In Health

We gave John and Maureen a ring before setting out for the Malaysian capital, to wish them an entirely irrelevant Chinese New Year and see how they were faring on the health front. The news was basically good. John can sleep through the night now, suggesting his op was basically a success and Maureen sounded entirely like her old self, indicating there hasn't been any kind of relapse. Given the fact that both Steve and Boon were looking well when we saw them last, and Mak's recent hospital stay was short-lived, it's good to know that so many of those on the reasons-to-worry-about-a-trip-to-the-doctor list are surviving if not thriving.

A measure of John's healthily positive view of things at the moment is his dishing out of some three thousand quid on new guns, not to mention his wistful comment regarding his new acquisitions: I wouldn't mind someone breaking in just so I can shoot them.
