Our lawn is also growing fast and looking good, Sir Bob, we did a lot of treatment, spiking, feeding and weeding.....we have a heavy clay soil so every few years we use the spiker which brings out plugs of soil, it's hard going and takes most of the day, but it does benefit the lawn, we brush in lawn stuff afterwards, but often it leaves a certain amount of 'hole' left, somehow it works and that year the lawn looks terrific!
Glad you are doing better with food, though it sounds as if your choice at the pub gave you some overnight trouble!
carry on being you, love and hugs to you and the family!

Hi Bob,
Sending you all the luck in the world for results tomorrow.
Glad to hear your visit went well at Kate's new school, and that they have a good support system in place for September.
Everything is crossed for you love.
These are for little Kate:
And these are for dear Linda:
Many hugs to you all, will be thinking of you.
Love Maryxxxxxx
Thanks Mary and Helen for your replies.
A fair day today although I have been really tired for most of it. I awoke at about eight this morning and im so tired I cannot really remember what I have done all day, possibly because I havnt really done anything. Oh I remember I accompanied Linda to the Gym where she did nearly half an hour on the treadmill and another half an hour on some other bit of kit. It wore me out just watching her. I skipped breakfast but did manage a bit of lunch. I have spent the afternoon asleep and did not awake till Kate's friends mum came round to pick up her daughter. Poor old Kate, scooting around my study looking for something or other, came across an envelope containing envelopes, to be opened after my death. That understandably spooked her a bit but she seems to have recovered well. Luckily she did not undo them or look in to it further. We are now sitting quietly having just managed a bit of tea. Tomorrow morning Kate is going to another friends house to go in to school with them, we will be on our way to London quite early. I dare not think what tomorrows scan results, will be like, I am completely open minded about them. As always, im always hopeful and as confident as I can be but its hard to ignore the facts when Im sleeping such a lot, feeling cold and loosing weight. I have been a bit better this last week though so hope its a move in the right direction. we will see.
Keeping everything crossed for tomorrow, Bob, Linda and Kate xx
Just to let you know my thoughts are with you Bob, got everything crossed.

Dear Bob,
Got everything crossed for tommorow, thinking of you all.
Love Quill xxx
I wish you luck Bob. It's hard waiting. That's what my hubby and I are doing at the moment. Our appointment is friday. this will be when he finds out whether his has spread, and what they will do. We only got our diagnosis at the beginning of March, and he had his kidney out 6 weeks later. I've been looking at your blog and found it touching, funny and so helpful. What we are thinking and feeling is normal! Good Luck and Thank You.
Will be thinking of you tomorrow Bob xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
