Omega in good health, Ron isn't!
« on: 06 September 2020, 19:14:47 »
I've been absent from the forum for ages as I've been more in hospital than out of it, with  deteriorating kidney. I am now being prepared for dialysis - not a good prospect - and will effectively be house/hospital bound.
I started the Omega for the first time since last November (when I broke my hip bone) and I expected it to be reluctant to wake up, even if only to pressurise the fuel line, but amazingly it started immediately, was lumpy for about 5 seconds and ran normally!
Now I am readying it for MOT next week: all fluids sorted, cleaning headlight lenses and only the emissions light to put out.
Wish me luck?

Ron.

Sorry to hear about your health issues Ron, I guess dialysis must be like having a regular oil change?  ???  :-\  ;)  :)

Good news on the Omega though.  :y

I'm touched by all of your good wishes, folks. Thank you all.
It's not exactly like an oil cane, Sir Tig: three days a week for several hours on a machine, every week - forever! It severely limits my leisure activities and means that I can never again go on holiday.
Bu still, the alternative is even worse.....

Ron.

Apologies for the flippancy Ron.  :-[  It is obviously life changing and is a challenging time for you.  :(

Any chance of a transplant?  :-\
