Yes definately get well soon and keep up the dry wit.

Anyway I'm sharing a room with 3 gorgeous women in their nineties. What's not to like?

Get well soon, George!

I slipped one in before the ambulance carted me away 

In hospital your next VB will probably be virtuous broccoli. That will make you strong enough to carry a slab of VB again, George!

Get well soon.

I presume "VB" is Victoria Bitter, not Visual Basic or Victoria Beckham?    (you can tell I googled it!)

Dangerous stuff that VB.

Hope you soon start to improve.

Yeah, well I'm in a public hospital so hopefully won't have to pay for it, cos it looks like I'll be here a while.

George (Bealman) is currently in hospital with a fractured vertebra he blames on picking up a rack of VB. Said hospital wanted to send him home yesterday with some painkillers but it's obviously far worse than they think as the poor chap is almost passing out with the pain.
He's now in a 'proper' ward so, hopefully, will be having an X ray and a consultation with someone who knows what they're talking about*
I thought our NHS was bad at times but the same seems to apply down under

*Just my hope, rather than me knowing what's going on

There's a Youtube channel called 'Little Wicket Railway' which has a video about the Scalextric sale. And other ones about financial matters regarding our hobby. My impression is the chap's analysis is fairly accurate.

Worth a look for anyone interested in this sort of thing.

All good wishes.
