Broken Knee

Stiff knee for the last few days has swollen up, so I can't practice this weekend.......nurse recommended euthanasia, but I declined......so she told me I had to come back and see the doctor about my blood pressure as it was very high at 190/104.......back on the pills!!!!.....must lose weight!!!!.....OK, OK I am trying.........

Going off subject yet again....but had three days working in London(Maida Vale...Little Venice)......installing wall panels in the garden of a £3.5 million house........hard work but good fun......landscaper and garden designer were so far up their own bottoms......but unfortunately they could not co-ordinate a drinking session in a beer factory.......fortunately for us, their incompetence had no adverse effect on our job apart from the garden wall at the bottom of the garden falling over!......we left some panels for them to fit when the wall is re-built!.....

What a Day!

It's Mothers Day, and to go off subject initially, please read and enjoy the following poem written by our daughter, Hannah, for her Mum.........


Mum, you have such a busy life,
Yet you always have time for me,
You never give up, you always try,
As you approach each challenge with happiness.

Mum, your spirits are always high,
Even though you're extremely hard working,
Your sense of humour and your amazing skills
Keep everyone happy.

Mum you are so fabulous,
Giving up time for everyone,
Your helpful and considerate ways,
Keep everyone smiling throughout the day.

Is that the coolest poem ever?....bar none!!!!!!!!!!

Back to the subject in hand........YES!....... I did it......(only once, but properly).....MY FIRST 'FREE MOUNT'..........so what?......well......it has been a long time coming, many sore shins, and stretched muscles.........and as far as I am personally concerned, it is , in progress terms, on a par with the efforts of the Wright Bros./ or my best mate Brian, who once did a full days work(ish)............
