Tuesday 12th Feb.

Appointment with Dr Sanjay Sharma, a genial giant who agrees to slice me open on Friday 22nd Feb.

Apparently, I have simply drawn the genetic short straw and most likely the cholesterol has been building up for 30 years. Only my fitness has prevented this problem arising 20 years earlier.

However, I have dodged a bullet by having a check-up before the trip and as my heart itself is in perfect nick the outcome of the op should be very good.

Stay at Lyn and Bert’s for the rest of the week to see Lyn fly off to South America on Sat 16th Feb.
