We catch up with Peter days after his recent op however the operation isn’t the main topic of discussion – Poogate is! Follow up appointments and bandages are off and for the first time Peter gets a glimpse of how his new chest will look just a case of waiting for the bruises and swelling to go down. Peter reflects on how he felt about the whole operation and how the goal was to be more confident to take his top off but today is a big day as his main goal – learning to swim is just around the corner. Don’t worry Mr. P as you’ll soon be sunning it up in The Maldives!

Hi there Peter. Loved the film. I think you are very brave person and you should be proud of what you have achieved. I really enjoyed watching you speak after your first swimming lesson. You have a happy twinkle in your eyes.

Keep up the good work and Debs well done for being such a supportive wifey :-).

Love ya xx

Hey you two, just dropped by to watch one of your videos (and I chose this one) congratulaitions on your op and on learning to swim. I know you went to the Maldives a while a go now (but I don’t get as much time as I would like to do special things like watch your videos and broadcasts) so I’ll be looking out for you in the next Olympics Peter!!! It was a brave thing to go through that op and also to video it. Can I just say that I love your whacky personality big time but it is also really nice to watch you and hear you talk about important issues calmly and with such logic. You are a fantastic role model to a lot of people and I know when Kim needed advice, you were one of the first people she contacted. What a wife you have there!!!! extra special couple!!!! lots of love always. ps love the new physique xxxxx!!!
