Checking in for surgery

Am now installed in the very plush Golden Jubilee hotel in Glasgow courtesy of the NHS - it was originally built for the Arabs- and will sign in tomorrow morning for second knee replacement.

M could have stayed too but he said he had to go home to feed the cat (!)
Met a woman in the lift who said she was here for “burst pipes”. Not sure if she meant some of her internal organs or a domestic problem. This is Glasgow. Anything could happen.
