Hamish is now up and walking unaided. He has continued to improve to the point that, other than low energy and having to move carefully, he is pretty much himself. I'm to collect him from the hospital and deliver him to the convalescent home (Crumby Towers, in his words) tomorrow morning.

Now that we've reached this point, I'm proposing to slow down on the reports, as much to give you all a rest as anything.

On my own behalf, I'd like to express my thanks and gratitude for all the messages of support and good wishes, no only for Hamish, but also to myself.

Thank you very much indeed. It really does make a difference.

Jim
