I remember Dinnifords Gripe Water, I quite liked it, but hated the other stuff I was fed; Liquid Paraffin.

Hmmmmm! I would have to see that to believe it.....being a nurse meant that I was privileged(I'm not sure that is quite the right word) to see a lot of wing wangs as retlaw puts it..........most of them would be hard pressed to accomodate 5 ha'pennies.....and the vast majority fell into the category of 'needs a pin to get it out'.

Anyway, I was always told that 'it isn't the size of the cannon, but the power of the shot' that matters.

Button hooks are better for some.
Believe me Margaret he is a one off, hung like a horse, unlike this patient of yours.

Nurses aren't supposed to laugh...

"Of course I won't laugh," said the nurse. "I'm a professional. In over twenty years I've never laughed at a patient."

"Okay then," said Fred, and he proceeded to drop his trousers, revealing the smallest male part the nurse had ever seen.

It's length and width was almost identical to a AAA battery.

Unable to control herself, the nurse tried to stop a giggle, but it just came out. And then she started laughing at the fact that she was laughing.

Feeling very badly that she had laughed at the man's part, she composed herself as well as she could.

"I am so sorry," she said. "I don't know what came over me. On my honor as a nurse and a lady, I promise that won't happen again. Now, tell me, what seems to be the problem?"

"It's swollen," Fred replied.

Germany (the not so secret rulers of Europe) tend to use the Euro, now are we talking notes or coins here ?

Now Margaret you should know we are talking about 1/2 pennies, the old ones, pre 1970's & my mate was nicknamed Donkey D, not Donkey Dave.
