Monday morning has arrived and I'm still in hospital. The good news is that I'm in inpatient rehab so that's the final step before I moved home.
I'm at physio at the moment, it's twice a day in the gym (9-12pm & 1-3pm)

I had day leave on Saturday so I could buy a new seat cushion for the wheelchair. It cost over $300 and that was at the cheap end of the scale. Bring out was brilliant even if we did have have a curfew. Getting out for a meal was great.

Good news, glad to hear you're on the mend.

That's so good to hear! I've been wondering how you were. Well done for hanging on, have you counted the number of nights you've been there? Good luck with your rehab. Xx

Exotic holiday location their Reg, I once had a week in Euston. Very busy, but the swimming pools were great and the bars sell as much McEwans Export as I could drink.
I used to do 'overnights' at Derby train station quite frequently after going to gigs at 'The Flowerpot', got it down to a fine art using a rucksac with my little camping stove and a bottle of Single Malt. I got approached by a couple of transport police once who inquired what I was doing (I suppose I did look like a 'down and out') but I explained and they went away quite happily when I told them I was waiting for the train at 4;45am and yes I did have a ticket
(the London - Sheffield 'Midland Mainline' Trains parked up overnight in Derby for refuelling and cleaning)

As they walked away one of them commented on how well prepared I was. :laugh: :becool:

The newest way to get between Leicester, Derby and Nottingham after the rail has shut down is to take the airport shuttle bus, apparently it's packed, and nobody is taking a flight ^_^

It is a lovely bright sunny morning out there.

We had a BBQ yesterday and whilst the grown ups were chatting away I took the grand kiddy winks out the front on the green to play with the gliders that I bought them at the model engineering exhibition. Expanded polystyrene type F22 Raptor for those interested.
We had lots of fun, the planes flew well, although the noses broke off after a while and had to be glued and selotape back on. The youngest my grand daughter had to make do with a simple glider as she is only 4.

When we were looking after my grandson I had great fun teaching him to fly simple gliders & paper planes. Still got some of the Revell ones but there's two of them around these days & the garden isn't big enough.
