Got myself an ambulance ride!

[Stuart]

Thanks

[Jo]

Thanks Terry 

Mines nice and pale pink  healed very well ,

Eric says that Pink may be a better colour description but it is not the "faint white line" I was promised yet

Most of my machines are shades of Elephant Grey 


Dave: have you worked out what you are going to be doing while off on the Sickie? Maybe your Wallaby would like to see more of you  ... I assume you will be paid for the time off

Depends on work and my mobility....my shop is very cramped

[steamer]

Wallaby is on the list...but again....we'll see how a full leg brace works in the shop....I'm doubting it....

If you can get in the shop...it doesn't matter what you do...so long as you're enjoying what you're doing or not doing. 

Had a bum day today myself...got in the car, turned on the radio...and immediately 'End of the Line' began playing.
I was smiling all the way home.

"Well, it's all right".

My favorite line..."even if you're old and gray...you still have something to say".

I always forget myself...but don't sweat the small things. And they're all small things.

Dave: the sooner they do the surgery the sooner you will be getting better 

When then did my opp in December the hospital advised 6 weeks , but they also said check with your insurance company or you could be driving without any cover,

We all know what wriggly outfits they are

As mine was a vertical tummy cut about 200mm it could have affected my core strength for control

Stuart

Competition  Surus' escape route is 9" long and it is still red 

Hospital said I was allowed to drive as soon as I could use the brakes. Insurance company said that unless Hospital/doctor had contacted DVLC then they would cover me. It was me who chose to delay things. 6 months on and it is the tummy squashing caused when driving that is the problem not the core strength.

Jo

Sounds like we need a thread of who has the longest scar (pictures get extra points).  Just for the record.........mine is 11" with a nice intersecting 5" scar.

Not sure we should go there.  But for what it's worth...while mine is only 5"...I did walk around for about 9 months with a tube sticking out of my chest and everyday sticking a syringe in it to squirt some saline in. I still have a supply of syringes and needles. Great for applying glue or cutting oil.

Some might say I coulda shoulda sued. But it was an unusual problem and I can't fault them for trying.

Tube is long gone. Problem is still there.

This is one of those conversations that it is so much fun to walk in in the middle of....

Pictures of model engine castings are preferred  Although I have noticed that whenever I try to photograph ones on the dining room table I seem to get Surus in the picture

Good luck tomorrow Stuart

Thanks Jo

I am sure the 4 hours is just a means of increasing the car parking fee  With my CT scan it was not that long

Jo

[Stuart]

I had  a CT scan in A&E yes very quick

this is not a CT scan but a special one for this rare Cancer that the took out hence the wait for the radioactive dye to soak in, bet they rub you over with a gigercounter  bit like a ultrasound but with radiation

Its not the parking fee its finding a place to park    thats the bind they have built on most of the car parks at Nottingham City hospital , so to make sure we use a taxi but you have less stress

this is the rub A&E are at Queens Hospital Notthingham QMC which is served by the tram network but not City but QMC do not have the scanner 

there are other methods to get there but they take a long time so darn the expense as you say save till you retire then spend it

we are well blessed with both of us doing hospital visits Linda has a very high Platelet count so taxi firm is getting a lot of business

will let you know when I know hopeful that the got it all as I was told

a worried  Stuart

[steamer]

Good luck Stuart
