Dave Wooley

I Don,t know if everyone knows but , Dave Wooley is very sick in hospital , hope he gets well soon.

Hi Dave

Thanks for letting us know and if Dave reads this I hope he has a fast recovery.

Paul

Not quite correct Dave, the post on the Mayhem website is a bit exaggerated I'm afraid.

Dave Wooley has been in contact with both myself and Paul Freshney earlier this week. He has been admitted to hospital to deal with a long standing condition that his doctors now consider to require surgical attention. The prognosis is good, he is not expected to be in hospital very long and anticipates making a full recovery in a month or two if all goes well.

So no need to panic or for a stream of posts wishing him a speedy recovery. That goes without saying. Paul or I will post updates if and when it becomes appropriate. In the meantime his regular Rangefinder column in Model Boats will continue as usual.

Colin thank you for the update, Jane and I wish Dave a safe spell in hospital and a painless recovery.

Does removal of a camera permanently in his hand come under National Health

I Was only letting Model Boat guys know as soon as i read it on Mayhem , I am sorry if i have upset anyone.

Best Regards Dave

That's OK Dave. Dave Wooley does a lot of work for Model Boats and we had understood that he didn't want to go public at this stage. The post on Mayhem was a bit alarmist and didn't reflect our understanding of the situation. When there is any further news we will let our members know.

I can confirm that Dave Wooley is back home now and he expects to make a full recovery, and quite quickly too.

Indeed, he seemed to be his usual cheerful self this morning.

Paul.
