Second time round for me; last time 2013/14. Thought I'd dodged that bullet then.
Been dragging on for yonks...Covid-19 get's the blame - of course - but thing's moving along apace now.
Went to have tests done in December- so I thought - only to find myself with Consultant who apologised, as he couldn't find my test results. He was gobsmacked when I said I thought that was why I was there. He was very apologetic, as he ordered tests last August. He then put me straight on surgery waiting list pending this week's test results.
My fingies & eyes are crossed...
Now then...how DO I get in touch with that dirty bike you mentioned?
Hahahaha....

Thanks for your kind words, gstuart!
I'm a very glass almost completely full type of guy by nature. I really am very chilled about the whole thing. I don't see ANY point in even getting at all wound up, when there's nothing I can do (within reason) to influence the status quo. Close friends and family say I'm definitely wired-up wrong!
I'll keep you posted and thanks again for your kind words.
Mike.
PS: Despite the local anaestetig gel...I DID GO CROSSSEYED...HAHAHA

The girl doing the procedure was incredibly attractive - I can't resist a slim Lady - and I had to show significant "control" as she was handling my "person". The considerable stinging of the local anaethetic soon focused my mind away from her charms!!!
