Today the main problem has been quite severe pain, necessitating extra morphine. Ah well, the medics always say that they may make things worse before they get better, so here's hoping. I was quite taken aback by how angry and bad-tempered it made me feel. After the umpteenth apology to Christine she reminded me that it was only just over a week ago that we were on holiday with some lovely folk from the village. We went to the west coast of Majorca, and one of the highlights for me was visiting the place where Chopin over-wintered. It is a converted monastery - now a museum, with a piano he had sent over from Spain, several of his manuscripts, and the most wonderful garden with views over the valley and hills. Although small, it was planted with scented plants such as jasmine, and felt like a little of heaven on earth.
Have been out of action for a few days - visitors etc. Thought I would catch up on your blog and find out how things are going. By the way, I did forward your site address to RH in Portugal, and no doubt he will be in touch.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about the pain level, and hopefully with the help of the morphine, it is now under control and you are able to enjoy this beautiful day. Not quite the temperature of the latter part of Wood Tours in Majorca, but still pretty good.
Loved the reference to Lord Bradbury's rear. Note he hasn't posted a reply to that one!
