If you see Lady Jean's comment, what John would sing now is "I want a proper cup of coffee made in a proper coffee pot."

The surgery was successful - here we are 19 years later and John is celebrating his Eightieth birthday singing and playing concertina at an Old Songs concert in Voorheesville New York (near Albany). You can listen on the Old Songs Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMMCX_AzG18 and give a present (a tip) at http://johnroberts.oldsongs.org or add to the Tip Jar at http://artists.oldsongs.org

At Last after many years as being friends.....John and I really have something in common...Successful Open Heart Surgery ...
I have been through the process in the last 7 days.....and but for Bone & Body healing...I am OK..

I look forward to several more years of spending time and singing with my good friend...ie when I am allowed to drive again...Best to all....

the Mudelf has moved my comment so you haven't a clue what I meant about Lady Jean. See https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=82503 (Lady Jean now has the last word as my comment was removed and made into the start of a new thread)
    Yeah, I followed the advice of a Mudcatter who thought it was not good to revive a 2005 surgery thread. I agree. Please think twice before refreshing old threads that might cause a tizzy.
