As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Cheers boys. Some laugh out loud stuff there and cheered me up no end.
Don't worry about the forum being modded. A week away from work, lying here in hospital.... if anything I'll be on here more often, you poor bastards....
Sid, you will be made a mod over my dead body... ooh, hang on... too far...?
Don't say that you know Sid would do "Anything" to get to be Mod....
I know buddy, I know, believe me!
But if he sends me one more photo of him in a number 3 jersey with an old style 1990s clunky big old Nokia rammed up his Gary I'm banning him for life!
Ah fuck it .... I wasn't gonna put this on here but feeling shit so here goes.
Been in hospital since 8am yesterday morning. They found some weird holes and lesions in some of the disks in my spine and there is some fucking weird shit growing in them.... it's either osteophytes which are also called "bone spurs" (what a cunty name!) or the fucking dreaded Big C.
I had an MRI a couple weeks ago which showed up some shit and led to a lower spinal CT Scan, which led to them hospitalising me, which led to a contrast dye CT Scan of my full spine, and about 25 pints worth of blood tests...
Am now being kept in for the next week or so to undergo a full body PET Scan, a camera into my bladder and a Colonoscopy.... I've already warned them they're gonna find some chick's lost finger nail from 1998 up there....
Joking aside, the missus is distraught and we haven't told the kids anything past dad's in for some check ups. I'm genuinely worried, gotta be honest.
So if you are of a religious persuasion maybe say a prayer for old DB. If not I will accept kind thoughts or even a fingers crossed.
Not being of a religious nature I still hope that if there's something up there that can help you then it/they will.

Being a Pagan I'll ask the Keltic & Norse Gods to help, I don't do much praying myself but the brother is a Druid, I'll have a word with him, he knows all about this stuff.
Airmed of the Tuatha de Danaan, Goddess of Healing, Eir of the Valkyries, Goddess of medicine, we call on you to bless & heal our fellow Gooner DB10.

Just knocked across this thread now, sorry to hear that news DB, hope everything goes well for you my friend and you’ve a speedy recovery.
Fingers, toes, pecker - I’ve the whole lot crossed here for ya man.
Don’t worry about the van, I’ll continue the nightly drive arounds until you’re ready to get back behind the wheel again.
Oh and let me know what hospital you’re in and I’ll get Dirty Doris to visit and give you some hand relief under the sheets, she’s a real pro.
You’re welcome
Get well soon sir.
Cheers Rodders me old mate! Fingers crossed all will go well.
But seriously don't lose that van again please. The last time it took ages to clean out all those drunk slags in the back and two of them wanted to fight me with their suspiciously large hands.....
Thanks lads for the humour, the good wishes, and the sound advice.
Weirdly at the moment anyway the worst part is the boredom and inconvenience of it. Anybody who has been in hospital for long periods of time for treatment, you genuinely have my sympathies and undying respect. I'm going a bit stir crazy - and I've only been in 3 days out of a prospective 5 or 7 days!
Do you want me to PM you some Nurse Porn Links mate?????
Thank you old boy. But I am well stocked. Well stocked I say! Huzzah!!
