LOL! Actually my mum was grumbling about the fact that she's on antibiotics and therefore can't have any gin....

I'm trying not to panic. It could be something and nothing.

Let's see if we can make you smile tomorrow

You won't be hiding in my suitcase on Wednesday then

Don't want to make light of things but there's not much I can say really 'cept hope you are OK and you mum is comfortable.

Thanks G.

Quite happy to make light of things because enough about this is depressing as it is!

Would love to squeeze into your suitcase on Wednesday but fear I may have to send my body double instead.

Control is the name of the game G. In every aspect of life

I'm fine. Was very busy sorting out my flights etc yesterday (the b*stards added a few more pounds to my flight between the time of checking and the time of booking ). Leaving on Saturday, back on Thursday.

No point worrying about things until I get out there and can see what's going on for myself. Will be speaking to the GP later today to express the concerns of my siblings and myself.

You are doing all you can and that is important.

You know the score really don't you.

Hope it goes OK.

This is true.

Thing is, I always get this little niggle saying 'well, if it's this hard getting over to Jersey from the UK, how am I going to manage from Oz?'.

Don't cross your bridges before you get to them

You will be OK.

That's an order

I agree if you burn your bridges before you cross them you'll never get across.

Seriously though, Bundy, I hope everything goes ok for your Mum. Life goes on, and most things can be put on hold, and you can return to them, but the time you spend with the people you care about is so precious, and limited, that it has to take a priority above everything else.

I would give anything to have spent a bit more time with my Dad before he died, and really to get to know him.

LIfes is too full of regrets such as these.

You're right - at least I have no regrets on that score.

The problem is finding the balance between sensible planning and burnt bridges.
