Thanks for asking Tony. Margaret saw the physiotherapist today and she was very pleased with her progress. In 5 weeks she has achieved the movement that they normally expect after 12. Our problem is trying to stop her doing too much.
I have to wait until the 13th for the all clear to drive again, and I can't wait. Apart from that everything is fine.

Do you have a deer farm in your back garden Tony? You seem to eat a lot of Venison. I wish I had a good supply of it!
We are exhausted after a very long day here in Oslo, and just managed to stagger a couple of blocks to a Pakistani restaurant. Excellent meal, excellent service and best of all 20% discount with the Oslo card.
On the train to Bergen tomorrow for a rest .

The wife has been cutting our lawns every two weeks right through the winter.
Take care.

All the yellow footprints where I was stamping around taking snaps of a frozen camellia had turned green again and I could definitely see at least an inch of new growth, and God has decided to water it today so it looks super (compared to what it was)

Great news Barrie - keep up the mending but don`t overdo the new found energy Margaret - I did whilst the 53 stitches were healing and pulled "something" - seems ok now - 5 months would you believe ?
We get very reasonably priced venison steaks from our local Asda(Walmart) superstore and the flavour texture is delightful with no cholesterol either.
TT - some weeds are quite pretty and after all are only called "weeds" `cos they weren`t planted there purposely - nettles make good soup,young dandelion leaves are usesable in salad ( careful - they are diuretic hence the French name ....Pis en Lit !!! )
In my garden , if it grows and is pretty it can stay.............
Nest box with camera all ready to let to new tenants,Cyril conspicuous by his absence at the present and a bee spotted yesterday !!
It`s all go here.........................

That gets me thinking. How about a new thread called "Another Pedantic Thread" where we can all pick on other people's use of language with imputinity?
(Or whould that be where we can with impunity pick up on other people's use of language)???

I wouldn`t pick on you Gareth if that`s how you treat your PC

It's actually how I treat my work PC.
It's running Windows XP on a Pentium 4 with 1GB ram. Which is why I have so much time to use my laptop. Whatever I do takes hours!
Which is weird because a £10 RAM chip would fix it. But they won't buy it because it costs too much.
But they will pay me while I sit here!
No wonder the eceonomy is in the state it is in.
