Joints are still protesting
Rheu, heu heu heu heu heu, heu, heu heu heu heu heu, heu, heu heu heu heu heu, rheumatoid, arthritis is exhausting

That's kicked off the season in fine style, thank you Numpty! Such is the current torpor of the forum that I hadn't even considered starting a new carols thread - I know we've done it before but I shall try and come up with a fresh version of something! DD
Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
Sorry, Numpty. I got so excited about this I searched for the former thread without even thanking you for you continuing genius. Please keep 'em coming. I'm right out of inspiration.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

will be miles and miles of smiles
just because you smiled I wish your
day is full of Smiles0 -
OK, not good at this but I'll have a bash. This is to the tune of 'Once in Royal David's City.'
Once in the rheumatology department,
I sat down, awaiting my turn.
Then came a nurse, who crooked her finger,
To the doctor's room I went.
There I lay, a-poked and prodded,
Joints protesting, aches and pains.
'Have you brought, your bloods to show me?'
Yes I have,' said I at once.
'Your CRP is way too high,
And your joints, are red and hot.'
Still I lay, my joints protesting,
And all over, aches and pains.

:hoho: Excellent!
Hark the Arthritics sing
I can't wear my wedding ring
Finger's swollen they won't bend
Oh when will this horror end
Anti inflammatories don't help
The dreadful pain just makes me yelp
Painkillers are a waste of time
Just pass me a glass of wine
Hark the arthritics sing
I can't wear my wedding ring
Numpty0 -
These are great. Thanks girls.

Rudolph the Red-kneed Reindeer
Had a very swollen knee
And if you ever saw it
You would say 'arthroscopy'.
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
Just because Rudolph could not
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve,
Santa came to say,
Rudolph with your knee bizarre
How about a TKR?
Then all the reindeer got really jealous and said “Why should he have one and not us?” “Dancer's been unable to dance for years, Prancer can't prance, Dasher can't dash, Cupid's grown old waiting for one, Vixen's living up to her name, Comet's shut down altogether and Donner and Blitzen have become swear words.”
So Santa said “OK guys, you can all have TKRs but first you have to deliver these parcels so gobble up your cocos, trammies, whatever and let's get this sleigh in the sky.”
Then all the reindeer loved him
and they shouted out "Yes please!
Santa's an ortho surgeon.
We're all going to have new knees.”If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
