Thank you all! I'm definitely getting the vibes, especially from Peepsie, who is a bit closer at the moment than everybody else (apart from Malc, who hasn't started yet, by the looks of things - any excuse, Malky!). Hope the head's not too fuzzy this morning, Peeps. Very apt, Bill - Starlight Express was great. Took the kids to see it when we were in London many years ago. They would have been about 11 and 8 and they loved it.
Had a "picollo" (200ml) bottle of champagne, well sparkling wine, last night to celebrate - just about knocked me out. Lost my stamina, I'm afraid. Off for a walk this morning in the sunshine - very deceptive - there's a cold wind blowing and it looks pretty chilly out there, so will be rugging up warm. Hopefully it will have warmed up a bit by the time we get out there. Then our neighbours across the road are having drinks and a barbecue this afternoon/evening, so going over to celebrate a bit more, but will probably only stay for a couple of hours. They've apparently got outdoor heaters, but methinks it could be a bit chilly even so.
It's son John's 24th birthday tomorrow. He's decided to celebrate tonight with friends at the pub and then probably the city instead of having them all round here, (breathes a sigh of relief) so I'll probably be giving him a lift down there this afternoon.
It's no wonder the unwashed masses are scared to post here.
Phwawgh! Just as well, Diane ... my sense of smell has become very acute since the chemo.
I think a refill of coffee is in order - if nothing else, to warm me up!
