i saw your van briefly while i was sailing this arvo Paul. You didnt hang round long. You didn't miss much.
Hope to see u on the water soon mate!!

Here's to a speedy recovery - as fibresnap said - take your time and make sure you do the physio rehab.
Will see you around watching from the beach. Mind you I am getting closer to getting back on the water. It's been a long five months post op. but I think it should be worth it.
