“Hi Joe, havn’t seen you for a while.”
“Hello Fred, no I havn’t been so good. Had some trouble with my digestion.”
“Sorry to hear that, were you in hospitable.”
“No, the doc gave me some of those blue pills, and said it should do the trick, but I will have to go to see him again. I feel like an air balloon sometimes.”
“I know that feeling. Tell the doc to give you that green powder. You can mix it with some water and drink it before the meal. Works wonders and the air escapes much better.”
“Really, must tell the doc. Frieda has the same problem, but she is always complaining. You could think she was the only one with her problems.”
“I know what you mean, my Joan is always on about her aches and pains, especially when she is ironing. I told her to leave it, but she said you cannot just leave everything. And then she found I could help her. How can I help her when I have my own problems. Look at that foot.”
“Oh that doesn’t look so good. A bit swollen around the toe nail.”
“Doc said it is an ingrown toe nail, but I am sure it is turning septic, so how am I to be able to help with the ironing. Joan can be glad that I am happy with a plate of soup for dinner. At least she doesn’t have to cook so much.”
“Know what you mean, our womenfolk should be glad that we bear our pains and are not complaining all the time.”
