Sorry I’m so late to this. As many of you know, I’ve had rather a bad accident (tripped on a pothole) and suffered several injuries, including breaks to both arms, particularly the left elbow (I’m left handed).I have been warned the recovery will be long and involved, and I’ll probably not recover full movement to my left arm/elbow. Typing is slow and painful (and fogged with meds) so I’ll have to keep this brief. Sorry, but I’m unlikely to be back on a regular basis for a while, but I’ll pop by regularly if only for a read.
As for Den, I agree with many points and hope we can turn it around. I love the idea of offering courses and chat, and also wonder if we can throw out a pay-per-entry comp/s (money prize) to raise funds and attract new people?
sorry, that’s all I can offer for now.

Gosh, so sorry to hear that, Janette. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Take care. x
Oh dear, oh dear. MrsB tripped on an uneven pavement and broke her arm while we were on holiday last year, and I remember all the pain and worry, so I have some idea of what you’re going through, and you have my sympathy. Especially since your case sounds worse, though reading between the lines it sounds like you’re getting better care too. Best wishes for your recovery.
Rubbish news, Janette. I hope you recover as soon as possible. Sending more hugs – gentle ones.
Thank you, all, for your well-wishes. @richardb, sorry to hear about your wife. Care has been hit-and-miss due to an over-stretched NHS, but Mr O has taken a sabbatical from our small business and is taking good care of me. Just a pity I can’t always get to talk to relevant NHS departments when I need to.
Re Den, lets hope we can sort it out and stick together. It was my lifeline too when a certain man turned his back on his faithful followers (less said the better), and I’d hate to lose touch with this lovely, caring core.
Hi Janette, I’m really sorry about your accident. It sounds horrible. I really hope things start to get better soon.
Re the typing, would investing in voice software be helpful? Word has a dictate function which I found unusable (any pause for thinking and it switches off, and it’s also too basic to be any good) but there are proper programs.
You don’t have to answer this post. I’m just putting it up in case it’s useful.
Take care.
