I will leave hospital for a revalidation centre on Tuesday as there are no more cans with nurses in Geldrop Hospital.
Remarkable good progress with use of my legs  ;D ;D

Let me warn you about those beautiful nurses: In college, when I had my wisdom teeth pulled, the anesthetic knocked me unconscious. I woke up in a recovery room and a beautiful, sexy young nurse said she would be right back. The anesthetic slowly wore off and I waited for the nurse to return. When she returned I realized she was about 50 years old, somewhat overweight, and anything but beautiful or sexy. Ah, the power of drugs! -- Russ

  I could tell you , but then you'll be as clever as me and we can't have that now , can we ! ? !

  Oh , all right seeing as it's you .

I have two rubber molds for making 1/32nd scale bricks that I made myself and one mold for making 1/35th scale bricks that I recently bought from the company that I gave the web address in a previous post on this thread ( you'll have to find that for yourself as I'm not doing all the work ) . Each of the 1/32nd scale brick molds has 200 bricks and the 1/35th scale mold has 100 , so I can make 500 at a time . I reckon without to much trouble I could make 1500 a night .

  I normally use casting plaster with a builders mortar colouring powder added to give the bricks their red colour but I have been recently been trying out a product called Jesmonite that my son has brought home from work . Here is their website http://www.jesmonite.com/ . I don't think that there are any advantages of using this material in preference to plaster but as I was given it I thought I'd try it out .

  There , now you know as much as me .

There was an Irish man who went into a brick yard and asked for 1000 bricks.
The guy at the brick yard took the Irish man down to the shed and on the way down to the shed the guy asked him, "What do you need 1000 bricks for?"
The Irish man said, "I'm building a BBQ" so the guy asks, "Why do you need 1000 bricks?"
The Irish man replies, "Because I live on the 15th floor."
