Waves feebly

I have been ill. And overworked. But mostly ill.

A short time before Mr Brammers gave me his virus, he decided we should switch ISPs. In theory this was a good idea, in actuality, it was weeks of me having no internet. While dying. I tried to read a book. It was Wolf Hall. It fell on my face every time I every time I felt faint. Alas, I felt faint quite a bit. That is one big bloody book.

Looking forward to the political satire.

The good news is that I have gmail and easy chat functioning again! I know I owe you at least one email, probably several! Will track things down tonight. Possibly tomorrow. Somewhat 'And now I fall into a coma' at the moment …

No hurry. Enjoy your coma. :)
