have just heard from Mrs Owd and Owd is probably fairly tired, so he won't likely be on tonight.
He had the camera procedure this morning and they have found an infection deep in his throat that has been causing the discomfiture, treatable with antibiotics....so that is pretty good news.
Fingers crossed that it all works and quickly so they can get him back up re salts in his body, hydration food and then home.
I passed on several of your good wishes earlier and Owd and Mrs Owd are most appreciative of all the support ABers are showing them at this time......
