    Thats really sad.

    I got the third leg of my trifecta last week....mum and bro have been diagnosed with Hemocromatosis (sp?). Thank God it has nothing on the first 2 problemos but thats 3 MASSIVE smacks to the head last week. It means that they have high levels of lead in their blood which can clot and block lungs/liver, heart etc. So the only real prob is having to go get blood taken approx once a month so such a thing wont happen.

    As bro said "its WAY better than having type 1 diabetes". I gotta get myself tested very soon as its highly genetic. 70/30 Ive got it too I reckon

    :(

    One of my best friends has that...as well as his brother and his dad. They found it really really REALLY late in his dad and he got liver problems...then he got cancer of the liver and died 2 years ago. He was an EXTREME case.

    Scot and his brother have to go get de-blooded every couple of months. They can't even use the blood for anything else either -- it's useless and just gets thrown away.

    How those slags do it makes me ill. Rather stick it in a car exhaust with the engine running

    your getting hit hard huh :(
    what do they say ... comes in threes

    look - go do some research, find out as much as you can. Im not belittling this at all, so please dont take this the wrong way - but lots of chronic illness's look terrible, but can be managed ok. Especially with early diagnosis and getting treatment on track as soon as possible.

    genealogy has a lot to answer for tho, hey :o

    you try & keep happy - big ask ... just think of us :)

    Abso fuggin lutely belted champ. A friend had a baby boy on friday so I thought that was the 3rd thing (good and bad) but nope.

    Mate compared to a death and a cancer this thing dont even rate on the scale trust me but it still aint good. No way take it the wrong way - you are correct.

    No worries on the research. My bro is a medical leturer, professor blah blah and knows the human body back to front - trust me on this!! The little prick will prob just take his own blood and test it - if not his boss/colleagues would.

    Ironically he actually teaches and researches/tests all this stuff 5 days a week. As he siad the other day "my GP didnt even bother explaining it to me as my knowledge on it was 5 fold than his which he knew"

    Im happy this week. The hardest parts are done. Things can only get better. Life is in motion and Im at the front of the line not stuck (Pearl Jam reference)

    i paid mine up again the other week, and even tho i knew it had gone thru fine, i still didnt get my confirmation email till y/day - which still always gives me a scare -
    ' Welcome to the Ten Club'

    i always think WTF - theyve fucked my m/ship up! ive lost my number!!!

    :) - but its just the standard speil for joining or renewing
    ALWAYS check though!!!!!!! When I renewed mine, just before getting tix for the '06 tour.......they fucked up and gave me a whole new number :eek: After losing my original number a couple of years before that I freaked!!! I contacted them straight away though and it was sorted pretty quickly......but if I hadn't have checked, I wouldn't have realized until I picked up my tix on the day :eek: :(

    Down is a great song!! I go to bed listening to my ipod every night and always finish up by listening to the same few songs before turning it off to go to sleep....Down is one of those songs :)

    dont worry - after the initial freak out i always look at the number! no probs for me yet.

    my only real m/ship problem is i just wish id joined in the days i used to look at that 10c addy in the cd booklet & wonder where the letter would go ......

    ten on cassette :) - was it you i was raving on about to cassettes and shit or rob & stu????

    i had ten on cd - still have the old original, is looking mighty battered & cracked these days, & yea, i remember looking at the address & thinking 'heh, 10club, cool name.....'

    jeeezze - imagine just for a second where we would be standing every single bloody show anywhere in the world if we had just bought a fucking stamp!!!!!!!!!!!!


    btw - i still play that old battered ten - its doing another round in the car as we speak - vintage pj sounds just as good as a nice old smooth bottle of red tastes going down ;)

    Yeah ....first 3 releases I originally only got on cassette :o and I've still got them (dug them out the other day). I don't think I'd even heard of CD's when I bought 10 (which was pretty much as soon as it was released.)
    I didn't start on PJ CD's until No Code (and replaced the first 3 with CD's as well).

    Sheesh I'm showing my age with this post!!!!! :eek:

    It wasn't me you had that chat with....must've been Rob n Stu :)

    Well....there's free accom; for all of you that come over for the Perth gig!!! I'd LOVE it!!! :D (Stu gets the floor, naturally).

    As for Brissy....I'm pretty sure Kyra likes us?? :o

    But.....as far as interstate accom....I think there's enough of us that'll be willing to share accom that it'll work out pretty cheap :) not to mention a hell of a lot of fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
