Doctor's waiting room sketch

Doctor's surgery. Two men are sitting in the waiting room comparing ailments.

BOB: Ugh, I have terrible backache

DOUG: Yeah?

BOB: Do you want it? I'm bored of it now.

DOUG: Nah, I'm happy enough with my calf strain.

BOB: Ah. You an athlete then?

DOUG: Armchair mostly but I've had me moments. I pulled it reaching for the TV remote.

BOB: You pulled a leg muscle reaching for a remote control?

DOUG: My feet were nearer. Still, it took my mind off my groin strain.

BOB: Ooo, nasty.

DOUG: Yes but it's not as bad as this wrist injury.

BOB: Wow, you have been in the wars.

DOUG: Indeed but it's the chance you take when you watch Maria Sharapova in the Tennis.

If you don't know who Sharapova is click here: http://www.mariasharapova.com/defaultflash.sps

I like this it's rude and involves just enough thinking to make it fun.

Maybe the injury swop is a little too much of a wrong footer? But otherwise fun stuff hope it finds a home.

I love it. Brillaint sketch Tuumble.

"Armchair mostly but I've had me moments"

Nice and quick, good one.

I like it Tumble.

Thanks guys.

Not sure I could mention any individual names but perhaps I could replace Sharapova with beach volleyball or something.

You may not even need that last line Morrace, perhaps just a "Yyyyyyes" or something

Good point, Shaggy - I must admit I had second thoughts about that one. I made the grave error of 'ah, that'll have to do'! You confirmed my doubts.

It feels like it's missing something to me. I like Morrace/Shaggy's suggestions.

Or he says something like he's got 'Tennis Wrist' in the original. 'Don't you mean 'tennis elbow'?' 'Yeah, alright then...'

I like the ending Tuumble.
