Ooooh .. nice clean cafe again! Looks great Dragon. :beer:

I thank you Bluedog!

I stopped by in the cafe on saturday, wrote a blurb ........ and didn't realise I'd tried posting past the forum shut-down time!

Ooops - ah well can't be helped

I've been more of a lurker of late on the forums after burning out/crashing a couple of months ago. Life has been full of high-stress factor things coming one after another since turn of the year and my poor ol' body went on shut down. It's been a wake up call and tough lesson in not only adding the "No" word to my vocabulary, but also in using it. I also realised I knew nothing about my illness really and had kind of done the "thanks for the label ... let's get on with life" thing and tried to carry on as usual - I wasn't going to let it get in the way if you see what I mean - how daft????!!!!! :rolleyes:.

That's sorta why I haven't been around either - I needed "me time!" and the forums had to go (well most of them at any rate) - I hope you are feeling better now Bluedog

Still, summer's on it's way, the swifts and swallows are back, the sun is shining ... and I'm quitting smoking, so life's going on, just more sedately from now on. On day 2, so early days yet but am determined to make it for good this time.

Go for it! you may feel a bit carp for a while but in the long run you will feel better

Think I'll sit on the patio with a long brandy and coke to watch the birds with their fleglings.

One pitcher of brandy and coke and a glass, hold on I'll just light the patio heater and the chiminea (sp!), oh and here are some binoculars, just in case!

Nice to see the ol' place up and running again:o

I've overdone it this weekend, and paying for it now - I never learn - so I'll just take me basket out onto the patio and watch the wildlife.
