31 years

31 years ago today two 17 year-olds got together in a school dance.

They couldn’t have guessed then that 31 years later they would still be together.

And looking back on 31 years of happiness.

Medical matters

Roger — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 22:42:53 +0000

My father was taken in to hospital this evening. He’s 86 and very frail. He’s a diabetic but in the last couple of years the danger has been going hypo rather than hyper (ie his blood sugar level has gone too low). But suddenly his blood sugar level has shot up to a dangerous level so he had to be admitted to hospital. He seems reasonably well in himself so hopefully it won’t be too long before he’s home again.

And on a slightly different note, I have to take the dog to the vet tomorrow to have a growth removed from a very delicate (and private) area. He’ll need to have a general anaesthetic so I’ll have a very groggy dog to deal with tomorrow with a sore private part…

Yesterday evening we went to an Exhibition of GCSE and A Level Art and Textiles at Siân’s school. Siân had work exhibited in the art and textiles section.

She’s a very talented artist and the dress she designed and made is stunning.
Needless to say we were very proud parents.
