Get well soon and we can have a bit of a go somewhere! 348 Blu Sera.

Peter, hope all goes well and that you are out of isolation in record time again!

Peter, hope all goes well and that you are out of isolation in record time again!

that would be nice Mark, but somehow I think not, the treatment is very different this time, no sneaking off to LM this year and maybe not next year either...

Keep your pecker up old chap and if you need an airborne delivery to sustain you, then tip us the wink.  In the meantime, if you haven't seen them, worth a watch,

Mark, no worries, really quite chipper and not down in the mouth at all, at all.  The reason I won't be going through quickly is that the first ten days is purely 'conditioning', amazing how a simple word can describe quite a complex procedure, a bit like 'softening up'.  Conditioning means completely wiping out my immune system ready to receive the donor cells, in between a very large dollop of chemo to have ago at any remaining cancer cells.

No doubt members of the south coast chapter will be keeping you a breast of the state of play, really looking forward to the green diarrhea etc. ;D ;D ;D ;D

funny cards and text messages will be well received. ;)

Bloody hell, and there's Catherine Zeta Jones in the news, worrying about smelling like a brewery for days after conditioning her hair in beer and honey.  You'll own a brewery of your own after your little conditioning jaunt then..... ;)  Oh and while you're lying there on your back observing flies on the ceiling, draw upon the following RAF theorems:

Ceilings Landing On, Flies Observations On

How do flies land on the ceiling? Pilot Officer Prune and Flying Officer Prang, whilst resting in the dispersal hut between Ops, undertook an Observational  Research Project to establish quite how it was achieved. They were unable to agree and came to two different conclusions set out below, who if either was correct?

Theory 1. By Pilot Officer Prune

Pilot Officer Prune was of the opinion that the Fly with the throttle set at cruise flew along at the correct height below the ceiling, lowered its under cart,  and performed a half loop landing off the top.  Pilot Officer Spin disagreed as unless fitted with an altimeter working inversely from the ceiling down instead of from the ground up, the fly would be unlikely to be able to judge the correct radius to avoid nose diving into the ceiling a quarter of the way through the loop.  Flying Officer Prang also disagreed as, once sufficient airspeed to effect a a good three pointer had been lost the fly would enter an upside down stall, go into an inverted nose dive and have to go around again.  As a consequence, most flies ,especially the inexperienced, in order to achieve a safe landing would be required to fly a series of vertical circuits of gradually decreasing radius until a successful contact with the ceiling was achieved.  Pilot Officer Noseover also disagreed as landing was in essence a controlled stall onto the ground and it was impossible to stall in an upwards direction. He also added that any landing off the top of a loop would be in the opposite direction to its line of flight adding a significant work load to the already difficult landing procedure. 

Theory 2. By Flying Officer Prang

Flying Officer Prang was of the opinion that the fly flew along just below the ceiling, executed a half roll and lowered its under cart as it landed using its brakes (sticky feet) to end the landing run and prevent an inverted stall.  Pilot Officer Prune disagreed as the strain on the under cart would be tremendous and in most cases would shear it off, causing an inverted crash landing.  Wing Commander Flap also disagreed as, after one or two prangs, the fly would have no under cart left and would have to be relegated to the fly dump.

Oh my god Peter, I wish you all my best.

Good luck & all the best Peter, your early morning croissant run will be missed!

[Andy Zarse]

Peter if you're going to suffer from it, green or otherwise, please note it's spelt DIARRHOEA! There will be a spelling test upon your release!  ;) Seriously mate, good luck from all at Team Zarse.



Mark, Prune; hilarious!!

sorry Andy, promise to do better next time, when the DIARRHOEA starts, I'll ask how it likes to be spelt ;D ;D

I have a stag do in the planning stages,

Here's an idea. Why not have a themed stag do?


The Theme?      Home and Away.


The "Home leg"    Somewhere close to hand. Wokingham for example, for a monumental piss up.

The "Away leg"    Sebring. That way you get to go to Sebring, the Old Man gets to go to Sebring, because what sort of Father doesn't go to his son's stag do? It will send out a clear message to the intended, this is how it starts and this is the way it stays. The Turn 10 guys will ensure that you have a great time and a stag do to remember, everybodies happy. Just do it Brad, how cool would that be 8)

All the best from Termite Towers, Peter.  Bon courage, like what they say 'ere. :)
