It's that date again. It comes round so quickly.

Eleven years ago on the 16th December 2013 I was on the operating tale having a single heart by pass. and also having my failing Aortic valve removed and a natural one fitted as a replacement.

So here I am eleven years later still active, fit amd eternally grateful for the skills of yhe surgeon and his team. Thank you to the whole NHS system which undoubtedly saved my life by their prompt action and in house skills. Eleven more years that I could play with my motorbikes, and I look forward to the next eleven years.
