Speedlines.....as fitted to Monica (my 17TXD Turbo) :D You know your BX would look better with them, either in Anthracite or Graphite.

If you really need your bits fiddling with....Doc is most definitely your man! :shock:
He is probably one of the UKs finest artists of the "big hammer technique", and has an uncanny aptitude for fettling all things BX-related.

A romantic afternoon with Doc would probably include lots of lying around on the grass, occasional "beer breaks", and pizza slices, and would probably ALL occur within easy reach of his toolbox! :wink:

Having said all that, I's be VERY wary of letting MY daughter out with him!!!
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

(How's that for a reference, Chris?)

Or have things changed since my days of waking up in strange rooms following mess parties and cracking open a IV set, litre of dex and a blue venflon?

Nooooo - Dextrose or dextro-saline (depends which bag you got)

Blue venflons FTW when it comes to post piss up hangover cures - besides would you trust a hungover houseman to use a green venflon on yer arm? Bruising like mad - NFTW.

It was typical practice for those that were truly arseholed to be offered a litre of IV fluids in the pepping up process, as some were off on duty shortly after the bin lid and wooden spoon came round in the morning. Usually coupled with some panadol, zantac and maxalon and several cups of coffee and a bacon butty - if you wernt on an early you crashed in someones room, not the mess. Not cannulated anyone for yonks, venepuncture almost daily, but not cannulation - was something I was never that good at actually - yet oddly I have no trouble with venepuncture. Even from junkies and mad old ladies.... Odd that. Not done suturing for a while either, mind you its like sex, or falling off a log - once you learn you never.... umm....

Ahh, happy days - we wont see their like again. I mean WTF is it with F1 & F2's- whatever happend to the houseman and senior houseman? Got a mate whos a gasman and he still refers to them as HO's. Actually said mate took great delight in setting up my block with the biggest needle in the world when I went in for some metalwork recently. Git.

Ever heard the phrase bulshitt baffles brains?

Thats what doctors do every day - I mean why call it an elbow when you can bewilder people by refering to the olecronon, why call it something as simple as a nose bleed when an epistaxis will do instead?

Now lie on your side, draw your knees up to your chest and relax....
