15/4/2011 Finally made it back for a new update. Sadly have been very remiss with that so far. Back in the pool now and loving it. Of course the hip doesn't like it too much but I am trying to exercise more to help that little glitch. Arthritis is a real pain at times. My what a sad start to this year we are having. So many disasters and right on our doorstep too. Luckily my family in Christchurch are all safe if somewhat shaken and broken. My grand-daughter Hazel calls them Wobblies! During the last earthquake she was asleep and was woken by her mother to sit under the door frame where her baby brother was as well........ comment: would you just look at the mess in my room, the wobbly has messed it all up. Hazel is only just 3 and has no worries normally about the state of her room. Kids eh? they make you laugh. I have since got a laptop and keep in touch with Skype every weekend we can. Get very worried when we don't hear from them now. Well better get on with some more catch ups and wish you all a very happy and safe Easter.
