A pt today was aghast at my rebooking her for a general tx on a Friday, " Oh no, you can't cut toenails on Fridays"
Are there any other out there?

Admin, I take it my chances of getting that treadmill 'normal' gait view are(is?) not good?

And Admin would you let me know about my current status re 'buying beers', thanks, mark

 

My own mother won't have her nails cut on a Friday. I'm reminded of the Young Ones sketch:

Alexi Sayle as the Jester to Spazpecker, an old man in stocks:

Jester: "What's your crime Spazpecker?"
Spazpecker: "Whistling on a Tuesday"
Jester "oh, you are a bastard. Would you rather have your eyeballs removed and replaced with hot toffee apples?"

Something like that.

 

may be they thought i would be there on the particular friday mark?

 

Here you go Mark, choose carefully!!!!


Cut them on Monday, you cut them for health;
cut them on Tuesday, you cut them for wealth;
cut them on Wednesday, you cut them for news;
cut them on Thursday, a new pair of shoes;

cut them on Friday, you cut them for sorrow;
cut them on Saturday, see your true love tomorrow;
cut them on Sunday, the devil will be with you all the week.

 

No. Here you go, Mark.

Far more entertaining..

 

Some pts find it abhorrent when you examine their worn shoes on your desk. Ive wrestled many a pt to relieve them of their reebok classics.

 

I thought it was only unlucky if you put new (unworn) shoes on the table?

YES. That’s one series that did make Aust TV. One of my wife’s and I favourites

Stuart, haven’t you got some bx hypothesis to research, to dazzle me with Monday?

Excellent! We know who to query in future re ditties.

Apparently it also applies to “onto chairs”. Maybe it’s like ‘chinese whispers’ each country adds on a bit!
