Thread: Ten weeks - no shed - will I survive?

I had three months off last year and went overseas - nearly drove me crazy. Damn I missed just the poking about in the shed time - you know I don't pretend to be as productive as mr Wongo, I am more into planning and procrastinating then into the shed to do little.

Have to admit Pete, I don't envy the operation or the UK bit but do wish you well in your time away. Hope you get to see the things you plan and the wether is kind. Be nice to catch up with the kids too.

Even with the op you will still find yourself loitering in the "shed" - I use that term loosely cuz your "shed" is more house than some of our house


Catchya soon.

Goodluck with this weekend - hope the weather turns up nice for you and the bride and tribe too.

Hope all goes well with the hernia

Take care and enjoy the break

All rhe best on the weekend to the happy couple

Midge I'll look after your shed key if you like! Goodluck in your tangle with the knife.

Cheers

I had an inguinal hernia repaired many moons ago (how's this for apposite naming. The surgeon's name is Gillette!). The drive home was horrible. My wife managed to find every single pothole between Five Dock and North Ryde. I recommend a good driver for the return trip home.

Things you took for granted like laughing and coughing become problematic!

Worst of all in my case, it was the end of my trumpet playing career. And I mean career. I earned money from it and had serious aspirations.

No mate, your gone, done for, time enough maybe to make sure your will is in order and you make sure you dont give gumbo that domino

That can't be right surely?

Good luck with the wedding (and the ops of course). Have a rotten time in Europe. (Yes just kidding)

I'm sure you'll be taking your apple with you and won't be able to stay away from us.

Cheers mate

Funny that, till a week or two ago, I always thought Inguinal Hernia was some sort of Italian Pasta dish!

Good luck Peter,

With both the ops & England! With such a spacious shed I could always look after your tools for ya

Hope all goes well Midge, and that the UK trip compensates for the op.

I dont see much of it in Aust. but the ole boys who do whittling. Now theres something mate. Pocket knife and bit of wood man would even get it through customs its called "medication" for my hernia.

Best of luck, Pete. Hope you don't forget how to work wood.

Good luck Midge, keep posting
