Overwhelming wishes guys ...... I'll take these with me, thanks so much. I'll be on here today and tomorrow, and hopefully next weekend too!
Thanks Rudy, thanks Barney. To answer your question Rudy - it's, well, erm going! I'm obviously apprehensive about the surgery, having been told at one stage that my heart isn't strong enough to survive anaesthetic, they had a change of mind and now think it will be ok. Doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, but it's like a 2 horse race with joint favourites - hope I've picked the right one!
The other horse was withdrawn at the declaration stage Reebs, so it's a w/o. See you in the Winners Enclosure mate
Some good news folks. Reebs came through his operation and is in recovery Will give further update as soon as I hear any more
