Had a scare last Tuesday with pain in my chest and arm & had to go to hospital. Lots of tests - both static & active, & nothing showed up. So went to have an angiogram today. Seem to have a mildish problem, so it's pills, walks and diet for me. Anyway after the angiogram, my wife had to collect me & was handed my bag as "he mustn't lift anything" saith the nurse "as the incision might reopen". I said I'd spend the night on the computer, but wife and nurse tut-tutted and I was told to relax and watch tv. When we got home, it turned out it was wall to wall Michael Jackson. I watched desultorily until Brooke Shields sacchar-cringingly averred "Michael was one of a kind!" Silently thinking he certainly was - I'd never heard of any other dyed white paedophiles, I switched off & yelled at my son to deliver me one of his dvds to lighten my spirits. He put "Borat" in the slot and retreated. And the reason I'm back on the computer and not watching television? I laughed so loud at one part of "Borat" I slapped my hand on the table in front of me, and yes, of course, it was the one with the incision and the very one I was told to mind carefully for 24 hours "Don't even wash it!!". So using the pc is easier and safer than tv.... Anyway, a Bristol 406 - these cars were built originally by the Bristol aeroplane company who made the famous Bristol Fighter of WW1. That's its owner beside it - seems a bit of a Bristol Fighter himself... http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/bristol406.jpg.html Douglas _________ Douglas Barry Bray, Co.
