Hi everyone .
Today on a lighter note i have decided to let you see some of the wonderful wildlife in our new garden , one of the reasons why we love our new house ...we certainly did escape to the country. Being in the countryside with a river at the bottom of the garden certainly attracts the wildlife and i have been trying to take some pics for you to see . Last night we had rabbits on the driveway , an owl at the bottom of the garden and best of all we have a Cookoo who regularly visits the trees in the garden. Robert is also able to look at the blog on his iphone , so this too will cheer him up a little. You will notice an very unusual black creature with his Iggle Piggle toy , well this is of course our lovely little Harry gaurding his toys from those pesky birdies.Harry,s favourite tv show is called " In the night garden " He loves his new garden and is amazed at all the sights and sounds around him. I will try to keep up with the blog and i will let you all have another update on Robert shortly.

  4. I've only just caught up with what has been going on with you both. I'm so sorry to hear that Robert is in hospital. Please send him my best wishes and I'll be praying for him, as I did for you last year. It's about time you both had a bit better luck. Love Dawn x

  8. Hiya Robert, Gordon and Harry and not forgetting the ladies ! Only just caught up today - this being retired is a joke - you never stop !! Glad you're feeling up to things more now Robert. what a brilliant idea with the written synopsis(get me!) of how you feel So........ while you're laying there.......why not get some ideas jotted down about how it could be developed to work for other folk (to buy) to make themselves understood? then, when you're back home,you and Gordon could 'tweak' it? This would be good for adults and children and all nationalities. Just think of the good you will be doing - not to mention keeping you out of mischief!! Much love to you both, Cynthia
