New growth looks perfect. Couldn't be better. You've stopped the pyramiding.
Thank you Tom, that means even more coming from you. I'm really find if the little guy and want to do my very best for him. Thanks again. [emoji4]

You've done great. Those little bumps on top will likely become completely unnoticeable in time.

Yes, old pyramiding will always be there just in the scheme of things TOTALLY unnoticeable when he's bigger if you continue the good smooth growth. The part that is raised(schutes...spelling?) will never grow it stays the same size it's the part between those raised areas(growth lines?) that grows as you can see yours is growing smooth in between those raised areas...

Thank you everyone. I'm so relieved, I just couldn't work out what was new and what it looked like - I guess my worrying meant I couldn't see clearly.
Thank you for all the advice that's helped me to look after Goliath.
