Well played Sir, you have had quite a few of these recently if I recall correctly


Thank you sir. Yes. It's because of the way I play the game. I pluck a start word out of the air, and my second attempt is often based on information gained from the first attempt. I know that others don't play it this way. This strategy can get me into a pickle though. I do sometimes apply tactics, but not normally until later in the game.

827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq		That's exactly the strategy that Handsome Jeff uses. I use the carefully selected three opening option routine, they contain all five vowels, the letter "Y" and fifteen different letters in total. On particular useful responses I dispense with the remaining options and "go for it" as I did this morning. I prefer the more structed approach, whether it is better or worse remains to be seen, but I feel that it is better for me.

I hate these. Few factfinders found and the fourth was a long time coming, the fifth was quicker for obvious reasons.

827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq		Today I go to Wigan Hospital for a repeat of the procedure of February 16th. That is I get rebooted. It worked last time but the condition returned because the cause of it had not been tackled. Now it has been and assuming it works again, I should be in the clear. Well at least as far as this malady goes, the trouble with medical folk is that when they go a-proddin' and a-pokin' they find all sorts of nonsense. Opinions will vary on what should be messed with and what should be left alone. Let's hope I got lucky.

I also hope for as good a day as plausible for you, my old friend. I've been at the club a few times recently and it's still a sanctuary. And good grief, Mack's in fine condition now.

It's Joe's birthday, so I'll be toasting him later. I wish I could approach the world as positively as he does.

Thank you, and your return is excellent news. Welcome back.

Mack has dropped about forty five kilos from his pomp. Then he didn't look strong but was, now he looks strong but isn't. He's happy though which is surely the main thing.

It is indeed, he would have been fifty four. I saw a cartoon the other day which made me think of him immediately. He was a very memorable chap.

827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq		So I have a shaved patch on my chest, and scorch marks on my left pec and back, but feel all the better for it.

My suggestion that as the hospital is in Wigan, they should substitute the post procedure sandwich with a meat pie was not greeted with the enthusiasm it deserved, is my only complaint. Everything else was pretty much tip-top.
