  1. I always privately insure at secursus.com It’s cheap as chips and I’ve been using them for years. They insure any parcel anywhere…
  2. That is not expensive…
  3. The recovery picture I meant to post (my wife used the wrong one)…
  4. I don’t get paid: I’m self employed. I get nothing until I go back to work! I do have a second chance though and that is priceless ✝️
  5. I don’t get paid: I’m self employed. I get nothing for 3 months…
  6. You don’t pay in a Canada. I got a health card as soon as I got here and there you go: just like in England. You don’t even need a health card in England…
  7. Surgery went really well. Triple bypass done and in/out in 3 hours…
  8. Can’t frikkin have breakfast can I? Nil by mouth since midnight 🤷‍♂️
  9. I had a small heart attack last Monday that is something of a blessing as it highlighted major problems! My coronary arteries have had it (up to 95% narrowed in 9 places). Hospital kept me in for an angiogram. Angiogram highlighted the problems so I’ve been in hospital since. My surgeon came to see me today and said rather than a triple, he is likely to go with a 4 or 5 new arteries. He said because my heart is so strong I’ll be fine under the knife. It will be a 4-6 hour affair with full chest opening. He is taking replacement arteries/veins from my chest/left arm and if need be, inside thigh. Im not scared but for those of you of faith, I would appreciate your prayers. Victor…
  10. Everything about that is pretty bad (IMO). And I have been a fan of Megadeth since the start...
  11. The Korean serials mean nothing! It was made between 1992 and 1998 probably at the original Cort (Cortek) factory. Production stopped in Korea in 1998 for most import models. Later import deluxe models were made in Korea between 2000 and 2002… The Slammers are very good guitars and likely have Duncan Designed pickups (likely made by Artec in Korea). I personally love Artec pickups…
