Don't worry, it was probably an improvement on the only telephone conversation I had.I've not spoken to anybody today
Them: morning, this is xyz community support physio. Your gp has put in a request for you to have physio at home.
Me: yes
Them: can you come into one of our clinics?
Me: no
Them: pause, ok, we'll ring you in a few weeks then with an appointment.
Me: few choice words silently spoken...
Me : civil explanation given instead
Them: I'll red flag it for you. Goodbye.

A bit of background...
The wife likes Daniel O'Donnell, she also likes Roy Orbison.
Maybe 20 years ago, we were watching GMTV I think and Daniel O'Donnell was a guest, singing one of his songs. He appeared in front of the camera....with his suit jacket buttoned incorrectly, so one side was lower that the other
.
I almost collapsed in laughter, the wife was unhappy about my almost tearful loss of control at one of her favourite artists, one of those moments when you could laugh and snigger uncontrollably.
For many years, every time Daniel O'Donnell gets mentioned (which isn't THAT often) , I snigger and gesture with both hands in front of me, indicating a mock jacket that's been buttoned incorrectly.. The wife scowls at my mocking 
We're at my mums, there's a Roy Orbison CD on the side, the wife askes mum...
'Is this yours mum ?'
'Yes...do you like Roy Orbison ?
'Yes, I do
'
At this point I interject...
'I wonder if he can do his jacket up properly' and start sniggering
Mum looks confused
...the wife looked at me 
...'Oh for gawlds sake, you're not STILL on about that are you ?'
20 years of fun I've had with that , thankyou Daniel, if only you knew.

One of those moments when you think....did he really say that ???
Colleagues were telling me..they'd been talking to Peter the cleaner, hes a bit of a 'Norris' or a 'Norman' (apologies if thats your name), waffles on and talks a load of old cobblers, but a nice enough fella. So he'd said to one guy...
'If I won the lottery, I'd give you half'
He'd also said to the other guy....
If I won the lottery, I'd give you half as well'
Second guy replies...
'Youre not going to have much left then then'
Peter instantly replied...
'No, it'll be ok if i win enough
'
