Two bits of good news for us!
Orynthia's dad has had a couple of operations this week and the surgeon told Orynthia that he has an 80% of walking again. It will take several months, but it is so nice to see some light at the end of the tunnel at last. It was Orynthia's mums birthday yesterday, so along with Orynthia's brother Ashton we took her out to Sawadee's our favourite local Asian restaurant. It was really nice to see Orynthia's mum smiling and laughing again. The food was good, as always.

The other good news is that we have booked a lovely looking apartment in Paris. Petunia and Simon will be joining us, for what should be a lovely trip to celebrate Orynthia's birthday. We sure do need a holiday!!
