Ah bless dear Apple. My way or the highway. Never been near them. I tell a lie- my film tutor had an Apple 2 we used to play with. That would be 1981 or 2.

Following a meeting of Unesco, Liverpool has become only the third place in nearly half a century to be stripped of its world heritage status. The UN’s heritage body concluded that the “outstanding universal value” of Liverpool’s waterfront had been destroyed by new buildings, including Everton football club’s new £500m stadium.

She didn't make it past the last one. A great person, and we reminded close. I'm sorry your ex-wife had such suffering. One of the things about cancer, of course, is that it can recur. I've always been grateful to my oncologist for being willing to say the "cure" word rather than "remission". Survivors always have to be watchful and that is another reason it was not a good idea to start banning us from classes. If some classes were too crowded it would have been simple to ask that long-term survivors not sign up for them. We would have listened to something sensible and caring like that. I'm sure your ex-wife was lucky to have you giving her support. it makes such a difference. Paulette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Rooney Posted July 21, 2021 Author Share Posted July 21, 2021 What's next? Will they be downgrading my old Brooklyn neighbourhood? Winston Churchill's mother grew up two blocks from me. Okay, a little before my time. And what about the Mersey waterfront? Will they remove the Beatles statutes? Will they turn one of the Three Graces into a pizza joint? And what do the Chinese have to do with Liverpool? Other than being immigrants, I mean? I was gonna check what's being said in our recent political post, but I seem to have misplaced it.

John Mitchell Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Huge amounts of "overseas" investment has turned downtown Vancouver into a total architectural mess. At one time, mountain and ocean views abounded. Now it's all spooky urban canyons and forests of nondescript condo towers. There is something to be said for economic stagnation... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normspics Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 My bad thing is I’m having to wear a heart monitor for three days for diagnostic reasons, it might be a reaction to my 2nd jab.

Around 10 years ago my wife had pads attached to her due to an irregular heartbeat, atrial fibrillation, but only for 24 hours. It cleared up on its own, never returning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I’ve had a monitor 4 or 5 times. Once recording beats of 260 per minute. Medicine to help that. Then another significant time I ended up with a cardiac ablation. It was to be worn for 30 days, and I was into the third week before the life-threatening arrhythmia manifested, although I was having many other irregularities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started to have heart Arrhythmia or fluttering of the heart sensation after 48 hours from the the covid vaccination, ended up in the ER and this is the follow up from a cardiologist. The symptoms are so much better better before being fitted with this Holter device and of course the ER doctor prescribed a baby aspirin daily which has helped enormously. Tomorrow Friday it comes off thank goodness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow Friday it comes off thank goodness. They are a pain to wear. Try it for 3 weeks (last week cut short to see a cardiologist) and see how you like it. Back when I had one for the first time, it was huge. Like having a D800, actually bigger and heavier, on a criss cross strap over your chest. Like strap over right shoulder, box hanging under the left arm. Every time I changed sides in bed, I had to wake up enough to flop the thing over my body. To bathe, I had to take the leads off, then apply new pads after. Nowadays they are so small in comparison. Each time I wore one, it was smaller than the last. Maybe one day we’ll just plug in an earpiece. 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
