Hi Jimmy, hope you're not too disappointed at being turned down for the trials? Not everyone is suitable, as you will know. Something else might turn up in the future.

I won't be going anywhere today either! It's a horrible wet & windy day outside! 💨☔️💨☔️💨☔️

Take care 🌺

Hi forsaking was producing to much mucus and might move the valves plus you had to walk about 100 yards without getting to much out of breath but was a very nice gentleman it was not at the hospital he phoned me but you might be lucky as you are going to hospital so good luck and hope you make it he also said they were overwhelmed by the response of so many so again good pluck

Hi forsaking it was because to.much mucus and could interfere with new valves also had be able to walk 100 yards without getting to much out of breath he said they were overwhelmed by the response to the trails he phoned me you could be lucky if you are going to hospital so good luck rosaking

Hi Jimmy, I'm sorry that you were turned down for the trial but better that than having something that may harm you. Something for a little way ahead when they have refined it maybe. Twinkle and I battled up the lane against the wind and both had tohave a good sit down when we got back. Keep peddling and looking out of the window and in your head you can win an olympic meddle.xx
