I've had meningitis and I thought the worst bit was the twice-daily blood tests until I had a lumbar puncture to drain off some of my cerebrospinal fluid. The first attempt missed too! Hope all is well jonlumb; things have moved on a great deal since I had it. Three doctor's visits failed to diagnose the meningitis so my Dad got a medical symptom dictionary and went through it until one of the entries matched.

Back home now, all the tests came back clear which is good. Seems to have been a mix of gastroenteritis and flu, but given that both her sister and niece had it about 2 weeks ago and Tora had been in contact during the quarantine period it wasn't worth risking it.

I thought it was originally coca-cola, but Aunty Beeb wouldn't allow brand-advertising, so it was changed for them? I did ponder this prior to posting. Let me research some more. This lecture's a bit dull. <eddit> This is the article wiki cites. See item 5 in the list.</eddit>

Well, since further investigation does indeed point to your argument being based in fact, I am now happy to accept your version. However, the accepted version of the song, released as the single with amended lyrics to appease Auntie Beeb, is the one most of us know and love. *wanders off to the Something New I Learned Today thread* _________________My Flickr | Snaptophobic BloggageHeather Kay: modelling details that matter.

Thanks! I've had this class before and to say that they are "challenging" would be an understatement. I'm taking the attitude that since I've had no prior warning I will be supporting the session, not leading it, so that'll make it a bit easier. _________________John Vella BSc (Hons), PGCE - Still the official forum prankster and crude remarker  Sorry  I'll behave now.
