Haven't Heard From Jay For A While??

[mcitinner1]

I wasn't here much for a couple of weeks because of the kidney stone thing, so I'm wondering if you all know what's happening with Jay? mawnansmiff...

 

[hawky454]

I’ve been wondering that as well. Hope he’s doing well and just bored of us.
Sorry to hear about your kidney stones by the way. I’m plagued with them annually. I’ve been getting them since I was 17 years old and I have the very rare kind that aren’t dictated by certain foods I eat so there is no preventing them through diet. I wouldn’t wish them on my worst enemy.

I heard from Jay a few days ago. He's still around-- maybe just taking a break.

 

[jvnshr]

Probably just reading some news from BBC or breaking some minerals

 

[mcitinner1]

Damn Hawky, I feel for you. @ Javan :laughat: :rofl:

 

[didache]

I think Jay is just taking a little break from us. Lord knows he needs it, considering what a bunch of rapscallions we are! :mrgreen:

rapscallions

Had to google it :roll:

 

[mcitinner1]

Rapscallion? Me? I don't think that's a strong enough word. I prefer curmudgeon...with a capricious attitude. :mrgreen:

I hope he’s ok also. I’ve had passed enough stones to gravel the driveway. Mine were also the same rare kind not caused by foods or anything. They stopped when I stopped developing my own pictures for photography,.. nasty chemicals.

Jay has had some health issues, but I am pretty sure he'll be back before long. Sorry to hear of the kidney stones, guys. Our little Highland Terrier came back yesterday from bladder stones op.

 

[mawnansmiff]

Hi folks....I'm still here but as John says, health issues have (and are) been plaguing me.
I've finally had to give up driving (anyone after a well looked after Skoda Fabia 1.4? :wink and have become something of a recluse. In fact I last drove in February last year and have not left the house since.
That said I've plenty of books to read so boredom doesn't come into my life. Currently reading Bernard Bailyn's excellent 'The Barbarous Years: The Peopling Of British North America 1600-1675'.
I wish you a speedy recovery Stan, I recall reading of Samuel Pepys lithotomy.....done the hard way with no anaesthetic!
Regards,
Jay.

 

[bluegrassbrian]

That sounds like an engaging read Jay.
Also reminds me I need to finish the Pepys diary. I got 3/4 through it and got busy with something else.
If I were you, I'd sell the Skoda and blow the proceeds on something useful like pipes and tobacco!

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Good to hear from you, Jay, but I hate to hear that you've been down with whatever it is. Skoda Fabia 1.4, that sounds painful. Is there a vaccine?

The reading sounds... stimulating. It's always interesting to see what other people enjoy reading.
Anyways, keep you chin up, and power through whatever the obstacles, and/or accept those things that wont budge.

I look forward to seeing more posts.

 

[hawky454]

It’s good to hear from you but I’m sorry to hear about your health issues, I hope you are still able to enjoy your pipe.

 

[warren]

Jay! Missed you. Treat yourself the best you can.

 

[jvnshr]

Jay, it is good to hear from you. I hope you are doing fine now.

 

[beefeater33]

Hope your getting well, Jay........... I miss your Cornwallian take on life, and those BBC news posts....... get well soon and speedy returns............ ::

 

[doctorbob]
