sorry i've been away

Post: # 137110Post old tree man »

Hi all
Been away for a bit as Jane has been very poorly, we both wish all a belated season greetings and a really safe and happy new year.
Jane has been in and out of hospital for months now with a heart condition and seriously high blood pressure but the cold weather affects her badly.
i do apologise for not posting over the last couple of months, but if truth be known i've probably been feeling sorry for myself it has been hard work looking after somone with your own injuries,
anyway on the plus side my friends helped me by erecting a 8ft greenhouse for me so seed sowing can start early i have already got my seed onions on the go, will talk to you soon
bless you all
Russ & Jane :flower:
Respect to all, be kind to all and you shall reap what you sow.

Hi Russ

Good to see you back. Best wishes to you and to Jane.

I only thought the other day that I hadn't seen any of your posts for a while and meant to look you up to see if you'd been posting on threads I hadn't read. Didn't get round to it, though, what with one thing and another.

Glad you're back. Here's a little sunshine for your new greenhouse :sunny:

Sorry to hear about Old Tree Lady, my best wishes for the new year to you and your family.

I was also thinking about you the other day, perhaps there was some cosmic movement that made us all think of you

Here's a wee bunch of flowers for the wife....

Best wishes to you both and I hope that Old Tree Lady will get better soon. How is your arm? I guess that must be better by now.
