My wife wasn't in the most calm state of mind when she asked me to take her TENs machine off. I made the mistake of turning both dials the wrong way resulting in whacking up both the voltage & frequency to the max .

It's only amusing now. It wasn't 10 years ago.
Amusing stories we have had some laughs over this - When Tracey went in to have Harry we went in to hospital at 5pm as planned, Tracey was asked to get into a bed and so on. she was sat up in bed tucking into a 'roast dinner' of sorts in the hospital. I am sat watching her, bloody starving. Nurse comes in and checks her and says we need to go to the delivery room straight away you are x amount dialated already.

So off we toddle with Tracey in Bed to the delivery room. Gets in the delivery room and we are sat waiting and waiting. Tracey ends up with bad back pain about 8.45pm while I am sat next to the bed saying you will be okay take deep breaths etc... it was goodnight viennna for me as I fainted yes 'fainted' and keeled over on to the bed next to her. The next thing I know both of us are side by side with me on a recliner with more of the staff seeing to me than Tracey. At this point Tracey is saying excuse me can I have more gas and air please. The next thing Harry arrives with the both of us side by side in two beds.

It was like something from a carry on film. Hope its not the same this time round. Mind you I had had nothing to eat since breakfast. Some story and intro to the world for Harry to learn about in years to come.
