Well it's been a busy few weeks.
Cobby was an absolute star and gave me a lift so I could join
Leo
Lin
Steph and
Rob camping at Shell Island.
We were joined there by
Anne +
Mark and Karen.
It was the normal break - eating porridge and sipping red wine for breakfast.
One amusing moment was overhearing a conversation between father and son...
"What's are those dad?"
"They're dolphins"
"What's a dolphin?"
"A dolphin is a dog that doesn't have any legs"
How fucked up is that kid going to be having a parent like that???
Dawn and
Steve came to visit for a few days and then I went down to join them in London along with
Naomi,
ladyeleanor and
justjessannein between that my grandmothers health deteriated.
As
Jennie is considered family, she wanted to come and see nan while she had the chance, and bought
Ella with her [as seen in some previous photospamming]
It's possible that I enjoyed having Ella visit although I deny any accusations that I go all gooey when she's here.
As for nan, the doctors have decided that it's time to stop treating her.
All they will do now is control her pain.
Obviously they can't give an accurate timescale, but they think she has more than days but less than months.
The nurses have been really good to her. In fact, when the doctor broke the news, the nurses were crying more than mom and aunty irene.
Has been fun and games at work but with the way things are I don't think it's a good idea to discuss it in a public post.
Well, I'm sure there's more, but for now that's all I've got to say.
