It's Good To Talk (especially about the things people don't usually talk about)

Chris Evans | 05:17 UK time, Friday, 29 July 2011

So following on from the colonoscopy adventure, sooo many people have contacted me thanking me for talking about it on the radio - many of them currently working in the prevention of bowel/colon cancer. The more I learn about it, the crazier it is that people don't get checked.

Can I thank you for all your thank yous, but there's really no need. That's what shows like mine are for. I simply wouldn't be doing my job properly if I brushed something so important and worthy of exposure under the carpet.

Peace and Love (and sunshine today !)

Bring on the weekend.

    Chris, don't be so humble. It's not talked about enough!

    Hi Chris: lovely to see you this morning! Yes, even though you are right when you say you have just been "doing your job properly" it still must be said that your honesty and no-nonsense approach to all this will have helped so many people get the courage to have themselves checked out. xx

    Mary: you must have been up with the lark this morning!

    Hi Gingembre and AliB.

    Greetings Christoof Boy - The Recently Operated On & ALL Blog Operatatives.... Operating In This Area Of The WWW. ....

    Bingo Star 'ere...

    CLP - Am 'VERY' glad ter 'ear ALL 'as gone most nice with yer finding the cancer.... Joking aside for a moment - Seriously am glad yer found the cancer early & got it removed ASAP before it got out of 'and!!!!!!!!

    This is the 'MADNESS' in the UK.... We MOT our cars... Get out boilers checked regularly... etc.... Yet there's no proper annual MOT for ourselves!!!!!!!

    If we all checked for cancer.... And let's face it with all the radiation around from microwave ovens... ter mobile phones... ter computer dongles... ter fancy electronics in modern cars/ 'ousehold products like tvs... even fuel gives off carsonagenical fumes.... A think this could be the reason for so much cancer around!!!!!!!!!!
    Our bodies are being subjected ter doses of radiation more than the natural amount we get from the sun!!!!!!!!!!

    Which is why right now.... Am off ter me local Boots store ter ask one of the very friendly female assistants if they will check me forthe same problem that CLP' ad!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wish me luck all..... Am goin' in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Tatty bye!!!!!
