I'm very pleased to be able to tell you that I've just finished a long telephone conversation with Pete (Newt) who is back at home following a serious operation on his back on Friday.

Those of you who know Pete will be aware that he sustained a serious injury to his back many years ago and in recent times this injury has severely restricted what he was able to do. Pete had the operation on Friday and was allowed home on Sunday. He is recovering well but is still in a lot of pain and is restricted in what he can do while his back heals. He is unable to type at the moment so he has asked me to post this note to thank all his friends who sent him their good wishes before the operation and to let you know that he is doing well.

I am sure you will all wish to join me in wishing Pete a speedy recovery.

Cheers :wink:

Without a doubt. So glad to hear he's finally had the op and hope all the planes are braced for the onslaught when he's recovered. :D

Cheers, Alf
 
Get well soon Pete! My wife had an op on her back a few years back and she's a different woman! In fact I think they may have got the name tags mixed up as she also had red hair when she went in, but I'm not complaining :lol:

Yes Paul, certainly tell him I hope the op. is successful and he's back at the bench soon :)

Sorry, I seem to have missed some of the earlier threads about his case.
 
Best wishes to Pete. This does not sound like fun so I hope he is up and around very soon and back with the tools in hand.

Thanks for all the best wishes. First thing I did when I got home was to order a new shoulder plane to act as an incentive to get well.

Here it is:

Recovery going well but no planing yet.
