    Hello everyone,

    Thankyou for all for your lovely messages and support. I made it home at 2am after much wrangling , but I wasn't staying in that hospital another minute than was necessary! I am sure I wasn't the most popular patient ever , wasn't officially allowed home until this evening, but as they actually forgot to get me to sign any discharge papers I'm sure they Have been frantically hunting the hospital all day for me !!

    BUT despite the shambolic proceedings I am in love with my surgeon :smileyhea: (sorry Mr Pinot I still love you too !! ). He discovered alot more of a mess and muddle than was originally suspected that was sorted by partially removing 3 discs and releasing the nerve. The problem is nerve has been trapped for 7 years so having been released I am expecting a few problems but despite the pain from the op itself I feel like a whole new person. Still more work to be done but that's all oil and liveable with.

    This is a quick post for me , but wanted to drop by and say hello and goodbye. :wave: DD2 has become obsessed with Dyamo over the last few days and is insisting I watch every You Tube video he can find about him !

    I will be back tomorrow with classy paper knicker stories and my near miss boob job rather than back op !!

    Aargh just had a panic , has Gargrave gone ?? Ooh I hope not , I must drop in quickly just incase , I need to say goodbye. Hers was the first diary I ever read.

    Oh and DFW how weird was that with your DH being at Hyde Park as well. I wasn't in the posh bit though, in cattle class I'm afraid but still good anyway except for Dizee Rascal, far too much swearing for a family occasion in my opinion. Think he could have toned it down a tad. I have the pile of books for you on the landing, I will get around to PM ing you about them.

    PLMBL totally agree we were robbed. Watched a bit more of the mens gymnastics today .

    Anyway night all , I will be off now.

    Night x x
