Diary of an Edinburgher

He's back!

Gym ✖️

No time for the gym this morning. I had a long awaited appointment with the surgeon who did my knees (almost two years ago now.)

I don’t much like going to the hospital - it's full of sick looking people, most of them smoking near the 'No Smoking' sign, some of them attached to drips or in wheelchairs.

There seems to be a lot of staff, wandering around with a sheet of paper, or yakking and joking in corridors. They had something called 'Magic Radio' on for our delectation in the waiting room. Luckily I had my EarPods.

My surgeon is puzzled, as the X-rays look perfect. Blood tests were taken and a CT Scan to follow. He says that about 15% of knee replacements don’t work. But why? I kept asking him.

Back home to watch tennis all afternoon, though I did have a big snooze too. JR took Archie out for a big walk, but he was back in time to see Andy play lose his game - though at times he played really well.

Roll on Wimbledon.
