It was broken at the knee
and the surgeon said it would take around six weeks I would have to stay in Hospital all that time to heal, I said No I would go home and treat me there,
So The District Nurse will visit every day.
So in five months I have had Two Broken legs the right and the left ones.
Apart from all that I am not too bad.
cheers
Brian
Probably not the first time you've been legless Kong. Possiby when falling out of May Sullivans Bar. Get well soon!!

Brian, Friday will be the 13th.
With all the luck you have had over the past few years nothing will go wrong for you, too late for that.
Go for a drive, enjoy the day, go to the beach and have an ice cream.
Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.

re: Capt Kong In the Wars
Today being Friday the 13 .Brian will probably be ex commudicado as Will be taking shelter in his neighbours Anderson Shelter. We wish You well Brian and hope you survive to see the sun shine tomorrow. However knowing your luck believe. Rain is forecast . Cheers JS
PS whatever you do , don’t go stroking any elephants. Myself I am refusing to sail today that is on the slight chance if anyone was to ask, which thankfully would be extremely unlikely . JS

re: Capt Kong In the Wars
That may well be the problem, at some time Brian has sailed on Friday 13th and upset some Ju, Ju man at the same time.
To make it worse had his hair cut just before sailing and no doubt cut his toe nails as
