Legend is a word that is bandied about freely but he is a genuine legend. It's good to hear that the op went well.

Approached by a guy yesterday in the pub (spotted me in my Spurs top) who claimed to be a friend of Gary and said he (Mabs) had a big gash on his leg and was lucky not to lose it. I see he had this problem a couple of years ago and looks like it's part of his ongoing fight against diabetes. The guy was visiting him this week so I told him to give him our best from all Spurs fans.

When surgeons do heart by pass work they strip out a section of vein from a patients leg to use in the chest area.
