"Let everything on the stage be just as complicated and at the same time just as simple as in life.... People dine, simply dine, and at that moment their happiness is decided or their lives shattered." Anton Chekov

Can't believe my first blip was on 22nd June 2013 in this lovely area of Oxfordshire on our way to holidays. I'd hoped to do a full year but on Monday 3rd March Steve got a fairly shock diagnosis followed by extreme treatment - and I just couldn't summon the enthusiasm for anything creative. I'm now the proud owner of audiobooks "Stop Worrying and Start Living", "Mindfulness", The Power of Now" and hypnosis CDs on "Stress", "Being Happy" and "Getting to Sleep" - plus pills and potions. Steve has managed brilliantly by having a disciplined mind which compartmentalises worries, positive thinking - and he sleeps like a baby!

Back in Oxfordshire again on our way to Plymouth - Santander ferry. On Sunday 20th July 2014 Jody, (our first son), is marrying Aafke in the castle of La Bisbal d'Emporda, Girona. Tonight he drove over from London to visit and to collect parcels. Lynn and Callum, as usual, had enough food to feed an army so we retired to bed late and very full.

Saw great photo of ducks and geese yesterday but they weren't so obliging today - so here's the sign.
