I went a bit quiet about the lump on my tongue because it seemed to provoke a series of personal attacks by an Age Net 'someone' who was trolling there at the time.
I am tentatively resuming the topic because so many asked me. Admission to day surgery for slicing-off, was possible for this Monday the 11th. I declined, because next week and the following week (The Murder Mystery!) both contain a celebration meal for my husband's 75th. So now I am due to go in on Monday 25th. The surgeon has decided I am not a good risk for general anaesthetic and I am more than happy to have local instead.
