    We have a lot of pits near here BB & their legacy aint pretty.
    Sorry about your grandad.

    I'll give my mum a ring in a bit, I keep thinking each time he goes in that this will be his 'time' but he keeps coming back home but he is so poorly these days - glaucoma, mild diabetes, his sight is very poor and the lung problems on top. He was put down the mines in the war when apparently there was literally a 'lottery' of men chosen rather than sending them to fight.

    Sammy - just keep digging, just keep digging ;) :rotfl:

    Beanielou - I am so looking forward to just giving her a big hug.....I think she is the one person who knows me inside and out (you know when you just don't have to speak!)

    just spoken to my mum and apparently my grandad has been filled up with antibiotics, they are pretty sure it is pneumonia again. Hopefully a few days in hospital will help.
