It hasn't affected it really, in the sense that what I do - of course I can't dance like we used to do. Although we go to a dance, where both of us were good dancers, ballroom dancers - and since I've had my heart attack even after the first one, when I had a very good quality of life, we'd go to a dance and dance and I'd dance round. Once round the floor and I'd be a bit fatigued, feel a bit of pressure across the chest in some cases, and I'd sit down, but after sitting down and missing a dance, have the same again, another dance. But during the holiday I've just had, I'm afraid I got up and tried to have two or three goes at dancing and couldn't. Just had that one of those, waiting two years for the holiday and it was just too much. But having said that, I could still walk about, I could still talk, still eat very well, still got my weight back.
I miss being as active and not playing my golf like I used to, and that really hurt because I used to be a good golfer, and it's only two years ago or 15 months ago and I used to go round the county with that, I used to love that, three times a week. That was all my sporting and that's all I needed to do really. But at my age now there's not many up at the golf course there of 80+ that do play, but if I go back and can get back and if I can do nine holes, once or twice a week I would be satisfied.
