The Great Escape...

...meets Forest Gump. As some of you may know from other social media sites I was discharged from hospital on Tuesday evening ~

















I had intended to blog the French and Indian War game Jon and I played on the Wednesday previously, but I have seriously underestimated the shrinking of my horizons post surgery. My daily routine seems to revolve around walking, resting and eating, and that’s about it! I’ve got as far as uploading the pictures from the game, so perhaps next week, eh? In the meantime, if you are squeamish then look away now ~















Now, the question: who can link the pictures to the film titles explicit in the title and opening remark? No prizes sadly...

  1. Best of luck in your rehab! My wife had a knee replacement a couple of years ago, so I have a sense of what you're going through. We're thinking of you!

  4. You are looking very well old boy...

    That’s some scar... never mind ... a bit of filler and a fresh coat of paint,
    It will be as good as new...

    All the best. Aly
