working out calendar dates is waaaaay beneath your abilities as a brainy **** wot can do big counting and everyfink. (That is all typed with affection tonesp!) It is so easy to muddle appointments - we all have so many of them! Never mind, no harm done, it got you out and about and the lady wife is not grumpy - just remember to go tomorrow! And on the 27th!

    :lol: Nearly done that myself, if my daughter hadn't sorted me out. :oops:
    Mine would have been a 30 mile round trip for zilch treatment, and maximum embarrassment!

    If you need extra fingers to count on, you can borrow mine, if you like!

    Base 7 - it's a killer. DD I can manage base 10 and 12, and most other even ones, but 7? Nasty. You have a lot on your mind tonesp, it's the biggy on Monday - are you all set for it? DD

    Hiya DD ready to go Done a couple of big shops this week so my non Spanish speaking wife is well stocked up.Don't know what this next blood test is for as the doctor said my last ones were perfect.I wonder if you have to donate a pint of your own blood.Let you know tomorrow.This round trip today was 60 KM All multibase maths is simple But Binary needs an awful lot of space :lol:

    Hi Tonesp

    Just to say all the best for Monday ... you will be fine ... I had mine done in early May and it's brilliant, compared to how I was before.

    I have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.
