So long story short you didn't have an acute bleed that required a fairly large quantity of blood to get you close to normal.

Long story short, they gave me 4 units of blood and I didn't die.

They keep telling me I need SPF infinity; sometimes I even use it.

Keep in mind all this with the blood happened a year ago. I think it was a year ago today that I left after the first five-day stay, in the middle of 11 days of continuous constipation. IIRC, I left the hospital on Sunday and finally cleared myself out on Tuesday. (I had the same problem last weekend, only not as severe.) Stayed home from work all week. Then I felt so weak, I went back to the ER around Labor Day and that's when I got the blood and was there another five days.

Actually, it's a buck and a quarter quarter staff, but I'm not telling him that.

If that is a Yeoman of the guard he's missing his diagonal gun strap, which is the most obvious difference.

You can see the diagonal straps in this picture:

When they're not on ceremonial duty they have a much less complicated uniform anyway. This one:

Answers like these could see you ordered to the tower. I'm sure the successors to my first RQMS, later Chief Yeoman Warder Copestake, will look after you appropriately.

Please note that due to the traditional nature of this event, late arrivals will not be admitted. The ceremony will conclude at 22:05 hrs (10.05pm) after which all visitors will be escorted to the exit. There are no toilet or refreshment facilities available. Photography is not permitted during any part of the ceremony.

It's all taken very very seriously, you mustn't even cough .... believe me!



Oh I believe you...
