Thumbs up At long last....!

My dad has finally got a date for his heartvalve replacement. He's going up north to a specialist hospital in Umeå on the 15th of June and they'll operate on the 17th. He'll be staying there for a week after the operation, to make sure that his new 16 valve top with compressor is working properly. So, should I be a bit "distant", you'll know the reason, just my nerves...

I dare say that the "skirts" will have to look out, now when he gets his "engine" refitted, mom will have some competition and I'll probably have difficulties to keep up with him too afterwards....

Glad to hear that mate.

I know what you mean when you say your dad with the skirts, mine can drive me up the walls some times with the sh*t he can say or do.
