Most of you will probably know Arthur from the old original forum.
Top company man who always wanted what most of us want/need!!
Well, .... Arthur is going in for bypass surgery tomorrow, Wed 26th of Feb.
I'm sure I speak on behalf of everyone here when I wish him all the best and may he have a speedy recovery.
Good luck Arthur............ (the original 'pink tutu man')

Re: Arthur in for the zipper
Arthur's iPad and laptop have already been confiscated by his wife and daughter. He had a look at all your messages though before his toys were taken and said he was quite appreciative. His op is scheduled for Wednesday, mid-afternoon and will take about 5 hours.

Re: Arthur in for the zipper
If anyone is still in contact with him, wish him all the best form both of us as well. Bob (BobnBev) goes in for the zipper job soon as well I believe, so much for the keeping healthy and watching your weight etc, young Bob is the picture of all those things, yet he is up for a zipper job so it’s really the draw of the cards I think

Re: Arthur in for the zipper
BobnBev are calling in for a cuppa on Sunday before the zipper club meeting. Must be the in thing lately. My BIL has had 3 by passes and 2 stents and is still plodding along after 30 odd yrs.
I bet Arthur had his tutu all washed and starched ready for his discharge occasion.

Re: Arthur in for the zipper
I just had a message from Arthur to say he is doing better now and is back on the ward.
