I left the Island 13 days ago. I returned on the later ferry last night, had some supper and went to bed just after midnight. I slept well and dreamt that I was growing a hitherto unknown lily. I was up at 6.30 this morning and have spent the day unpacking, washing and ironing and checking the garden and, indeed, spending about three hours working in the garden because it was a reasonably pleasant afternoon.
My cancer review and bone scan both went well and my spell in Ayr Hospital went equally successfully.
Once again I have nothing but praise for the staff at every level who look after those of us who need their services.
The next few days are going to be busy whilst I catch up and the first of my Spring visitors arrives on Friday.
However, in my usually optimistic way, I hope to get some time in Blogland and catch up. What remains of this afternoon will be spent answering letters and writing emails until the time will come for a glass of wine and dinner.
'Bye for now.
PS You might find this Facebook post for a local community-run shop and café on the other side of the Island quite amusing.
