A note from the administrator.

I have had to close the forum to new members. Registration is shut. I'm sorry for it - but I can no longer vouch for who comes through the door.

You may also find that certain older topics are no longer where you left them. I have, with great reluctance, removed a small number of threads and posts from this forum. I did so at the written request of a firm of solicitors acting for the landowner, who hold that the material touched on matters they would prefer were not aired in public.

I have complied, because I am one man and they are not. I want it set down plainly, here, that I did so under protest, and that I do not accept the grounds. Nothing removed was untrue. Nothing removed was anyone's business to suppress.

But I will not delete this board. What is left here stays, and you may read it for as long as I can keep the lights on. I have locked the doors; I have not burned the house. I have kept copies of everything. I would ask, gently, that those of you who hold anything of your own do the same.

I hope it is alright to put this here, I dont quite know where else. Roy had a turn on Tuesday on the walk, came over grey and couldnt get his breath, and we have been in and out of the hospital since. They think it is his heart and they are pleased with him now, but it has been a frightening few days and I have not slept. The dog doesnt understand where he is. I am sorry to bring gloom into the Snug, I just wanted to tell someone who would understand, and you all feel like friends.

Anne my love you bring it straight here, that is what we are for. You tell Roy the whole down is asking after him and he is not allowed to do a single daft thing. And you, you eat something and sit down, I know your sort, youll be running on tea and worry. We are all thinking of you both .

Thinking of you Anne. Roy struck me as a tough old boot the once we met at the canal day, he will mend. Anything wants running anywhere, I am slow but I am willing.

Holding you both in my thoughts, Anne, in whatever way you find welcome. Hospitals are wretched for the waiting. Be as kind to yourself as you are being to Roy.

I cannot thank you all enough. He is home. Cross as two sticks at being told to rest, which the nurse says is the best sign there is. We read your messages out in the ward and he got quite gruff, which is Roy being touched. The dog has not left his feet since he walked in. Bless you all, you have no idea what it meant.
