I've been told again....

[FlashDrive (Poppy)]

.... I have been told by the Medico's to be very careful ... on new medicine and I'm not allowed to do anything that will cause issues .... still getting AF ( uncontrolled heartbeat ) ... it does settle after some time , but have to rest...no lifting....no perving ( upset the heart rate ) or strenuous activity... keep life simple.

If I don't, I can only blame myself and give grief to my better half...

I will keep the 80mm f/15 .... the others can go if anyone wants a nice Scope from my listings.

I'll do my best to stay above ground ....

Col.....

Take care of yourself Col - and remember that having a hobby like this that brings your enjoyment, relaxation and peace is also good for your health. (Even though it may not always seem that way - courtesy of the weather! )

Paul

[jenchris (Jennifer)]

Take it easy Col.
Look after your stress and enjoy the peace.

[croweater (Richard)]

+1 to both Paul and Jennifers' words. Hope things turn out well for you Col. Cheers, Richard

[MortonH]

Take care Col.

[FlashDrive (Poppy)]

Thanks Paul, Jennifer, Morton and Richard ..... it is what it is, but I must do what I'm told.
I'd like to think that my time will be much later...much much later in fact.
I have to have regular checkups at different intervals and wear a portable ' ECG ' for a period of time.

Oh I see .... let's not go there ....you know the Surgeon ' comically ' said to me ...I'll give you 15years warranty for your quadruple bypass .... maybe I should go back for a ' claim ' before it's too late ....

Bugger Col, not good news, I hope the Stars will give you peace,

Leon

[Regulus (Trevor)]

Sad news Col, and I wish you all the best, and if possible, a rebound to good health.
Of course, if you do get that rebound, you're going to miss those scopes :-)

Not good Col, take it easy mate and no going to the beach this Summer.

[acropolite (Phil)]

Hope you see an improvement Col, hopefully posting on IIS won't get the heartrate up.

[Zuts]

I'm glad you kept the Genesis, that is definitely a lifetime scope.

I hope everything works out. I had a heart attack and bypass when I was 50. I kept some of my Astro gear and am now slowly getting back into it.

Cheers

Yes ...thanks Paul, will only be better I hope ...don't want to go down hill.
Eat the right food ... stay away if possible from stressful situations...turn the TV off when the Politicians come on , but the years are moving on ...it is what it is.

I withdrew the TV Genesis as no one was showing any interest ( plenty of lookers ) I know it was only up for about 24hrs, but a Scope like this does not come up very often.... in fact I have listed it 2 times before....guess it's not the Scope people desire.
I may pass it on to my Son-In-Law in the future.

Col...

[raymo]

Hang in there, I have a long time friend who has had 3 major heart
attacks, a triple bypass 25 yrs ago, another triple 5 yrs ago, and he is still going strong. If he can do it, you can.

[Constant (David)]

Col, you should be mindful of casting aside those things that deliver enjoyment and satisfaction. Maybe a neat fast little APO triplet from the proceeds of your sale? Cheers

[StuTodd]

All the best in getting better Col!

A nice pair of bins and a trapezium to ease the viewing would be nice and cruisy..enjoy those stars!

Thank you all for your support and kind words.
