To all my GoY friends

I just wanted you all to know that though I’m not on GoY much right now, I haven’t forgotten you my friends. At the moment Ian is quite a poorly boy and we are spending our days to and from the hospital and we are both knicked knacked when we get home. It’ll be a long road to recovery for him, but we all are doing our best and he is getting very good care and treatment and resting well.

This afternoon whilst he was having a sleep, I’ve been tying in the tomatoes and weeding round them, then I found 2 butternut squash plants in between the weeds, and I’ve staked them too, though I’m not really sure what you’re supposed to do with them. The heavens then opened and Lottie and me got absolutely soaked so we dived in the greenhouse where I found an old carton of fish, blood and bonemeal, just right for the tommies on a rainy afternoon….:o)

Oh Janey I'm so sorry to hear about your trouble. It's very stressful for you both now so please take care and don't worry about GoY. I do hope Ian will get well soon with the treatment he's having, and then your lives can get back to normal.
Make the most of your garden as and when you can. It will help you get through the dificulties.
Thinking of you both - Hywel x

I know how hard it is to keep cheerful when you are caring for someone - so will definitely hope very hard that your Ian will soon feel better and make a full recovery. Hope that being in your garden (when the sun shines) will help to lift your spirits . . . and thank you for letting us know. xx
