    John Pru was intouch with him, maybe he has an up date.
    My son is a Consultant at the hospital and was going to visit him, but he moved to another hospital.
    Cheers

    I will leave him a message on facebook. I know a lot of members don't like facebook but if used properly it comes in handy and there is some good info on it try it you don't have to follow it I use it mainly for Skype many of us have friends across the world I message first on facebook to tell when I will Skype them? no harm in trying and have found many shipping sites on it?jp

    #3, Thank you John, The main reason I am not on face book is it appears to me a technophobe, that "the world and his wife" can read and see your family news & photographs because they are a friend of my family member? So I am still happy enough to use emails for private conversations etc. Letters now seem to be a thing of the past more's the pity.

    However if you are in cyber conversation with Rob please pass on my best wishes Marian

    I feel the same way about FB Marion. I do have an 'account' but with a different spelling of my name so I can keep up with the family photographs and stuff that we don't otherwise catch up with. I don't 'post' or respond to the continual pressure to 'add friends' that FB generates.

    Best wishes also to Rob.

    Hi Marian.
    I still write by snail mail, my sister in Wales doesn't have a computer and I have been writing to her since I went to sea in 1949, each of us write at least once a month if not sooner.
    Best wishes to Rob .
    Cheers Des

    I am in your camp Marian when it comes to FB. Too many people can gain access to anything put on there, not overl;y safe as afr as I am concerned.
