Glad to see you back Frank and well on the road to recovery. Your garden will aid your recovery and how lovely that your family have kept it all going whilst you were away. Onwards and upwards as they say. I am more of a lurker these days, but t'other Nickie has kept me posted!
Quite a few lurkers around Nicki I now tend to lurk on the history program though got stuck in today to put things right. Been getting texts all day from Daughters then a lovely surprise present from Betty's sent by my sister, a lovely cake which I can now eat thank goodness. Daughter came to cook my tea but said I had more energy than she had so I got my own. Lovely afternoon resting in the sunshine, my garden is certainly giving me strength, "err" could also be the food?
Sincere thanks to you all and hugs very welcome anytime. Sorry David, the dreaded "C" word has to be mentioned to show there is hope when it is found, I saw the photo's and thought, "it looks like a big red cauliflower what sauce would it need" you are in their hands so trust them. My Daughter tells me they can mend over 70% now a few years back it would have been virtually none, now that is progress.
Breakfast of pills and porridge done, now a lovely shower and as the sun is shining yet again out to my sun trap patio to get browned off, "oh" and the long handled Dutch hoe handy for any weeds within reach my Family missed, well there is always one. Mike getting into the garden or just sitting in the conservatory has been a tonic to beat them all, take care. Alan get yourself out there it certainly lifts the spirits.
Clarification time, Frank. The 'C' word I had in mind was 'CAKE', hence my remark 'prepare to be inundated'. I quote: "Been getting texts all day from Daughters then a lovely surprise present from Betty's sent by my sister, a lovely cake which I can now eat thank goodness."
Seems we're not the only ones hereabouts who can bake a cake and several have been known to whip them out on the slightest pretext.

PS. Betty's are exceedingly good cakes.
