.. but its absolutely true.
I was phoning around a few places today to set up some trips for the kids to do this week as they have nothing else planned. I called a local 'attraction' to arrange a tour of their facility. I really wanted Thursday because I thought it would give then something to do while I was back at the hospital.
Anyway, I'm chatting away to the person on the other end of the phone, asking about prices, availability etc and they tell me that unfortunately Thursday is all booked up. However, they might have a slot on Friday morning, if I didn't mind joining in with another group. I asked who the group was to be told it's a group from one of the local Alzheimer’s homes. My Gran had had Alzheimer's, so the prospect of doing the tour with that group didn't really worry me and I was giving it some serious thought when this is what was said next:
'They were supposed to come today, but they forgot.'
I had to apologise and hang up the phone. I was laughing so hard I literally nearly burst my flipping stitches - again!

Hi Chemical,
Thanks for visiting my blog. I thought I'd reciprocate by visiting your blog and using a big word at the same time.
I'm intrigued about your reference to hospital visits and burst stitches - I'll have to delve deeper to find out what's going on. (Hopefully that wasn't an unfortunate pun relating to some painful surgery you have had!)
Cosmo, Good to see you.
LOL! 'Delve deeper' could well be the buzz phrase for my summer! So you go ahead and jump on the bandwagon, at least the type of delving you do shouldn't cause any damage!!
