A stroke of luck


I must be the luckiest blighter alive.

On Friday the 13th of December, a date of ill omen, I suffered a stroke, a bleed on the brain.  I was taken in to our local hospital and a week later I  was sitting up in bed, chatting with old friends who had come to visit and check on my progress.


As I typed this on Christmas Eve, I was looking forward to seeing my two lovely granddaughters on the big day tomorrow.


Don't get me wrong. I haven't just walked away from this serious incident unaffected, but it could have been so much worse.  I'm still walking, talking and getting a weekly game in, even if I am half-blind now.  


Before all of this trouble. I was making a little progress on my backlog. including this famous archaeologist in a ruined temple.

Until next time, health & happiness to you all
