Nearer a surgery date..

Well apparently I'm in the place on the list which should be done before end of August, BUT, they are running a month behind - which means I *should* be done before end of September.

So movement of a kind. Oh and the notice could be a day! Like, come in tomorrow. Yikes.

Bit spooked about it today to be honest - mainly the MRI again! The tests will all be done in the hospital the day before the op, so no trekking up and down to and back from Cardiff.

Morphine and fentanyl combo is ok, better than singley. Pain is not great, at a level where its hard to do more than the basics, plus the drugs make me somewhat apathetic. Added to that Cirrus had a mystery lameness recently so he's not been right to ride. I AM bringing them in tomorrow to trot him up on a hard surface and check, plus trim his feet. And dectomax him. And cuddle him.

Got a Seth Lakeman gig on Friday, and even better, my friend Helen (Helen from Evesham not Windsor) is coming as well! Very much looking forward to seeing her again.

Alfie is doing really well - he's huuuuuuge now - and very clever. I've mislaid the lead that connects my phone to the PC, actually, make that not sure where the lead is and can't be bothered to look as yet.... so no pictures as yet.

Ben took some fantastic pictures of Cirrus - looking very good for once, other than his sore face - but one is particularly good - here it is!
