So the snow in London is Micca's fault. That's what he gets for claiming those boots were too much for London in the winter.

He saw the docs today and has been given the OK for wine in moderation! He is a much relieved and relatively happy bunny. Although he's peeved that he left his best snow boots in Maine.

Yes but at some point life is not worth living. If Rioja is the Quality of Life breaking point, then he is right to worry. I suspect it is not but only Micca knows.

He should be more worried about killing himself, by ignoring doctor's orders!

He is somewhat worried about being denied an occasional glass of Rioja.

scored, BUTTERS. Not wore, scored.

Habasher one might wear, but never Hash. Attracts the wrong sort.

Anyway spoke to the Micca himself and he seems quit well, having conversations with himself concerning health vs enjoying life. Moderation didn't come up but may be looming on his horizon.

Micca, THIS side of the water, rubbers are used for erasing pencil marks. But take care anyway.

sorry he's still delayed, and I hope the doc's powders and salve can cure the warts and lumbago, etc.

thanks Liz for the update.

Perhaps we should modify the circle to include improving self-discipline.

which of course WE'RE all experts at.

I keep getting this picture in my head of someone painstakingly putting the pieces of a busted garden gnome back together with a brush and a pot of glue... Say, I'll send a pot of glue to help the process along.. :o))

Latest news Thursday 11.30am, he's waiting on results of another scan and may be home tomorrow.

There are lots of things he needs to do for his health.... none of which he'll like....

There are lots of things we could do for his own good. He won't like those either.

I was in Yorkshire at the time lol but he was using his mobile in the shower room. Even funnier he hadn't a clue who was sending the messages as he hadn't got my number logged into his contacts. Didn't stop him chatting to a strange woman in the shower! He rang this evening and sounds much chirpier than last week. Even commented about his room that he's stayed in worse hotels!!
