Good evening one and all.
Is it really two months since I last posted?
I am afraid that there has been a bit of a crisis here at Barmpot Towers. This has precluded some what where regular activities for a while as things are sorted out.
A word of explanation: this is not to illicit sympathy but to put you in the picture. My wife, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease late last year -she is only in her 50s (somewhat younger than myself) and about three months ago started deteriorating quite a bit which means I have had to spend more time caring. She can now hardly read or write and finds it difficult to recall how to get dressed.
Thus sitting at a keyboard has been precluded for a while. However I am back and while I may not quite achieve the higher rankings in postings I am hoping to contribute as I can.
In fact, I have checked what was being said occasionally but have used some of my free time to watch the odd decent comedy programme including SW rather than post.
One thing I have done is continued to collect some of the funnies which I shall be posting in the appropriate place!
So thank you for your concerns expressed in this thread - not a holiday however!
