Looking forward, and back ...

I am now starting to come out of the post chemo phase and hopefully this week will get back to my normal self, so it's time to look forward to what I have coming up over the next couple of weeks. Firstly though I need to look back, as 25 years ago today, something happened which changed the rest of my life, for the better. It was a Saturday, and I was stood in the queue at Crawley cinema waiting to see Crocodile Dundee ( that's not a knife, that's a knife) with a certain young lady who is now my wife, Sarah I am so glad and happy that she said yes to go out with me, though I still can't understand why. We have had many ups and downs over the years as all couples do, but we have always stood together. Most of all though we are best friends and we have certainly tried to laugh, even at the worst of times. Here's to our future together, I love you soo much!

Looking forward to the next couple of weeks, before session number 5 of 6, we have a number of things planned. We hope to go to a charity quiz night on Friday, helping raise funds for a friends daughters school trip to India. As you all know I am so keen for everyone to experience everything life has to offer, we are more than happy to help. I hope the tiredness has passed enough for me to go, as we always have fun with our friends at these evenings. The guys take it all seriously, as do the girls, but they seem more focussed on the wine than the quiz! I hope the question who sung Echo Beach comes up, as Sarah now knows who sung it, after insisting she knew the answer last time and getting it wrong, something she has never lived down.

The dog is off to the pamper parlour tomorrow, this is a new one we have not been to before, it will be interesting to see how she comes back. We have had to warn the owner that she does not bite but is extremely licky, she just loves to lick everybody. I also have a meeting with one of my consultants this week, it will be good to see him without any medical urgency for once, it's just a catch up. I am obviously interested in his take on my progress, as so far you all know the news has been positive.

Lastly, I am getting ready for the allotment weekend (3 &4 March), where a number of you have volunteered to help, thank you, more volunteers always welcome, food and drink supplied. We still have some things to buy plus I hope to be able to do little prep work before hand.

Next update in a couple of days,

Hope you are all well, and keep smiling, laughing and loving
