Yes, I am. It was good. I am at the moment suffering from jet lag and some kind of respiratory virus, but that too will pass.

@Jolanta How's the garden?

@FrayedBear It is fine. I don't have much of a garden anymore as I have downsized and now live in a town house.

@Jolanta I've just started preparing to grow some stuff in old 2 litre milk bottles & grapefruit juice bottles on the window sill. . . Things like spring onions, chilli, parsley, coriander, lettuce.
Who knows I may end up with hydroponic towers all over the unit! Though I'm thinking of ceasing my peripatetic away from home wanderings caring for others animals this was seen as a way of creating plant survival through my absent periods.

Some people do, unfortunately.
