... and the Spiders from Mars ...
Ooooohhhh … I feel sick … aaaaagh what's that? A giant spider?
A snake? Damn I'd better give up the Bloody Marys quick-smart!
Hang on, what's old Cyril doing? He's trying to climb out
a window. And what about Dottie? Stone me, she's swinging
on a lightbulb singing the theme from Callan!
What has got into this place?
Everything was fine at the Heaven's Close rest home - there
was a beaut soup with buttered bread for dinner, we all had
our kero baths, sat down and played strip Scrabble for a while
and then we had our medicine before turning in for the night.
There are a host of tablets to knock down, but they are excellent
for our health. Lots of Vitamin supplements and the like ….
Wow … take a look at that statue of Harry Potter emerging
from the walls. Woooooooooow … there's Dobby!
Bloody hell, something is definitely not right. Hang on,
who made these damn tabbies - uh, oh, it seems that they belonged
to Pan Pharmaceuticals, the processing mob who have had a
slight problem with the ingredients in some of their pills.
So much so that their licence to produce the goods has been
taken back faster than an election promise.
And so it should have been as almost 700 items produced by
Pan have been recalled. You can check the complete list of
recalled products by clicking
here.
The problem was exposed after a number of very scary incidents
- including someone trying to get out of a plane in flight,
another trying to jump off a boat, and many reports of hallucinatory
goings on.
A three-month investigation by The Therapeutic Goods Administration
led to the recall and you have to give them a big cheer for
having done their job so diligently and well.
The whole issue is a bit of a pisser, however, as I was a
vitamin and alternative medicine fiend - hey, maybe that's
why I've been so nice. Now rack off.
