Thankyou everyone for your kind thoughts. Much appreciated.
On a different note, while waiting in my sweaty pit for the young lady who makes sure I get up and downstairs safely I pondered. I am writing a short book abou my illness and experience. It will be published near Christmas via Lulu (see www.lulu.com if you've got the time. It will be entitled 'Whose mind  is it anyway' I got to thinking about other books that could be writen  by forum members and here are a few.Feel free to ad some of your own

We met in the Forum    -  Scunner.
home,home, on a range  -  Ahmet
Hair today, Gone tomorrow  -Scunner
Life's a Beach              - Java coffee:P

Abridge too far              -   ???
Life as a Turkish Realtor and other horror Stories ?????:(

Bye for now.

Unfortunately I had a bit of a 'turn' on Sunday which warranted a 999 dash back to Nottingham Queen's. All indications were I'd had a tia (aka mini-stroke) but it now seems (pending further investigations that it might've been caused by me brushing my teeth too vigorously and causing a hissee fit in my facial nerve. Any way up it's put the mocccas on flying so trip to cyprus now officially off and tickets on Ebay later today. What a bum*er!! ;)
