if you knew Sushi like I...........

Barrie was at the doctors yesterday who had a look at his wound from the operation on the 3rd of November. The report was good. For over two weeks after leaving hospital Barrie was very sore and swollen he stayed inside and rested getting the anesthetic out of his body. Today some three weeks after the operation he was out on the town with son Max and me, we went to a Japanese restaurant for some non fattening Sushi at Sushi Hiro in the Uxbridge Road W5, not all that far from where Barrie was born.
He was in good form and quite excited about collecting his new automatic car which will be much better for his legs. He chose something comfortable which is the first automatic car he has owned. His walking has been very painful after the operation but he says it is getting better every day and thinks in a month or so things will be much improved. Anyway good to see he was out lunching again. Paul.

Back to Hospital

Barrie is popping back into hospital again today, he needs to have Prof Tony Mundy fix his hernias which occurred because of the pelvic damage to his stomach muscles.
He is expected to be there for just two nights if all goes well.
During the past weeks he has been trying without success to change his car for an automatic which will be much easier on his legs. The dealers were very hard to deal with even in the present recession ! So Barrie has engaged a broker who is a German car specialist who has come up with a suitable deal with in a short space of time.
The car has a private plate on it so the only hold up now is the DVLA who have to allocate a normal reg. no. which should be done in about a week if the postal worker do not go on permanent strike !
Here is Barrie in France last month looking relaxed with a neighbour Jean Ripes. What this space for news updates.
