But, it's such good fun getting to the "plastered" state.

All the best from me too!!

What with Teddy in a bag and so much plastering, it looks like he's in for some good, and well-deserved, pampering!

Good luck for both of you!!

I had a text from him (he shouldn't have because of hosp rules) at 12.30 and he was back in the ward, fully awake and when I went in to see him, looking jolly well on the whole, probably because the anaesthetist, a Scotsman, said he'd injected a single malt. He has a half cast just cradling the lower leg and foot at present, until any swelling goes, then he'll be into the hard stuff.

He sends warm thanks to all those who have sent messages. Says it's wonderful that people who don't know him at all have been thinking of him and wishing him well.

Lesley, all the very best to Roger post op and hoping he will be free from pain at last..... I would like to send you a video via email which would entertain you both -exercising your sense of humour is an essential part of recovery - it is 6mg is that too much?  I would like to have posted it here if I can work out how to as it is not on YouTube  ::)

Found it on YouTube - what a laugh, such dedicated real humour, almost Chaplinesque!
