Great to see that he has progressed enough for the clinic to allow 3 weeks til the next check-up Grin
Just amazing progress, considering that it really isn't all that long ago that he had the op.
Full praise to Swarb and Jill's fighting spirit Grin and the skill of the medical people of course.

Wonderful news,
Mic Smiley

Well done Swarb and Jill!!!

Well I dunno about that, but I was only able to watch it in 5 second bursts on the video with long waits in between. Looked like swarb could hold his breath for hours . Actually it looked really strange. especially as I have no sound on here at the mo........

It was a lovely evening though and well worth the surprise

All I got when I clicked the video link was a page of gobbledygook writing (could have been Russian Wink)
But, it's still great to know that he could blow out his candles, and the photos alone were well worth seeing Smiley

Worked fine for me Mix when I clicked on it about 40 minutes ago. It should download a file called swarbparty.wmv.
Have you tried it again?

BTW the file is just over 1MB in size so it takes a minute or two over a dial up line.

cheers

Swarby looking healthy and happy.  Couldn't ask for much more!   Cheesy

It's a Windows Media file so you need Windows Media Player to see it; my Mac version plays it fine.

It is indeed a wmv file but there are other players available if you want to avoid using that particular player.

I use VideoLan Client for example on my Mac and its fine. Plays most formats as well. (and its not a Windows app Wink)

But whatever you use isnt it great to see Swarb blow out his candles  Smiley

Update from Jill on Swarb's site.  Smiley

You'll have to visit to find out how he's getting on, but nice words from Jill and Swarb about Carey/Ces.
