You spent TWO HOURS responding to our comments. Thank you so much. Now go rest. Take those pain pills, fight the boredom. Read those books you didn’t have time to. Ankles don’t heal in a day. We will be patient and wait. If we can’t find those delicious tidbits you feed to us so gently and kindly, well, then we don’t deserve to. The healing of your ankle is much more important right now. Do what the doctor says.

It’s been a very long and cold winter, so it s wonderful to see the trees full of spring blossom ( and as I can’t get upstairs, the garden room is my base- so it’s lovely to be able to have all the French doors open and imagine I’m loss lost outside! Thanks for your sympathetic comments Caitlin x
