I was just speaking to a friend who'd had a hip replacement and whose other hip was really painful now. She bit the bullet and went for a private appointment to discuss another hip replacement. She was very surprised to hear that there was now a three month waiting list for a private op. That says a lot about joint replacements up here. The NHS waiting list is now so long that so many people are wanting to go private.

I see them, thanks. I was expecting dancers on both sides, but now I will be more vigilant.

It’s just two dancers Charley, but two are better than none. We just need to look more carefully.

Do I need a trip to Specsavers but I haven't seen the flowers or whatever, added so we can see this at a glance.

Hurrah. 🥳. I have written to GN to see if they can insert a few dancing icons so we don’t have to spend ages searching for the thread. Thanks Jax
