I had an emergency first responder course yesterday (I'm a day late posting), which is normal language is a first-aid training course. So in theory I can now assist you if you injure yourself in my presence. In theory.

Finishing touches
"OCD can be crippling," said Dr. Fraud, watching as his patient carefully and patiently patted down every square centimentre of the chaise longue they would be sitting on. "Are you done?"
"These are the finishing touches," said Michael, now certain that there was nothing on the chaise that he hadn't checked for safety.
"Butterfingers," said Dr. Fraud pleasantly, spilling his Sherbert Fountain on the couch and ignoring Michael's pained groan.

Greg - yes, and I you. In theory. Aren't first aid courses great?

Hah. The good doctor is, as usual, delightfully... I'm not actually sure what word I'm looking for here. Perhaps 'delightfully himself' will do though.
