RAMBLES FROM MY CHAIR - my main blog: I'm back

I'm back - in one way

I'm back - in one way. That is. I'm back blogging (briefly) but I'm not back home yet. I leave in a couple of hours on the 7 a.m. ferry and we are stopping tonight in a B & B in Dunblane. I just wanted to let you know I'm feeling human (if tired) for the first time since I let the side down by collapsing on Thursday. (I also wanted to add a little extra thank you to Jo who - with her own current health problems - didn't really come all this way to spend an evening worrying about what her partner's disappearance from the conscious world!)

Perhaps she should just leave me on the Island - after all, it has every facility one could need -

Have a safe trip.

May all the good memories of your time on the island keep you warm and cozy!

Had a good laugh at today's pictures, both the cartoon and the photo of the signboard. I wish you both a safe journey home.

I also really enjoyed your "silly critters" pictures at the Soaring blog last week! :)

When you wrote of collapsing, I though you just fell asleep from exhaustion. I didn't realize that you passed out. I do hope that you'll find that you are well and able, my friend.

Take care of you and I'll be praying for the both of you :)

Do they sell franchises? I think I'll open one of these in downtown Victoria.
I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better after your time-out. So important to have your supportive partner at such a time.

your holiday thank you was so delightful and what a wonderful partner you have! You must be a very special person yourself. We should all be so fortunate! We will miss your wonderful post from the isle and your brother. How wonderful you were able to feel the safe harbor of friendships in a place on earth where there is still peace! and friendships! There needs to be more places like that!

The Cast

This is my main blog insofar as it is the one I try to ensure has at least one entry per day - and usually two. It is also the one which has my Friday My Town Shoot-out on it.

My home is in Pensby on The Wirral in Cheshire, England but at the moment I am on holiday in the Outer Hebrides, staying at my brother's near Stornoway. (Somewhere I have a little map that says I am here and points to Stornoway but I can't find it and am too lazy to make another one). This is the cast of characters who appear regularly:-

Me - sometimes known as CJ or John and otherwise known as Scriptor Senex; Jo (alias Partner-who-loves-tea and also known as Partner-who-hates-being-photographed); Bryony (Food-loving-Daughter); Bryony's husband Mark (Son-in-law-who-cooks); Helen (Daughter-who-takes-photos); Helen's husband Ian (a.k.a. Son-in-law-and-Friend-who-loves-Otters); Richard (Son-who-watches-films);
