Thanks Gabriele

You are not wrong about the flap - it certainly has caused me alot of grief and continues to do so.

I'm sure the plastic surgeon will have plenty to say about it when I see him in the near future - you can actually see him cringe when I walk into his office............. I keep telling myself, As long as he CAN DO something that is the main thing.
