I've got a tan!!!

Great weather whilst I was away, although I was particularly happy about going on holiday whilst mum had her op.

Dad gave us a good running commentary about how she was getting on. He said he wasn't worried, but I knew he was because he kept gabbing, and that ISN'T like dad!!!

I called round to see mum on Saturday, a couple of hours after I got back. Dad changed the dressing on mum wound only to find out it was weeping. It was like a yellowy brown colour and ran down her back and soaked into her pyjama top. She was near to tears because that's what happened on the Thursday night after the op and they thought she had an infection.

She's on oral anti-biotics now after been taken back to the hospital by dad. She has to go back in today for the staples to be removed. If the infection is there, she might have to stay in and go onto intravenous anti-biotics.

Annyyyyyyways....I'm back!!!!

woohoo about you being back with a tan and hope mum gets better soon

aaah...she'll be fine. We don't call her battle axe for nothing you know

That's good news.

about your trip. We're not going until the end of July, and I bet it rains then.

Off to IW? If so, which ferry are you getting?

Lymington to Yarmouth. We're staying in a B&B over near Ventnor, with someone who sounds slightly excentric.

That reminds me I must book the tickets!!!!

I've got a tanits called rust!



Lil will be ok, she's got me by her side and germs don't like me

We were at Ventnor last Friday and I lost my Virgin signal...ended up getting a french one instead!!!

Hiya Prof I'll make sure you follow mum around

VV, I get phone updatesfrom Lil's hubby

I know...between you and ST and phone calls to me on holiday, I think dad's voice might be waining a bit

keeps BT in profit though

I've got a tan - it's partly from a day spent out guiding 6 year olds round the campus on a countryside experience day; and partly from a weekend spent in Cornwall.

Glad Lil is on the mend.

hi hun glad you enjoyed it and glad your back

I could have waved to you on the Isle of Wight, because I walked beach near the Isle of Wigh around that time.

You were visiting your sister were you not?

yes, I was there with my whole family. on saterday they started to walk from some where Isle of Wight and Christchurch towards the Isle of Wight. because my mom and I can not walk that far we went to Christchurch.

Yes...I did see that there was something to do with walking going on on the Island.

they stayed on the beach of the mainland with view on Isle of Wight.

I am bad with names if I am not alone or do not have know axactly where I am.

I would imagine it would be somewhere near Yarmouth. It has a lovely beach to the West.

Good news!!! Good news!!!

Mums back home. She has to go back again on Thursday, but everythings lookin good!!!
