Well I'm of to hospital tomorrow for an operation on my hand so have been busy doing as much as I can while I have the chance as I won't be able to use my hand for some time.

Had to see my nurse the other week to arrange to get my injections done for me until I can do them for myself again.

You don't realize how much you depend on your hand until you can't use it.

Will be off work for about 3 or 4 weeks but at least I have the grass court tennis season to keep me occupied!

Probably won't be on here much as won't be able to use the mouse.

Take care everyone and see you in a few weeks or so.
 
Good luck. Hope all goes well.
 
Take care Phil. I hope it all goes well for you.
 
Phil good luck hope it goes well x
 
Hi Phil, good luck with your op tomorrow. Here's wishing you a smooth recovery x
 
I hope it goes well. Just a suggestion if you get withdrawal symptoms not coming on, use the mouse in the opposite hand. We are predominantly right handers here and the mouse is on the left. My big boy is a lefty and wham we first got the computer he ha a problem using it on the right Now we have just got used to it being there
 
Good luck Phil, I hope everything goes smoothly for you 🙂 I tend to use keyboard shortcuts most of the time - no need for a mouse! 🙂
 
Take care. Hope all goes well and that you are soon able to use your hand again.
 
Good luck, hope all goes well today.
