Or at the very least make it a charge per prescription rather than per item, like it used to be.

But...that said, the prepay option does take a lot of the weight off people who have regular meds and effectively serves as a prescription charge not tagged to items.

Mrs G is on yearly prepay.
She gave me a spare salbutamol inhaler in anticipation of me being prescribed one.
I was and so I crossed it off the prescription. £7.65 I didn't have to pay, ker-ching.

I got tipsy waiting for my internet to get installed (I was bored). Now its installed and I need to go to the store but can't because I'm too responsible to drink and drive .

OK, now I know where Water Polo gets its reputation for roughness. If you can't play the game, brawl. Walled Lake 5, Skyline 13 and a quick exit.

Kind of cranky... yesterday walking into the barn past the tractor my boot caught on the wire panel sending me falling onto the loader bucket that has several tines. My leg now has a fabulous V with 29 stitches decorating it. Thankfully the tine missed the bone the tendons muscles and nerves. It never hurt so no drugs 'cept tetanus and amoxi.

I have to be on a plane Friday, going to Dallas to judge a dog show. Going to have to wear dress pants. Maybe I can tell them I cut myself shaving ...

shaving with a loader bucket... Wow, I guess Ibram isn't the only one who has a *lot* to learn about shaving. Wow, I hope your recovery is swift and uneventful.

I was worried you may have kicked the bucket, but it seems you had the tine of your life.

Shit, Nirv!
And way to go in the modesty stakes burying it here in the Post Whore thread.
If I'd needed 29 stitches I would hve started a whole thread of my own about it.

Look after yourself.

Hey Nirvana... um... can we have pictures?


You know, for science. And, uh, it's easy to send healing vibes when we know exactly what we're healing, yeah?

My younger brother has a V scar on his arm from going through plate glass when he was very little. (Never forget it, it was so horrible...big bro and I cried and cried and tried to clean up the blood.) They had to sew part of his muscle back together. Said he'd never play baseball. Ended up being 1st Team All State Pitcher.

So you see, 'vana, you can still be in the big leagues, you can still go to 'the show.'
