Val makes it back home















Great news. Val released at 10.00 hrs today (give or take 20 minutes). We headed home for a cuppa then we went with Al into town to get Val's glasses fixed after her arguement with the floor last week.

She is much better, and as every picture tells a story look at the photo's. The background is the welcome back banner that Al spent four days producing!
Even Holly is happier that the "pack" is back up to strength.

Val's sister Silv came over and showed Val how to cook a mean Bolognaise and Bread pudding. So guess what we had for tea tonight. I reckon I picked up the wrong Val as the old one never set foot in the kitchen unless it was to make a cup of tea or have a fag!! She might enter the Podga HR culinary wars at this rate!!
Just in case you haven't noticed, this is the third posting in two days. Go back a couple for HR Vs the Swan and the reason Leon has gone silent!!

Suffolk Sojourn 37/137.

Excellent! Val's back at 122 - and judging by the photo's - is looking really good on hospital food (and maybe my 'Red Cross Parcel')!

Good news and backed up with an inspired banner created by Alice - Nice one for Gran'Ma Kiddo!

You'll soon have her back up the ladder to finish the project eh Paulie!!

Sorry Val couldn't get thru' when she rang. I'm still steamdriven with an antiquated laptop and not on Broadband. Consequently, when I check for emails, my Northern Rock share prices and then your blog (plus see what Bear is up to) - on Dial up 'Tesco Pay as you go' at 1p a minute between 1815 and 1900 - no one else can get thru' to us. Frustrating for In/Out Laws, Val and any other hangers-on inviting themselves over for a gastronomic weekend tour of Suffolk!

Anyway - Pilgrims take 3 points at Southhampton - thus back up to 2 points behind Tractor Boys again. The weekend looms again. No comms from Leon, excuses are not even in the air. Maybe it was the tea Paulie.

Yo HR - read the blog! It was a 21crew Bil and I were supporting in the DW. I was their PJI at Chelsea from 94 to 96. 22 (the true hooligans) were always too busy to commit themselves to train and compete!

Finally - good research on the Oval in 72 Paulie. The other member of our party of wine swilling reprobates was of course -Spike.

Glad Val remembered exactly when I stumbled into your lives, (unforgettable eh!)- Thanks, and God Bless Emmy - his laugh is still vivid in my mind at your leaving party as he saw my broken teeth (+ wine bottle, straw etc).

Blue Skies and lodsalove to you all, now the house is busy again.
