      Mark Cordone,

      I’ll see what I can do, but I’m rather busy with hospital visits this week.

      All the best,

      Bob

      Mark Cordone,

      Today’s visit was a pre-colonoscopy assessment and preparation session. The colonoscopy will take place on Friday, but I have to spend the second half of Thursday purging my system for it.

      All the best,

      Bob

    Bob -
    Like you, I like to maintain a written 'stocktake' of my army establishments. But the visual appearance does have a certain 'drool factor'... No pressure, though, eh?
    Cheers,
    Ion

    Ships smaller than battleships aren't of interest/relevance?

    Bob, I would like to add my wish to see these forces in pictures, when you're up to making the trek to the top of the house of course.
    Best wishes for the Hospital visits.

      Maudlin Jack Tar,

      As I stated in my reply to Archduke Piccolo, I’ll see what I can do …

      All the best,

      Bob

      PS. I spent this morning at the hospital having a pre-scan preparation session. Ninety minutes to get there by public transport, twenty minutes at the hospital, and forty-five minutes to get home by car.

    That's a useful list there Bob and something I really should do for several periods, to help me maintain focus.

    Good luck with the colonoscopy. I had one done a few years ago as a regular check up when I was around 55 IIRC. Quite weird watching everything on the screen with no sensation at all. At least there were no adverts:)!

      Steve J.,

      I try to keep a list of the figures in my collections on an Excel spreadsheet. My wife thinks that it’s a bit anally retentive, but I think that it’s being organised.

      I had a colonoscopy back in 2020, and it discovered the cancerous polyp in my colon. The surgeon operating it insisted on showing me what the camera could see on a widescreen monitor … a gesture that I must admit that I didn’t appreciate at the time! From my point of view, a few adverts might have made it better viewing!

      All the best,

      Bob
