I haven't noticed any posts from him for a while..
I might have to phone the old bugger..
Hope he's OK.
He's ok, he's been sending me PMs on Facebook. He's heading off to another place in India soon for a few days, before returning to the UK for a while.
It's Zoony, not Crabby, Raven.
Ooopppps, sorry it's been a long awkward day, feeling too tired, I really should have an early night and end it. :embarrassed:
I had a coffee with Crabby a few days ago..
I know he is fine..
But it is most unusual for Zoony to be quiet for so long..
He was on line today according to the Members list.
I wondered how to check whether he had been on here..
Now I know.. At least we know he is alright.

I looked at the Members List.. but I couldn't see where it shows when a member was last on line..
On the other hand I might be stupid. :nooo:
It shows in the admin list but for anybody else you need to click the name and it shows you in the profile.
He was around yesterday but hasn't posted since the 9th. I reckon you need to get on the blower Scrumpy to make sure he's OK.
Any news?
He must be ok if he can physically log in, maybe he just wants a break from posting ?
I had a voicemail from Zoony last night.. At the moment he is in hospital..
hope it isn't serious 🤞🤞🤞
Get well soon Zoony
Get well soon Zoonster! :upvote:
Did he not say that he took a right tumble a week or so back.:hmm: Maybe it was worse than expected. OR, am I thinking of someone else.:hmm:

That may have been me. Still very sore!
OMG get well soon Zoony ! 💐
Hope you're soon back home again, Zoony.
D,C &M
I'm late seeing this. Hope you are better soon zoony.
Me too. All the best.
No news as yet.. Unable to get a message to him.. Everything seems to be shut down..
He obviously doesn't have his mobile with him.. He would get in touch again if he could..
Just have to wait..
here's hoping that he is OK - if you do manage to communicate at some stage, please give him my best
Mike
I certainly will.. The first thing he will want to know is if he was missed.. :smiley:
I'll tell him 'Nobody asked '...
I've emailed him too, no response for three days, which is unusual, but not unknown if the dear chap is suffering ...
I have found out where Zoony is and have sent him a card .. I told him to
' Stay calm.. I am planning your escape' .
well done!
Thank you Scrumpy pass my best wishes to him please
Good work Scrumpy!
Well done Scrumpy. It's such a shame as he had said he was feeling a bit better not so long ago.
I have found the old bugger..
Phoned the hospital.. They gave me a ward number.. It was like trying to get into Fort Knox... Terrible .. terrible ..
Twisted the arm of the young girl who answered..
She got the phone to Michael..
He was so excited he needed his breathing machine.. :grin:
:upvote: :upvote: :upvote:
well done :upvote: :upvote: :upvote:
Well done Lass! :clap: :clap:
I know Michael wont mind me telling you what is happening..
It is possible that he might have to go into a care home.. The hospital are looking into it..
When talking about it Michael said 'It is what it is..'

Oh that's such a shame, I hope he recovers enough to stay at home with carer's looking in daily. [1100] [1100]
Thanks for finding him Scrumpy :upvote: I do hope it doesn't come to him having to leave his home, but if he does have to move, he'll at least have people around him. "It is what it is" a great attitude from Zoony, I don't think I'd be feeling the same, it's life changing.
I am sure he will be back on the forum as soon as he is able..

Hope so!
Have you heard anything else from Zoony Scrumpy? I hope he is ok.
Sheila .. There is no way that I can communicate with Zoony.
There is no signal in his room/ward.. He is unable to get outside at the moment.. I had to suck up to person who answered my call to the ward to even get the phone taken to him..
And , on top of it all, the food is crap...
Sounds pretty miserable. Fingers crossed he's home soon.
yeah - he doesn't need all this
Mike
Michael phoned me yesterday.. He has been moved to an extension ward.. and now has a signal..
The new extension looks out over fields that he and Alan Dooley ran wild in as children..
I could understand little of what was said.. Bad line !!..Michael struggling !!..
He can do little for himself .. I will not go into details..
He was so, so happy to hear my voice and made me smile when he said..
' I can now tell you, again, to Shut the feck up' :grin:
I am so pleased that he is , once again, running with Alan Dooley..
I have spoken to Grabby.. and he hopes to speak to Michael very soon.. When his phone allows..... I felt that giving him Michael's number could only be a good thing.. Crabby is a kind, gentle man.. He is just a prat sometimes.. !!
Glad you managed to speak to him Scrumpy, no idea of when, or even if he may go home then ?
Alex.. He needs too much care .. He has been in hospital a few weeks now and I don't think his condition has altered..
This is what I can make out when talking to him.
Gawd that's awful, if I had a decent reliable car I'd go visit him.
Scrumpy,
Please give him all my best if you manage to speak to him, bless him. Jac
It's a pity that we can't take food parcels in for him.
I will tell him that you are thinking about him..
He will be delighted to know that he is ( important)..
July 06, 2022, 06:29:43 PM
I have just spoken to Michael.. I did mention you all.. It made him happy..
He said 'Tell them I am fighting it as hard as I can.. and I'm not dead yet.'.

I was thinking about Zoony again over the last few days.
I do hope he will be OK
Mike
Would be nice if we could ALL send him a card, can you give us the hossie address Scrumpy ?
That's a good idea Alex but we would need his surname as well. Maybe a private message for those of us who would send one?
How would we go about doing it?
Count me in if it can be arranged - like the rest of us, I miss him and wish him well
Mike

I'm think his surname is on his You Tube songs, it's on his e-mail address, which I've got on my old PC. We need ward number and the hossie address I guess . See what Scrumpy thinks.
He would be so excited to receive cards from you..
Michael. A . Ball. C/O Stepping Hill Hospital.. Stockport..
You will find the full address on google.
On the reverse of the envelope I wrote his name and age 72.
My card got there..
GrannyMac has already asked me for these details..
My card will be on its way in a moment. I'm not fond of Get Well Soon cards so I made a custom one from some card software I have.
Hospital address..
Stepping Hill Hospital
Poplar Grove,
Hazel Grove,

Thank you for putting the address up..
Any card will do.. Homemade ones are brilliant..
In my card I wrote. ' stay where you are.. I am planning your escape.'..

That is a great card..
Great card klondike :upvote: I'll get one tomorrow.
Brilliant. :upvote:
Excellent k.
Card will be in the post this morning
Mike
He will wallow in his popularity for ages.. There will be no stopping him...
What have we done..!!
:upvote: :upvote: :upvote:
Got a card for Zoony will post it later this morning.
Do you have the Ward name or number for him?
I just put his name and (patient) so nobody think it's for a member of staff or whatever
Mike
No ward name.. He was moved recently.. A card will get there without a ward name..
I'm on it for tomorrow. Couldn't find a sarky one today..
posted today
What a lovely bunch of people you are..
I have just spoken to Michael..
Not too good.. he isn't very strong..
I did ask him what the doctors have told him.. he said they tell him nothing..
We giggled when he said he was going to phone the police and report himself as a missing person.. Then he might learn something about himself..
:grin: :grin:
Well done Scrumpy, I'm sure your phone call meant a lot to him. Hope the cards are a nice surprise too.
