Hi, Good to know he's fine. I'm not sure that anyone, is ever going to stop some people from doing the things they love to do ... it might seem odd and weird for us, but for them, there isn't much else that is as exciting. But, in the end, this is the chance for him to wind down some of his work, and start having a little fun smelling the roses, or enjoying his time with Toyah ... though she still seems to be overly active and on her own trip even when RF is going somewhere else ... maybe this is the good time for them both to travel together and stop doing the crazy and nuts amount of work they are doing on their own. But, will RF listen? I get the feeling that Toyah is trying hard to maximize her work so if something happens to RF she is in better shape, than otherwise, but emotionally, I think she will be done at that point. She's not getting younger, even if she makes it look like she can still dance a teenager off the stage! And she has the looks and knows how to use them! The best for them ... but slow down, as it doesn't get easier with each passing day. BTW, the reason for shaving his bollocks is not ... it is that the stents and procedures go from underneath there on one of the larger blood vessels ... you can't insert a stent through your arm! But making a fuss about that whole thing is ... a bit weird, but how it was told, and the reason that Toyah gave, is ridiculous! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

Yes, all the best to Mr Wilcox, although the detail of not being able to have a decent shag for a month was, perhaps, best left between themselves? ------------- Enhance your life. Get down to www.lazland.org Now also broadcasting on www.progzilla.com Every Saturday, 4.00 p.m. UK time! |

Glad he's doing better and resting.....Needs to relax on the blue pills, a 100 years of porking I'm sure he can give it a break for a couple months to recoup.. -------------

Bob still has his sense of humor! "Well here's the interesting bit," says Fripp, determined to remain positive. "I was in A&E not quite knowing what was going on other than I knew they were going to do something, and an orderly came along and shaved my balls!" ------------- I am not a Robot, I'm a FREE MAN!! |

All the best from me as well. This reads like what happened to two from my family some six years ago in the space of two months or so. Both were around 80 at the time, made a full recovery and have no issues connected to this now. I hope it will play out like this also for Bob. |

Well one thing Im sure of... he's disciplined enough to do the right things to make a full recovery. Hope for the best for one of the best. ------------- Sjå, my first album in 25+ years is out now: https://jeffjahn.bandcamp.com/album/sj I am told its quite original |
