Good news - got a new set of tyres for the bike, corners faster now
Bad news - they cost £235 - didn't get a free jacket at that price which I assumed I would
Medical news - Joe's in tomorrow for another operation..... they're going to go in through his belly button and...... and I stopped paying attention at that point cause I assumed they were joking.......apparently they're not
It's more of a exploratory operation cause he's missing a testicle.... but his belly button!! I'm sure I saw that in a cartoon once.

Better to get that kind of thing sorted out when still young... last thing any lad wants is his first GF calling him nuts ;o)
Oh and if they find it.... I can give some first hand advice - don't let any family members go into hospital and make him laugh. They tie the bugger back down and use a thread taped to your leg - when you laugh it pulls and then you go OUCH.

My best wishes for Joseph!
As you might notice Light, we're totally ignoring your motorcycle-news...
Just as Varg, I am feeling this weird tickling in my own bellybutton now, just at the thought of that operation...

Best wishes for the ruggie.
I had one lopped off when I had cancer a few years back, and much to my suprise, they didn't cut it off, but rather, out through the stomache wall.
Damn, I can never wear a low cut bikini again <ahem>
Remember kids are pretty bloody resilient...they regularly mash themselves up and heal at an ungodly rate that makes trolls envious!
Good luck and keep positive.

Last wednesday my 3 year old son had to go to hospital. He had a suspected twisted testicle, the only way to know for sure was to open his sac and have a look. It turned out to be a small growth on his testicle that became twisted.
Yes, I am pleased that I just made all the blokes cringe with this

...and yes you are always right.
I'll find a way to feed u guys updates tomorrow, they'll not let me take a laptop to the hospital... some nonsense about delicate equipment.... talk about drama, you should have seen them when I asked if I could do a live video feed with satellite uplink!

Well I can tell you now.... if you're not sick don't eat at a hospital cafe, they're definitely trying to drum up business!
Joe's op went well.
We got there about 8:00, (well I got there about 7:30 cause I have expensive tyres), he got all settled in and just played with everything which was good as he'd not had breakfast or slept as long as he would normally.
His op was scheduled for 10 but he didn't get taken through until about 11:10 and then he was back with us by about 12:45 I think.
Now if you're squeemish look away........
...they went in through the belly button, put two cameras in and had a good look about.... as they couldn't see anything they came out and made another hole a bit lower down and to the right. Sent in one camera and sure enough they found the elusive testicle. It hadn't really developed and wasn't viable so they just whipped it out, no extra charge. Stitched him up, slapped him on the arse I expect for good measure and gave him back.
He's an ideal kid to operate on in my opinion as he doesn't seem to ever fuss. They kept telling us that he'd cry as they administered the anaesthetic but he didn't... he just giggled, laid back and closed his eyes. Coming round he didn't really cry either... he dropped 'lion' at one point and that caused a bit of a disturbance but given what they'd just done to him I think he was remarkable relaxed.
I left him dozing quietly. He should be home by the end of the afternoon and as far as they're concerned that's it, job done. The only reason they might ever need to see him again would be if he wants to get a prosthetic one

Your only other concern, and something you may want to have a chat with the quacks about, is that lads with an undecended one have a much greater chance of developing testie cancer in later life.
I'm not sure of the differences if they bring it down and stick it back in the bag or if they just leave it where it is.
Take a look at the everyman website - I'm sure that they will have some kind of info regarding this.
Those tyres sound good though
