Poor retro. Sorry to hear about your misfortune. As you have again discovered, you are not as robust as you were. Try to get into the habit of drinking at least two litres of water every 24 hours. Listen to your body more. 7 hours in A&E, not a pleasant prospect, but grateful to have the option. Of course you will be pub gossip for a while, but your shoulders are broad. I'm sure all present will be concerned about you. Rest well and heal. You could always send somebody else up the bar, I've done it for years. Though they still make me pay for it....
