a pound is 2.2 kilos, therefore 20 kilos is 44 pounds - 70 kilos is 154 pounds and 110 kilos is 242 pounds  ;D

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

Hey Sluff....I wouldn't be brave enough to suggest putting you in a corner!!!  Thanks grammarlady for answering Twirl's question.  Sorry I was a bit slow off the mark Twirl. I have had the plumbers here today about the plumbing for dialysis.  I'll be doing dialysis in the bathtub in the bathroom because that is evidently the only place I can do it!!!!   Probably shouldn't have paid him for that advice.  What do your reckon, ignorance or total stupidity!!!!

In the bathtub?? what the...???

I know you need a fresh water supply for those things but that's taking it to an extreme....

although come to think of it, make it a jacuzzi bath and I'd be there with bells on... that would make dialysis MUCH more relaxing... a few candles... some bubbles.... oh yeah.....

so what if I'd come out like a leathery shriveled fruit after 5 hours........  :urcrazy;
