  • Scrumpy Latest

    For those of you who know Scrumpy has been very lame for several weeks now, we finally had a call from the Supervet place today with her MRI results.                                     Seems good news so far – they are…

  • Better News

    Just a quickie to say that H and I have just been to see his new consultant, Vincent Khoo. And thank god there was a very important bit of news, which is that his PSA score has dropped down quite a way.  Just this alone seems to indicate that he is deemed a 'responder' –…

  • Bohemian Rhapsody

    Managed to drag Mr H out on a chilly Sat eve, to see this at the cinema. Can see why it won a bunch of awards last night, what a great film. Best thing? Looking sideways and seeing H smiling most of the way through the film, first time he’s looked happy since this new…

  • H Latest

    Hi all Just to let you know that H has asked me not to put any updates on here about his health for the time being. Hopefully he may feel differently after a bit more time, but for now, that's why I'm not updating on here as I usually would x

  • Hawksey’s BEST Christmas Present in 9 Years

    But the BESTEST thing that happened this Xmas was that yesterday, Hawksey met up with Zoe, his daughter. Who is now 18 and was able to pick him up in her car from Bristol station. We haven't seen her since she was 9 years old – a long and sad story – and H has…

  • A Spot of Christmas

    Well, we've tried to make the most of it and thanks to everyone who has popped by, send cards and texts and generally helped to perk us up while we wait for more news for H. Hawksey had his annual 'Gentleman's Dinner' a few weeks back – seemed to go with a swing – and…

  • Hawksey Update

    So we went at 8pm last night for the follow up appointment with Prof Huddart, having waited 2 weeks for more definite news of Hawksey's position and diagnosis. Another frustrating appointment, which certainly left us feeing that we will be switching to the alternative consultant in the NY. One thing that particular pissed us off…

  • H’s Next Appointment

    … is tomorrow evening (wed). Apparently the consultant still only has half the results back from the re-assessment, so it's sounding like we may not know a whole lot more until possibly the NY now. Very frustrating, not an impressive start with this guy, so we are looking into switching to a second chap who…

  • Fishy on a Little Dishy

    H hosts an annual 'Gentlemen's Dinner' which this year gave rise to the need to head off to Billingsgate Market at gnat's crack, to buy a pile of seafood for that evening's event. First point of note – how lovely it is driving through London when there's no traffic. All dark and feeling quite Christmassy..…

  • Xmas Romance

    Despite what's happened, we are determined to still have a bloody good Christmas this year. So went to Wimbledon Park and bought a massive tree – this certainly wouldn't have fitted in our old house. And went crazy with some new John Lewis baubles too – we are WILD. Had a very nice couple of…
