  • Weekend on Skye

    Just back from three nights in our snug cottage on Skye with Janine and Ross for Hawksey's birthday. One particularly fab sunny day, yes honestly, which heralded the boys heading masterfully off on the Brigadoon boat for a half day fishing, and returning 5 hours later with one giant pollock care of Mr H and…

  • Long time no blog

    So then, there I was on Monday morning, pretty bleary from the weekend and hawksey's early birthday revelries, gearing myself up for a start of the week mini blog.

  • Good old Mum

    So, I get back from hockey yesterday a bit later than usual, about 4pm – and Mum's sitting in the lounge, in front of the TV which has gone off, without the light on, looking a bit blue. Me: 'Hey Mum, how you doing?' Mum: 'Well I'm feeling a bit sad actually, no-one came to…

  • Prof update – all ok

    Hi Just heard that my paraprotein score is still stable at 2 – good news, though weirdly enough, for the first time, not a massive relief for some reason. I think partly as the sesion with him on Tues was one of the MASSIVELY ANNOYING ones – him blathering on about how cells have behaved…
