Thanks Natty Thats one of the reasons he was here - to discuss textphones, doorbells etc - we just didn't get that far before i threw him out (ok asked him to leave whilst being *slightly* hysterical)
Thanks all
erm Natty i can't ring them i'm deaf - thats the whole point of the visit
I have composed a long e-mail and sent it off, hopefully he is just a rep and not a true reflection of their working practice. But it was very very hard to sit through
Had the most awful visit from the rnid rep bloke. He says i am not normal and need to accept it - i got angry and cried. This is not a good week, too much c**p floating around my head now
wibble i seem to have booked an appointment with the rnid to discuss textphones, won't this mean actually facing upto being deaf instead of just ignoring it wibble
Why is it my dogs always wake up full of beans and raring to go? I feel like a zombie this morning and they're boinging off the walls

I am watching a programme on National Geographic about the London bombings and the influence the web and religion has on suicide bombers. It's thought provoking.
Have been to the vets for Henry's 1 week post op check up and all is well
The insurance company (via Dixons Group) have offered hubby a £1500 Sony Vaio in replacement of the one that wasa stolen - i'm thinking he could be pleased
Sammi Squigg - If you already feel less stressed the redunancy is obviously meant to be - you can go play with elephants now
Good Luck at the vets Poppy
