Unexplained Absenses

Some of you may have noticed a temporary suspension on blogging on my part. There was a very good reason. It involved this -


All is well now, and proved to be a much less scary scenario than originally thought. Emily and I are home again, she is almost back to normal - and I was incredibly thankful to have a shower yesterday after three nights as a guest of the NHS.

And just so you know. The NHS is bloody brilliant. Everyone we met there was amazing, and I cannot fault them for a thing.

Normal service will resume shortly, I just have a wee bit of sleep to catch up on - and my mother came down to help out so we are going to hang out together as well.

  1. Oh my goodness! I'm glad to hear that she's on the mend. I look forward to your next update, but not until after you're rested. Sleep is important. I would sleep till 9:30 every morning if I could.

  3. I agree, the NHS is brilliant. You don't know how it is until you need it. I am so glad that everything is on the way back to recovery and I'm so glad your Mum is there to lend a hand. I hope your own bed is as wonderful as mine is whenever I've been a guest of the NHS.

    Hope the recovery all goes smoothly and everything is back normal soon.
