Sorry, All. :-[

I didn't see an e'mail that Leon sent yesterday, around 6 PM, until 12 hours later !!
Apparently the poor chap has just discovered he's got a detached retina, and has got emergency surgery scheduled for this morning. 

At present that's literally all I know. (Apart from what I looked up on the NHS site about detached retinas....which didn't sound like much fun !!)

Get well soon Boss !!

All the best - Phil

I'll do this later

All the best to Leon. Hope all goes well and recovery is swift.

All the best. A few zaps with a laser will have you right.

I'm very sorry to hear that and hope that the surgery goes successfully.

My brother suffered one quite a few years back and it was sorted at Moorfields; he made a full recovery, I'm sure yours will be just another routine procedure (although it doesn't seem like that at the time) and you'll be back to top condition in a couple of weeks.

May all go well, Leon. As Kitty says a few laser zaps usually does it. (Usually a gas bubble is placed in the eye to hold every thing in place while things heal. During that time you have to hold your head in a fixed position - so a fantastic opportunity to get a lot of rest).
