As I explained top ToMoS, when cancer survival rates are spoken about, it's 5 year survival - so 5 years from end of treatment - and Stage 3 Bladder Cancer does only have a 30% survival rate.

If I'm still here in 2024, that means I've done it

To the other posts - cheers

Good to hear mate, I'm always cheered when I see someone beating cancer

My missus was Stage 3 breast cancer and next year August (fingers crossed) she'll be in remission. She's had skin cancer since, but they're not secondary to the breast cancer (Basel-Cell Sarcomas) and were cut out fairly routinely. She's on a multitude of tablets which have their own side-effects but hopefully next year, she can put all that behind her.

Fingers crossed for Mrs GCRO.

Pass on my regards dude

Again, we’re missing the meaning of “little”. Battering the shackle-draggers’ twitching corpse isn’t a little thing.

Well Smith is a little **** and to see him nutmeg'd for a run out had me in stitches, does that count

[Johnny Byrne's Boots]

^^^ Shame it didn't take out 'middle stump' on the way through

[FreeWheeling]

would have been worth him being not out

Edit - wish they’d just shut the f*** up now. My kids are trying to sleep.

We had a new PM join three weeks ago, seems totally useless and not to understand IT (or much else to be fair). In the first week he insisted that I (as the architect) should produce the project plan for him as "you understand all the tasks and who should do it". This morning he has just commented on the plan, having had it two weeks - "I don't think that your first task is very professional" - The first task in the plan was "Invent and build a time machine" :lol:

After seeing my consultant today for a quick follow up, now not having any cancer related hospital appointments for 6 months

Just seen this, great news DL.

Seconded, All the best DL.

But would that really be down to the IT department?

I mean, it's not like you'd be able to turn the damn thing off and then back on again is it.

All the best fella, must be great to come through all that.

In this place everything is down to the IT department it seems and to me a time machine would be hardware with software installed so definitely IT. We don't just turn things off and back on again, sometimes we stand and stare at them.

IMO you need to go straight to his boss and ask why he was hired if he doesn't know how to plan and doesn't understand any IT. I've actually worked with loads of excellent IT PMs throughout my career, so the bad ones always stick out like a sore arse. The ones who are always flustered, panicking, give blank looks in meetings, insist that the company you both work for "does all the processes wrong", aggressively insist on you picking up the paperwork & comms because they haven't got a f*cking clue...

A bit like when you hear anyone say the initial letters of SQL, rather than just saying it as "sequel", and you instantly think "how have you got a job in IT?".
