Oh I will!!!?

All done. The immediate result is, quote, "The aneurysm is completely healed. The result is excellent."

I will see the doctor or nurse practitioner again in 2-3 hours when he's reviewed the scans. I can't imagine he would say that unless he was sure now. Possibly back for a scan in six months just to monitor things.

A huge cloud has lifted. I'm a very happy Paul.

Good news.

Two pints of Hunters 'Pheasant Plucker' seems to have reduced my neck pain to zero.
Should be available to pensioners on the NHS.

It's my first day of retirement and a very fine one it is too.

I got back about half one after an enjoyable 53 miles in the autumn sunshine, a bit chilly at first but it had warmed up nicely by the time I got home. There were several road closure's on the ride, Weston Lane was the first one, but I was able to slip through, Collingham Lane in Long Itchington was the next one, they had only just started work so I was able to slip through but it looked like I wouldn't get through on the way back, and there was one just outside Willoughby, but they hadn't started work so I was able to slip though both on the way out and on the way back..On my way back I followed my route out till I got to the cross roads on Stockton road where I turned right towards Birdingbury to avoid the road closure at Long Itchington, I then picked up a regular route home, that shortened the ride a little, but it was still an enjoyable morning out on the bike.

Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life.
Soon, work will be a distant memory and you'll wonder how on earth you used to manage to get up everyday to join the daily grind.
I'll be retired 5 years next month and I don't regret a day of it.

I totally disagree with that. In fact I will just have a sniff to double check.

Oh dear..... .I'm afraid you are correct

I'm so incontinent now I can punctuate every sentence with a fart.
