This is about firextinguishers. Get your prostate checked and fixed , you'll be ****ing like a fire extinguisher afterwards , something you've actually forgotten you could do if you're over 50. Remember when you could stand at the latrine and write your name and the thunderous sound on the stainless?.......well I can do it again now. So could you.

Be a man and face it....dont walk around with a catheter to be changed every month and a leg bag to empty every day....get it fixed.

please......dont PM me to discuss it......see your GP or your favourite urologist.

The irony of my one was he insisted on Surgery so he could have a shufti around in there Fair enough, but recent events with a new urologist show that was a bad move & a couple of months ago I found that he was the only bloke who until recently here did the surgery & all done these days by remote. Of course #1 had retired. &%#@*(%#

He at that time disapproved of this method but procedures change for the better & & so I is stuck with the following problem. No Bag or Catheter though just my good friend TENA. Probably a better payment with Surgery. Have been back & had a Urethral sling fitted but still no better.

Ho hum such is life.


Oh if only I could turn the clock back!



On Fire Extinguisher. Iota. Glad to see the one fitted appears to be a 2 KG. You never know just when one will need that extra burst.

I had a prostate rebore....as I described it to my Urologist after the op "I now pee like a horse"!

Not bloody likely, sadly.

Do they still make these?

Jeeeeezuz! Having had Horses stabled here in the good old days of a Farm property when the nags ****ed in the exact same spot for some reason, a couple of years ago I discovered such a well worn hole in the stable floor & when I put my head in & yelled out the answer was in Chinese I think it was.
"Wot you want Aussie? You want flied lice?" it said.

You can imagine my surprise, & was taken aback so much I fell into the hole. Mind you, horses were stabled here on & off for over 100 years, so I'm told by the Rescue Services that retrieved me.




If you believe that you will believe anything, but the hole was true, but not the Chinese Chef. Possibly.

Dunno, but you da man John, as it was in my imagination only.

Maybe not for AC fires, but a Parachute mounted in the tail or near the cockpit can let a plane down sort of gently.


Like to see one used on an A380 though.
There'd be coffee cups & Laptops etc all over the joint.

Seems they are still in existence & still make/made Fire suppression systems for Ac including Concord. As it happens they are part of United Technologies which Carrier Air Conditioning also are & a Company I had many pleasant & successful years with as a Dealer.

Only if they forgot to admonish folk to put the tray table in the stowed position...

Bags not clean the toilets...
