Posting from Glasgow!!!

At last, I have found access to the internet and have a bit of time to update you all. yay!

Douglas

Hes not really been very well at all - with a tummy bug or something making him feel sick, and making him run for the loo on a very frequent basis :(

Its been tough being up here in Glasgow with a friend who can be pretty difficult at times, and so far away from my loving husband. One thing this time away has brought home to me is how harmonious we are as a couple, and how well we get along!!!

I have chatted to D daily, and keep in touch by text. the latest news is that they think he might have Gout, as one of his knee joints has swollen up and hes been generally unwell. they are going to stick him on (yet more) sterioids to see if they can sort this out and also take some of the fluid off his knee!

He is keeping in good spirits, and has been bouyed up by visits from two little brothers - his and mine. I know he would have more family visitors if he were accessible, and Im glad others of you have kept in touch with him by text.

I will be home Monday evening, and straight into his arms!!!

Glasgow

Well, ive done quite a lot of wandering around between helping my friend shelly in the mornings, and fetching her lunches from town, as well as copious amounts of booze (at this point she has 3 bottles left and I dont think she will manage to drink them all before we go)

Glasgow, from the little Ive seen is a beautiful city, and apart from one day of rain, the weather has been lovely.

Yesterday there was a major match between Glasgow and Italy. In my City, when there is a match on, there is a heavy police presence way before the match, but in the town centre I dont think I saw one cop.. Many of the tammy and fake ginger hair topped fans were very drunk at about 5 when the match started, but no sign of violence whatsoever, which was great.

Well.. time to sign off now.. look forward to being home and seeing my parents, who are moving up to our City tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey there - so glad to catch up with your & D's news. Was feeling pretty bad about not texting D on Saturday as promised. (Bit too much to drink) You have both been in my thoughts a lot lately and hope the rumour of a trip to Scotland next year becomes a reality. Certainly would expect you guys to stay here if you don't mind the inflatable for a bed!!??
Lots of love from little sis & co x
