Mrs R is being operated on at this very moment, so I'm feeling a bit nervous myself.

she'll be fine. bit not too hard because I don't want her jealous!


how did you get a Saturday operation though?

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

Thanks

Luckily she's got a deal with BUPA through the BMA. Given this is her 4th op since her accident 11 months ago, she seems to be getting her money's worth.

My OH has been adding up my costs and working out what is left... that new financial year could be really handy! We are already having to pay some of the anaesthetics costs because of the T&C's and his affiliation, but given my asthma, bronchiectasis and tracheomalacia, each op I get through is a bill we don't mind paying the excess for!

I've not picked up many details of what happened to your wife other than that she had an accident, is full of metal and you're obviously concerned.
Hope it goes well

Thanks

Last March she went over the handlebars of her bike and broke both arms. Those have been fixed but a recent MRI scan picked up major damage to C5 and C6 discs in her neck. So, poor lass, has seen quite a bit of hospital. She and SNSSO seem to be competing for spinal surgeons' attention at the mo

Sounds horrible. Hopefully she'll be all sorted this time.

Bikes.... Rubbish

Puncture on the carbon after a 20 mile spin to Bristol. Then the non drive side of the BB on the steel decides it doesn't like me. Kept working loose and looks like the thing is possibly threaded. Left my mates to cycle whilst I pushed it back to Easton and now sat in the pub... Every cloud hey. I knew we should have used a new BB and not the 30 year old one that came with the chainset..

If you are already on the cider, it's going to be interesting how you manage any judging tomorrow!

Cheers

Just waiting for the 500 to appear in my bank from @User14044 and then I will be buying a dartboard, darts, nice new printer and using the @summerdays suggested selection method. Either that or just let @Spinney win as most people think she should

And if Rocky's £500 fails to materialise ......

Then it will be up to the artistic merit of the photography as usual.

I know this is OT but Mrs R is back from her op. All seems to have gone well.

Good to hear.

Great news. You can breath again now.

You've just reminded me I was going to go and see some snowdrops I spied from the car near Elberton. Where are those planted, along side a road?
