The joys of Gardening, Administration, Angus, Sunderland and most importantly Vicky

Another week and Ron is away again. Monday and Tuesday he was engaged in consultancy work in Angus, helping people find a way forward with their day services, on the second day they did an organisational PATH which everybody enjoyed doing, Ron is no artist so one of the staff did all the drawing

Tomorrow he is in Sunderland for his annual lecture at the university for the Psychosocial –Intervention course. He always likes visiting the north east as he lived there for a while. It also gives him a chance to catch up with our daughter Vicky who is in her third year of mental health nurse training in Middlesbrough.

Meanwhile I am continuing making our home liveable in. I started on the garden this week as we have had a series of sunny days, there is nothing like getting your hands really dirty and using muscles that have forgotten how to work.

I have also taken most of the administration of working to recovery back from Sonja now. We have been so busy training I hardly had time to even keep an eye on the admin so I am having to relearn most things. So bear with me over next couple of weeks if your orders are late.

You may have noticed the website is slowly changing, this is because we are now using Radish to keep our site up to date which means we are now working closely again with our old friend Paul Baker, there will be more changes in the next few weeks.

Well must go and pick up Rory from the youth club, the kids have really settled into island life quickly, probably because they are so used to travelling with us and adapting to new situations and Frankie has started using her first Gaelic phrases, with all the confidence an ebullient 5 year old has ...
