I havent been around for some days and probably wont be for a week or so. Got whipped into hospital last week and came out with a pacemaker. Not too serious, but in the circumstances will be staying with friends who have no internet. meanwhile, I am sure I'm not the only one, so would be interested in any restrictions this may cause. I gather that arc and mig welding are risky. Anything else, and what about ham radio?
