My wife finally seems to have got rid of the bronchial infection.
She still has mild balance problems for which she takes a few more pills (inner ear??) but the worst seems over. Jamaica helped and seemed to be the turning point. What a bastard that thing was (two horrible months) - fortunately not catching or I had had it long ago and was immune. Now she just needs a little rest.

The BBC covering El Classico for helpfully translating the headline in AS for us. "Cuestion de honor". I'm not sure how I'd have figured it out, without 'em.

Last week I bought an Amazon Firestick.........with a few installed extras, for 50 quid. I'm now sat flicking between the cricket and the Leicester match without handing a princely sum to Murdoch. I'm very happy about this.

I am so happy today, because my Granddaughter has just informed me she has just got into UCLAN, to study what she wanted, Mental Health Nursing. She has studied so hard, and I am so proud of her!!
