Sa - We made up Ne as a clown with bits and pieces from around the house. She and David (cowboy) went in the five city parade and Ne won 1st place. Most people thought she was a professional clown there to entertain the
kids. Ne was given a big trophy. |

Adventist Hospital for my knee operation (medial meniscectomy). Wise guy Anaesthetist, Joe Petoe and my nurse was Sally McGregor.
I was quite groggy afterward and didn't want to wake up; but Sally kept pinching my toe and forced me to get out the hospital after a cup of tea.
Big wad of dressing around my knee and I was lucky to get my pants back on. Less than 5 hours there. |

Su - Ne and I brought Bonnie into vet in Pukekohe and decided to put her down when told she had liver cancer. Middlemore. Parked across the tracks, got to the ward at 2PM and Gail hadn't returned from op theater.
I read until about 3PM when Domi and Brad stopped in on way back from Katikati. Gail showed up at 4PM. She was wide awake - turns out that she was out of theater at 1PM and it took three hours to get back to her room.
That should be the last of the operations. |
