(Or RJW as some of you may know him)

Robert is in the hospital, recovering after having had a pacemaker installed. He's doing fine by his own account, and actually sounds well, to read his messages. (For example, he's already figured out that his circumstances get him out of chores biggrin biggrin biggrin )

Kidding aside, it's times like these when humanity really touches us. Irrespective of all else, we are all real people, and perhaps sadly subject to the frailties of the human condition.

There are great people here, and in my own experience RJW is one of the nicest guys around. I was shocked to learn of his tribulations, and greatly relieved to finally hear he's gotten through it OK and is expected to be back in full form in a few weeks.

Let's all say a word or spend a quiet moment for Robert and his family. I'm sure they could use the support smile

Robert - all the best to you, buddy. And remember: No cleaning! biggrin

Oh dear! A Blighty for Robert! No more active duty!
I wish you well and hope you will get back to fighting form soon. All the best.

I'm glad to hear you're on the mend, Robert. Scary stuff.

You have a busy Winter ahead of you. Now you can spend all that extra time freed up by the "no chore lifestyle" making aerodromes and fixing all the mods that WOFF 2020 is sure to break. wave

I agree, a gem of a man. Take care Robert and get well soon, but do be sure to milk that recovery time for all it's worth!

And thanks KK for letting us know.

more of the best wished for you, Robert!

Off hand, while they were at it, did you get the docs to go and also just add in a super power source like Tony Stark has?
