Me back too ......
Hi Guys, just back from a week with my spanking brand new grandson Luke.
Hope to post a pic soon.
And here's something to consider on this gloomy Sunday afternoon !
It doesn't hurt to take a hard look at yourself from time to time, and this should help get you started.
During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criterion was which defined whether or not a patient should be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.
"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"

Thanks for that Leslie and good luck to you too on a swift recovery. Hospitals eh ? can't live with 'em and can't live without 'em.
I hope you will soon be able to potter around the daffs in the garden.

Thanks Les, don't know if you have grandchildren but there's something special about seeing them arrive on the scene. Makes you realise what all the strife and tears (and laughter of course ) was all about. Like a completion of a huge circle. As they say on a certain advert...."I'm lovin' it "! Yve
