I'm Hoping This Is My Dad's "Wake-Up Call."

I won't go into detail here because some of you might be eating but - basically, my Dad got out of bed and did a poo right there and then..and he knew nothing about it. In other words, the thing slid out before he had the chance to get to the bathroom (which is downstairs) and when he finally got on the loo he did another major poo. Made quite a mess by all accounts. Now, my Dad drinks alcohol every day of his life. He has done for as long as I can remember. Smokes cigars too. On Sunday he goes to the Club, has about 4 pints of bitter I think he drinks, then 4 cans of lager back at home at night-time. He also decided on Sunday that eating a full bag of Liquorice Allsorts was a good idea. No doubt my Dad will make the excuse that it was the liquorice that made him "go" like that. But Mum knows different and has "advised" him to cut down on the plonk. Will he listen? I don't know..but he'll be 75 in March. Mum has said it did worry him when the poo dropped out like that so - you never know, he might drink 2 instead of 4, that'll be a start at least!
