Not a Hippy-but I'm happy

[Mike D]

I used my enormous 6'3" son for the same Purpose,Ruby-I knew he'd be useful one day!
I used to take him to the very same pool 20 years ago and hold him up-the roles were reversed last night-it felt a bit odd!

[Anna]

I know where Yearsley baths is Mike but ive never been. It may end up being my local though as my gym pool only has those awful ladder type things to get in and out. I think that could be a bit difficult and an extra worry!! .... thats even if I ever get fixed. Sigh.

[rubyred]

You will, Anna. One way or another. Have faith in your new surgeon.

[hernanu]

You'll get there Anna... I want you fixed when my daughter does a university term in London, I expect to visit and maybe do a gathering of hippies.

[Anna]

Count me in Hern! (On the codition that there will be beer) 

[Dannywayoflife]

Hippy gathering in London!? I'm in! It's only 45 mins for me!

[rubyred]

Spare some room for a chubby ginger!

[Spanielsal]

Hey, gathering in London... Hell yes.

[Jason0411]

2.5 hours for me but with prior warning.

[Mike D]

This hippy gathering could happen!
Seeing as its on my thread, I'll get the ball rolling-who would definately go?
I'd love the chance to see if my mental picture of everyone fits!
I'd definately be up for a meet, London would be ok for me-2 hrs on a train. Sometime in November or very early December is good with me but even January is ok.
Put your name down here!

[Anna]

We have to wait until Herns daughter goes to uni Mike! I would defo be up for it as long as it doesntclash with any operation I may recieve 

[rubyred]

If i'm invited, stick my name down

It might be hard to sort a date when everyone could make it together but you never know.
Any other hippys/ THR's,  pre or post op, just add your name and we may be able to make it happen.

[Pat Walter]

I am jealous.  I want to come, too!  But, it's a long way across the pond.  If you do get together, be sure to take some photos or video for the website.  The UK Surface Hippies   

Have fun.  I hope it happens.

If you do get a date and place set, I will post it on the main website and www.hipresurfacingnew.com and maybe  www.hipsforyou.com  so everyone can see it.  Not everyone reads thru all the threads here.  There might be some wanna bees that will want to meet you all and ask questions, never know.

Pat

[Dannywayoflife]

Pat you are always welcome this side of the pond!
If/when we get a meet organised it would be great if you could put it on your sites! As you say some potential patients might want to meet some post op hippies

We have to wait until Herns daughter goes to uni Mike! I would defo be up for it as long as it doesntclash with any operation I may recieve 

So come on hern when will your good daughter be coming to London so we can arrange this thing! 

 

She is now in the middle of her second year, she plans on doing it in her third. I threatened to move in with her, will go at least once to visit her.  No need to wait for me to gather and enjoy, I'll gladly join a second, third, umpteenth hippie gathering.

Hern
Out of teacherly interest, what is your daughter studying and which uni?
Toby

[hernanu]

She's studying Molecular Biology at Amherst College, with a laser like goal of attending medical school, which anyone not desiring injury will avoid impeding, given her ambitious nature.

She's also dancing in their dance performances and plans on being the first dermatologist and supermodel. At least that's what she told me when she was seven and as far as I know, has not changed her mind.
