[Stevie] Isn't that fencing the recurring theme of your DIY posts on this website? I remember it from years ago. Perhaps it's time it went - is not even as if you have to keep the Steveling confined any more.

Nope. I value my privacy, such as it is.

Didn't get to fix the fence because of rain and bleeping work.

[Stevie] A noble task! Those swearwords won't censor themselves.

No, that's the noise my computer makes when the remote connection is timing out.

[Stevie] Mark your boundary with a row of nails.  It is said that a tack is the best form of the fence.

Argh! No court in the world would convict me, Boolbar.

Hooray! Them and their clever machines have had a closer look and I have no cancer whatever outside the prostate and so don't need chemo. A very good day. A very good day indeed.

Very good news Rosie.

I bet you feel about twenty years younger, Rosie. Marvellous, marvellous, old chap.

(Stevie,Dujon) Cheers. Thanks. The prostate itself is still cancerous but it's completely under control and the hormone therapy is working, i.e. the wee-wees are faster, less urgent and there's less getting up in the night. Pints of beer are less likely to cause "spillage". This is important, obviously. This treatment is going to have to last some time but has no side-effects apart from the obvious one of loss of libido which is not the worst thing in the world for someone of my age (74) but a slight loss nevertheless. I was told, quite seriously, that every man of 90 has prostate cancer (but dies of something else). Can I hang on to it for 16 years? Some people with more threatening cancer give it a name. Any suggestions? Trump? Ibrahimovic?

Why not call yours a "Corbyn"? After all, although it has dangerous principles it's pacific, looks like it's quite happy in its own allotment, was around for ages before coming to your notice, and you'd be better if once it's gone.
Have a beer from me, for medical reasons.

(Bismarck) It doesn't make much sense to name a malignant growth after something benign, does it?
