Been a while ...

... since the last post.
No reason, not blue, just tired.
So, to catch up ... I burned my arm about a week ago, it got infected and there was pus. I think it's going to develop into a reasonably cool scar. I'll be able to tell people I got it in a kitchen fight, or something.
I've ordered some new, quite fancy, pens and am waiting for them to arrive. I hate waiting.
I saw a poor little dead flying fox on the way home, hanging from some power lines.
And today at lunchtime I sneezed 5 times without it hurting. Huzzah!

O, and it looks like Italy in July is the go! Anybody wanna come keep me company while Mr Brown plays with his boating friends?

I have missed your blog, but I'm VERY guilty of not keeping mine up-to-date. Hope your arm's better and that the pus has gone now. Your new pens will help you forget your troubles.

Italy is my dream...

PS. Bless you

Italy! If that doesn't lift the spirits after a kitchen fight, nothing will! Where in Italy? I have only been to one city in Italy and that was many, many years ago. I am green with envy.

Will you be able to see Ilva? And, I hope Mr Brown watches out for Somali pirates. (How does he get his boat there?)

Zoomie, Malcesine, on Lake Garda! And I want to introduce Mr Brown to Siena and Assisi because I loved them so.
Cookie, I do hope so. Mr Brown will be careful but I don't think they have many pirates on Lake Garda. Rest assured, he boat travels over in a big container, with other boats for company, too small for high seas sailing :)
Wendy - it WAS a parcel day and it was a pen parcel! Huzzah!

Delighted that you have progressed from horror over pus to anticipation of a "cool scar"!
I too hope you meet up with the lovely Ilva.
And congratulations on pain free sneezing. It really is the little things that mean so much.

Which pen?! Errgh, I'm still "in process."

Much relieved to hear about the lake. :)
