This corner of the farmyard I like most: As well as any bloom upon a flower I like the dust on the nettles, never lost Except to prove the sweetness of a shower. ~ Edward Thomas ~ Every time we venture out to pick nettles, Sime always goes on about this poem!

Glad everything is working out well. Things have been hectic here and I still haven't had a holiday! Will get there in the end. Glad the B& B working it sounds as though you have hit your forte. You are both so sociable in any event so I am not surprised but I am So pleased for you both. Kay I have a friend who is suffering with the underactive thyroid problem and I mentioned that you were dealing with it in your inimitable way and that you were using a herbal product rather than the synthetically produced thyroxine. Would you mind emailing me the details so I can pass the information on to her please so that she like you can make an informed decision.
Hope you have that log burner going I know I would if I was down there. One day you may well find me on your doorstep - you never know!
Take care
Love to you both
