They are real!

Tackled the lawn today - only the second cut as the mower had to be serviced while I was away and L had strimmed most of it so it wasn't too difficult except I am not very fit due to lack of proper exercise!
Sad news that one of our neighbours has just had a horrendous stroke in the supermarket.  She is only 45 with a young family and is not expected to speak again if she survives.  It is a terrible shock.
