I hope that you are not in too much pain - good luck with the surgery.

No rush about meeting up,but I know that you are interested in racing history and I have a number of interesting pieces of memorabilia that I think that you would like to see that I can bring with me.

Juct give me a call when you would like to meet up .

Once again all the best with the surgery.
