Is it Christmas or something....?

well its like this.....everything started to go wrong when we left Daph last night in her room feeling quite chipper & looking really better than she had for some time. So its 7.30pm & we are eating dinner. That will be your mother C says as the phone starts to ring. I pick up & guess who it is ? Its Rob at Fremantle Court. Daph has fallen & they can't get her up as her hip is giving her pain. Ambulance on the way. Shoes on & hastily finish dinner & we still beat the ambulance. They arrive and not taking any chances get her on a spinal board & dash to Stoke Mandeville Hospital where they have to queue at the door owing to unprecedented demand. Carol stayed with Daph & I came home. Following tests & Xrays the verdict comes back that she has broken her right hip. The hospital gets her comfortable & I pick Carol up at 2am this morning & so to bed.

Up later than planned to get the final bits of shopping needed. Carol rang SMH to be told that she is in surgery having some bolts fitted. A bit complicated though because of her nasty chest infection.....

Nicola came to pick up C & they both went to see her at about 1430..I picked C up at 1745. In the mean time I dusted the lounge & got some decs up. Ate diner about 1900 then I went out to collect my drugs from the chemist. We really are ready now but we will be minus one person on Christmas day. There will be me Carol & my mum....I can see that we will have a ripping time ....

Snapped this Happy House in King Edward Avenue....it certainly is bright.

Mild day
