Thanks everyone for your kind words.

It’s been a difficult few weeks and I’m rather tired to say the least.
It’s not fair to Dad to go into details about his problems but I will allow myself a small indiscretion.
He’s not a man burdened by an excess of patience which does not make the day pass in an atmosphere of tranquillity.

Although I have yet to take an interest in pre-paid funeral plans and elasticated waistbands, I have to come to terms with the fact that I am further down life’s path than I am comfortable with.
This manifests itself in very low energy levels.
Pausing only to refer to the Home Apothecary and Almanack of Ye Bodily Ailements (a copy never leaves my side) I find that I am what is known to medical science as bloody knackered.
That’s it in a nutshell really!

I’ll try to catch up and put in a more regular appearance from now on.

And...

I was only kidding, three women.
Well, if it was good enough for the mutineers of HMS Bounty...
