Re-connected

Hoo-roar! We're connected again. The BT engineer was here this morning and did some fiddling and we have a new phone number and we have broadband- and no longer need to piggy-back on Sam's. It's over a month now since this comedy kicked off. 

Eric is still in hospital. When we saw him yesterday he was on a 48 hour course of antibiotics- after which he may be fit to be released back into the community.

We've been getting ourselves ready for Mike's wedding at the weekend. I tried on my suit and it still fits as well as it ever did (thank goodness).  It was made for my father by a London tailor (not Saville Row but somewhere nearby) and he was shorter in the arms and a little narrower in the chest than I am but not by so much that I can't carry it off.  Later I helped Ailz shave her legs and she cut my hair. What a smart old couple we're going to be.

I hope there will be photos of you two looking all sharp!

Eventually, perhaps. I'll be taking my camera to the wedding.

I'm so glad the connection nightmare is over for you!
And yes to photos of you both!
:)

Perhaps.

Like most people I'm a little camera shy.
