After a two-month hiatus, the monthly message proper has returned to the weary bosom of my very sad little world. Click on the photograph below for a few photos from Dad's 60th birthday clebrations, which took place in Devon on April 7th. Some of the photos don't appear to have upoaded too well, but no matter.

The daily blog, however, carries on  full steam ahead, and is now approaching 60 000 words in length, at least twenty-seven of which are believed to make some kind of sense.
