Yes, it really is what the title suggests - pictures of my beloved father's knee!

He went in for a knee replacement op about 2 weeks ago now. The operation was successful and all went as planned at the business end but he developed a blood clot on his left lung. This meant an extra 3 nights in hospital, and Mum having to inject him in the stomach for 5 nights after he got home.

He's now on oral tablets and will continue to be for the next 3-5 months. No alcohol over Christmas and New Year - poor Dads.

Anyway, apologies for the quality of the pictures - taken by Mum and sent to me manually - as I don't have a scanner you are looking at a picture of a picture.

The white stockings are hospital issue btw, he doesn't usually wear them.
