Hiya - Chris was improving when I saw him a few days ago. It's a bit premature to think that the medication issue is resolved but it's nice to see him a bit more lively & perky. Sorry Barry, the pictures haven't been inserted yet - hopefully soon (am a tech retard).

We're coming up to a year from the stroke - sheesh what a year! I don't suppose it's the sort of thing you 'celebrate' exactly, but we can be thankful he hasn't had any more strokes & that he can walk & communicate. He's also had a huge amount of support from many people near & far. So thanks to everyone who has helped or supported in any way.

....... so I'm in the mood for a quiz - a free copy of 'A Warm Gun' by The Nothing to the first respondent who can tell me .... (ummm can't be too easy & WIKI-checkable) ..... the name of Chris' favourite female singer.

...... and another copy to whoever can tell me why Chris wore jandals most of the time.

All the best.
