Pete, re stearman, I would have thought that it was possible to injure yourself more than KST just climbing into one!! there wasn’t even a speck of blood ,and she had a white dress on! I think the Pheonix was built to look flimsy but did have an FAA certificate; I certainly wouldn’t want to be in the front cockpit of one (stearman) when it was put down like that! (I half expected the pilot to spring out of the rear cockpit shouting woof! woof!, Treat your womam like yer kite etc etc. Good to hear your son’s ok Re mis diagnosis,if you want a second opinion don’t ask another doctor, and no we don’t “do” medical dramas I don’t need reminding how fragile life is , or her constant criticism ,of something I have no specialist knowledge in -actually thats almost everything really!!

Nice one, ok, I except that KST could at least have had a nose bleed, but it would have spoilt that dress.

Incidentally, it was the 5th doctor that finally worked it out, and he was Addenbrookes registrar, top man, he was the business, the lumbar puncture he performed to prove his point was not pleasant to watch, and they thought that he himself had come down with the disease the week after, fortunately for us mortals it was flu, we can’t afford to lose people like him.
