I had an ecard from her for my birthday - she's had visitors staying for a while just recently but she didn't say a lot more apart from that except they are ok and keeping busy ..... think its no news is good news with her at the moment, and its just the last 18 months have taken such a lot out of them both that they have sort of "pulled up the draw bridge" as it were ..... she does come and read though so hopefully when she sees this she'll say hello xxxxxxx
