        Did you choose that day deliberately?

        Seriously, sorry to hear that. I hope she gets better soon.

        I might have missed a post - what is wrong with her?

          sorry to hear that but it could be worse.

          I'm supposedly on holiday (family) at last two weeks of August and again at the end of September (replacement trip to Italy for the one I didn't do in Mid June).

          Mrs eek's mum however has an operation booked for September 20th which will take 6 weeks to recover from. So the Italy trip has to be brought forward as we can't claim on the insurance as while we didn't know about the operation she did.

          I can't of cause take 3 weeks in a row off so my summer holiday is now 1 week in Italy and 3 or so days in Cornwall when I catch up with everyone else..

          To say that I'm unimpressed would be a slight understatement. Only thing going in my favour is the large amount of additional money I will now have saved up...
          merely at clientco for the entertainment

                She's got heart problems - she needs a valve replacement (she was very ill over Christmas with heart failure). They won't do open heart surgery as she's very frail, so there's a procedure where they go through the artery. They're not 100% sure she's suitable - apparently she has tortuous (twisty) arteries. She had some stents put in in preparation, and apparently that was more complicated than it should be (although successful). So she's got to go in for tests - they had told be it would be a couple of days, but they've booked her in for the week, so don't know if they're planning to do the operation then too. I'll try and get more info. Actually being in a hotel in London would be helpful, but the point of spending stupid money on it was to have a romantic couple of days away from it all, so I think I'll cancel, and we'll postpone romance for another decade or two. Might keep the restaurant booking and stay somewhere cheaper for just one night. Will see what Mr ms says.
