Charles Shand Aota Valve Replacement

I had a call just now from Charles who wishes to be remembered to you all. He has now had some fairly extensive surgery to his heart area with access via a split Sternum and rib cage which is now wired up with Titanium and will take until end June'ish to heal. He is allowed to walk up to 1.1/2mls per day but no lifting, gardening etc. He anticipates gentle bike riding around July time. He is particularly grateful to Fuzz for keeping in touch with him. Well done Fuzz. Charles you are more then welcome to make a contribution to the Sou'Wester editorial whether it be current or "Hysterical" do not wait until you are back on the bike, strike now while what ever it is you have is hot! Make use of the quality time you now have, to do, what you want to do! OK so it's not writing about cycling!!
