Oh, thanks, Leo. I have only caught up on my important internet reading this morning, the AE forums.

Time for a jaunt over to CNN or some such.

Latest news is that Col G. has been captured.


No independent verification yet... many similar things happened in past that turned out to be false... let's wait and see...

Morning Guys, well I am back from my hospital check-up.

I am deeply humbled by the posts of support from you chaps, and thank you all very much (even T, my grammar teacher). My Oncologist is very happy with my progress, the latest tests show that the tumor is still dormant, and that it is not producing any more nasties at all. He is so confident about my condition, that he does not want to see me till February next year.

But the Chemo injections, and other dugs have to continue at the high dose that I am taking them, so the down side is the side-effects will continue. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, as the side-effects are no-where near as bad as what the tumor was doing before I started treatment.

I did admit to my Specialist, that the only side-effect that really annoys me is the one that effects my eye-sight. The problem is that some days for up to six hours, I get blurred vision, and the lose the ability to focus my eyes. This I told him, means that I cannot do my E-mail operational wargame turns (AE-PBEM).

But the prognosis looks good, and I am going to be around for a few more years (PBEM-turns). So I am a lucky boy (touch wood), as I have dodged the bullet this time. I have a second go at life, so I'm going to make the most of it.

Thanks again Guys, and have a nice day, cheers Des.

Edit: Now I am going to have a nap, as I am shagged, see you later.

Great news, Des!

Well, it appears the end has happened for my company. It was a nice run. Maybe it is time for a good change for me.

Our bank put massive restrictions on us about four months ago. We couldn't get alternative investment in order to get product in. The end result of that is pretty obvious. It's been coming on for a while.

I have one really good lead that I hope is still open. I will be touching base with that lead tomorrow.

There will be one later today according to my boss, who accidentally let it slip. I've seen it coming for a while and have been doing some work on the matter. But....in this economy, only the Good Lord can guarantee a job.
