Can walk with a stick until I get knackered, about 5-10 minutes, after that I cant move. Constant 'pins and needles' all day everyday down my right side.
I can now drive, with an adapted vehicle (hand controls only) so I consider myself pretty lucky reallly. By rights I should be dead or proper paralysed.
Hasn't affected by brain however so I have no excuse for the low standard of comedy that I offer
Blimey.
Still, you'll get no special treatment from me, you big Flump.
Strange, my wife says the same thing!

We'll be the judge of that.

A racist gag, in the I'm special thread, how naughty?
The Scottish aren't a race.

One specific word springs to mind: "tit".
Quote: David Chapman @ June 26 2008, 12:36 AM BSTI think I'm the only one whose birthday it is today.
(How sad is that!)
Is that today, or yesterday? Cos you wrote it at half past midnight.
It is today, innit.
All my grandparents came over from Ukraine during the war, so I'm in that minority. Also, when they did come over, the surname was spelt wrongly. As such, I am the only Dan Sweryt in the whole world! How's that for a minority?
Dan
That is rather bloody fab. I hope you've registered the associated domain names and whatnot?
How was it supposed to be spelled?
It's supposed to have a 'D' at the end, but it got anglicized due to the fact that neither of my Dad's parents could speak any English. (There is a Barbara Sweryda who I've seen in the credits to some tv shows somewhere... EDIT: Ah, yes, 'Wardrobe Mistress' on the Smoking Room http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0973855/ Her family must be from the same village.)
Also, due to relocations during the war, I have one Ukrainian grandma who speaks English with a Scottish accent and one Ukrainian grandma who speaks English with a German accent. No-one can really figure this out as they've both lived here since 1946...
Dan
Ha!
Your family sounds ace. Mine are boring.
I do have a Welsh sounding one though!
Well, I did.
