    Thanks for the well wishes fella's, very, very much appreciated. Lying here in a hospital bed on drip feeds etc aint much fun, but got to give it to Aintree hospital (Fazakerley) they got booming internet which keeps me amused!!!
    Looking forward to getting fixed, getting home and hitting the boozer for a lager frenzy!!!
    Until then, the racing and you lot of reprobates will have to do!!!!:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

    Sorry to hear that Mick but good you are being positive because that is a quality that is underestimated in times such as this.

    Best wishes Mick. You seem to remain positive, I really don't know how, and that is a huge credit to you Sir.

    Cheers Stick, I've got to remain positive, otherwise it's roll over and die! And there are plenty worse off than me in this place. Or more to the point, go to Clatterbridge Cancer Centre on the Wirral and pop your head in the kiddies ward. Heart breaking and makes me feel damn lucky.
    Anyway....I aint gonna croak til Squire gets it's head in front again....and even then I'm not!!!!

    i was in hosp for a couple of weeks after a stroke 1 year ago Mick, comparatively not so bad, hope you recover well. Also hope you don't have a nutter in one of the beds opposite getting up at 3am, trashing the ward and assaulting the nurses, as happened during my stay. As a nearby ex-Royal Marine observed, ' thought I was back in a war zone, I was reaching for my tin hat.'

    I hope so Oddy, just had a fair dabble at what I thought was a generous 2/1. Good luck.

    Hawkwind, that doesn't sound very pleasant at all. Other than the 1st night here, when we had the pleasure of a screaming banshee through the night, it's very quiet. Having ones own room helps too!!!

    Stretch, thanks for the well wishes!

    Whilst you've had your feet up all day resting watching the Nags and no
    doubt some lovely nurses some of us have had a terrible day at work!

    All the best fella, hope it works out the best it can for you.
