The Dynamic Duo (Jean and me) hobbled round yesterday morning doing return visits and managed an hour and a half on various doors. Jean found two of her calls at home and had some good talks. We ended by delivering a small care package - card and chocolates - to a lady who, while recovering from a broken shoulder, fell and broke both her ankles,,,
Jean and I have been through our share of recent health horrors and feel so much for her. Her husband told us she has been in hospital for weeks, though they are hoping to get her home for Christmas. A week in hospital is more than long enough... We are both praying for her.
Life is so scary and uncertain. But it was never meant to be like this. And it will all be put right.
Please do have a look at our latest Awake! magazine:

It was the Detectorists AGM last night - held in a nice pub not too far away. All was beautifully organised as it was last year - 3 course meal for about 30 of us served concurrently and with the minimum of fuss. And we came away with an enormous box of chocolates to take 'oop North, a box of liqueur chocs, a travel towel, and a Tesco cheese assortment (via the Raffle).
It is the sort of raffle where everyone gets prizes.
It was the meeting this morning. And Cousin Sheila rang this evening and we had a long chat and hope we will manage to get together next year.
