It seems I'm a patient now!

A major step forward today, the Bombe stockade fits better together and has the rail ready for Perspex panels and today they arrived! So next week will probably see me holding things steady for Mike the engineer, to fit stuff together. I guess the first one will be difficult but once the initial problems are ironed out the remaining panels will probably go reasonably well. Then once we are happy enough, the rest of the demonstrating team will be invited in to learn new ways of working, Enigma and checking machine will be a ‘no touch’ and the checking machine was put into one of the spare cases and locked; it’s usually available for public to try to find a bit of the puzzle for themselves, sadly no more for the time being.

once the team feel happy and are ok with our new ways of working, (shorter less frequent demos with minimal touch)  then we (as a small team within the computer museum) will be ok for opening in September 8th. 

in other news I’ve been watching the you tube choir song ‘Sing Gently’ and it still makes me well up though I feel incredibly honoured to have been a part of such a truly beautiful ensemble and song. 

Texts from our kids this morning, pre-ordering ‘Sing Gently’ ‘lets get Mum into the charts’!!!! so funny!

I asked in our special fb group whether this could be available as CD/DVD/vinyl as I’m sure lots would love it to be a physical thing, and others are agreeing!

Sadly, the answer came back that at present they are not contemplating doing that. I suspect one of our offspring will 'burn' a copy as a present (I know what they are like!)

Oh dear, got up in the night (as one does!) and has a major attack of vertigo, same this morning. I’ve been sick and have spent the morning in bed. Have a rotten headache now but the world isn’t spinning now. I’ve just taken paracetamol and hope it stays down!

Cyber hugs.....You have my sympathies as I suffer from it too from time to time. Hope you can keep a painkiller down.......last time we had to resort to GP call out and injections.........

Sleep well. Really it is the only solution to readjust everything.

Love  Karen

Thank you Karen/Lacomtekp! 
so far so good but headache is still quite bad.

Struggled downstairs (disabled hubs has already done too much today and carrying things is hard for him with 2 sticks!) took Letrozole, piece of toast and a coffee, (sometimes that seems to add to the painkilling of paracetamol) hopefully they will stay down, now back to bed! 

Big Hugs To Karen/Lacomtekp as I know you get this too.....

Hi moomy,

I hope you are feeling better by now. Sending gentle big hugs to you. xx Kwissy

Awww, Kwissy, thank you, yes I’m beginning to improve at last, the headache is now a dull pain in the background, I managed not to be sick again and the world is ‘almost’ staying steady. I’ve slept lots on and off, which I’m sure has helped too.

im going to get downstairs and grab some dinner as I’m a bit rumbly now!

Phew, I feel MUCH better! I slept for hours, had had some dinner (a light one) and watched a bit of TV back in bed till 10, then it was off and then so was I! Woke once but then slept till just after 8. 

Hope all who are having any worries/treatments/appointments/scans today find they go really well.
