Welcome back Fairy, were you not wearing your wings when you fell? Our hills are to be respected aren’t they? Did you have to be rescued? Did they send the handsome young men in the flying machine? Glad you are on the mend and thanks for cheering doc up, we are all a bit worried about him no heatwave here, our London family don’t seem to mind tho as we have plenty fresh air

Great to have you back, Fairy! Sorry to hear about your fight with the snowy hill, though. Hope the arm continues to improve...
This is the shiny thing I came home with yesterday, LG:
It's a tenor (or E flat) horn. Very like a tuba, only... rather smaller, and therefore a bit more manageable by someone like me (old and vertically challenged).
I practised this morning. Think I might be improving! A neighbour was using a circular saw at the time, so I rather thought I could get away with a bit of a noise without causing too much distress.
It's now warmer out than in, but I have to stay in the house while the electrician finishes off the bits & pieces he didn't have time for, last time he was here. (The cat is Not Amused that he is changing the smoke detectors, and is currently hiding behind the sofa.) The garden is calling so I hope he hurries up...
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Cheers ladies. Didn't need rescued LP, but it took me a while to get down [happened just near the summit] as I couldn't put any weight on my right arm.
My dad used to repair those Liri Keep up the practice - we'll be wanting to hear a recording soon. I'm sure you're making a much better sound than a circular saw It looks as if it's about as bright and warm as it's going to get out there today, so I'm going to take the barrow round the front and spread a bit of bark. I may be gone some time....
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Jolly hot out there now so I'm tempted to bare my legs and do some sunbathing for half an hour as they take forever to go brown. 4 acres, 5 hostas and 4 mint pots moved to the shady terrace now. 5 more to pot up for moving there although I think I might see about swapping the 3 that are the same as one I have in the ground.........
That is a fine looking instrument Liri. Enjoy. How long do you have the family for LP? Did they find dog friendly lodgings? Easy does it FG. Spreading bark with one arm will not be straightforward.

Sorry to butt in when I have no time to write more - (fantastic to see you back tho Fairy) - anyone had a hip replacement in France paid for by NHS and willing to talk to Saga magazine? Asking for a journalist relative. If so, PM me. Sorry, got to dash to Barbican now.

Lovely sunny day, managed a couple of hours outside, but then totally stuffed. Anyway, decisions have been made. I have decided to stop treatment and hope for the best. I really don't believe I could cope with Diabetes and renal failure as well, so i believe this is the best option, and who knows my heart function might improve. Mentally, I am very up and down, but I hope that having a plan may help that. Sorry if this is too much information for some. Right need to go and cook tea.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team

Hosta hugs to you both.
Hopefully, they will get to the bottom of it soon.
