    My very best wishes to you and CD, I am another who selfishly will miss your diary, you write so well and it has been a pleasure and a privilege to share in your life at The Nest and the exploits of your Divos.

    You have been through so much in recent years, but you have always found time to share your knowledge and offer support to so many people here. Many thanks to introducing me to GP too, although I have to say that I loathe the taste and can only take it as little frozen tablets, it has made a world of different to my miserable and restricting foot pain, and I hope that perhaps with some tweaking of co-factors and dosage that in time my hands will benefit too. Miss border collie hurt her foot recently and I am so pleased that she will take it with her organic yogurt (she is far too fussy with most new tastes normally)

    Take care dear lady, I look forward to seeing you pop up on other's diaries. Little licks from Miss BC to CD.

    Dearest Robin

    So many eloquent words already said by your friends on here ... I echo them.

    We all understand, and wish you well, while knowing we will miss your updates all the same.

    Best wishes

    I write this with tears in my eyes. I am so sorry I haven't replied before now. Your support and keeping up with you has meant so much over a difficult time.

    Much love to you and CD x

    Hi Robin
    Whilst I understand your reasoning, I can't help feeling sad you won't be writing in here again. But that is me being selfish, and you know what is best for you. It will still be lovely to see you around the threads. Keep well and good luck with 2016

    Dear Robin
    Well, I change electronic device and look what I find when I eventually manage to get username and password to agree to work together. I was missing you and your updates but there's been an inkling for a while that you need to move on. I do hope you'll write somewhere else,even if just for you - tales for the Divos maybe? Enjoy a deliberately wild garden for a while? With enough clear paths for dear CD of course. The wild has a way of taking over, doesn't it!
    As for camper van adventures that sounds a grand plan. I'd out myself if I said where the girls have landed for the next little while but I managed to get out to visit and it is blissfully restful and good for the soul. Ironically they are discovering the joys of growing things to eat. There will be places like that for you to find on your travels I'm sure. Safe travels- ear rubs CD, and tasty bits of chicken x

    Robin - lots of us have said this before but you really should write a book. Honestly -not just saying it.
