Hello everyone,
I'm sitting in the Kettering hospital near me, where my Mrs is getting treatment after she injured 3 disc's in her lumbar spine. I'm watching her sleep under medication for extreme pain. This is day two. I'm using the hospital wifi for my tablet which kinda makes me uneasy...I don't like shared wifi.
I'll keep you posted
I hope she can recover and heal. I had "protruding disc" in my lower spine and they sent me to my knees. I know the pain but was able to recover. It took a couple of years but I made it thru. They can do miracles these days. I hope she recovers soon.
 
Most French people are quite happy to help with the language if you make an effort. They get, understandably, annoyed when visitors expect that they should all be able to speak English. And there are a lot of those people around. Also, when they learn English in school, it is mainly as a written language, so they have a palpable lack of confidence when speaking it.
I was a little nervous cuz you hear all the typical stories abt people having bad experiences.

But I had a great time. And people were nice. And bought my wife some really nice high end lingerie while I was there!!

Paris has to be the most beautiful city.
 
Back to pester you all,after a week away. What a week too…so tiring and full of emotion as I got to cuddle my beautiful grandson and my daughter. I don’t mind saying I got emotional,a few time this week and blubbed. No stiff upper lip for this English Gentleman lol. All that matters is Mum and baby are well despite the trauma thank the Lord.

Also saw my elderly uncle and aunt, two cousins and second cousin and her husband and children. They are over from Canada so it was precious and rare family time and a lunch. On the way home we stopped off with my mum so I celebrated another birthday with her and got out for lunch. Not many guys in their late sixties get to see their Mom on their birthday.

So home now feeling so blessed and great to be back amongst you friends drinking my pissy tea.
Wow! Sounds like a great week!

Yes, fam can bring a tear to your eye - and glad to hear daughter and grandson are doing fine.

And that you got to see relative and your mum. Sounds like a lot of family!!

And welcome back!!

Pissy tea coming right up!

Paris had got really quite tired and dirty but then they spent billions of euros tidying it up for the Olympic Games.Back to its shiny best now.
 
I missed something. What happened, Impy? 🫂🫂🫂
I woke up with lower back pain (understatement from hell) and couldn't move and ended up in the hospital for a few days. I have to see a physical therapist and have too many bulging discs in my back. I didn't know they were there and must have irritated them in my sleep somehow. Since out it has been getting better but movements are limited.

That is exactly what I went through. I hope they can get the pain to subside like they did me. It was such a relief to be able to move. 🤗 Hugs to you both!

I’m sorry you are in pain. I wondered what happened and figured I missed something while off doing election poll work.
 
I miss chasing Lilli but happy she is getting to bed earlier with sound sleep.

I slept in today which means not up at 4.

Today I see my girlfriend since she and her family went on a mini vacation. I also will be getting together with friends for football games.

Tomorrow I start baking and making vegetable soup.
