Welcome to our new Broadband brethren

How great to hear from you both, Julian and Will, that you are on the broadband. Join the gang. You won't know what's hit you. It would be lovely if we could all get on to it, as it will bring us all so much closer together. I get into the habit of clicking on as soon as I get downstairs and leave the Mac on all day (and night, Nic), so anytime you want to say Hi!, then you can. Looking forward to seeing a bunch of photies from ya.
What's this about going shopping, Steve. I think we are going across to Portsmouth on Saturday on the cheap boat (£$ return each) to Gunwharfe Quays. If you have the time off, we could meet there.
Great to hear from you again, Barbara. Shake hands with a fellow prednisolone-er. For the past few months, though, I have been inhaling ipratropium bromide through an aerohaler and it has made a marked difference to my asthma. In fact, I think we have controlled it. I no longer wheeze and cough!!
We have been enjoying ourselves since Le Manoir, having been out to dinner a few times. We are almost booked up for the next week or two - the old tux has taken a bit of a bashing. Mum looks a smasher, also, as now that she is a size 10 we have had to renew the old wardrobe. We are off to the Seaview Sailing Club for a big do on Sunday. French chef and all. We hope you are eating OK now Pete and that Beth is able to get about again. Yes, Will some more dubya, much to your disgust Eh, Ruth? We are so glad that the Audi is behaving itself, and you have been able to take Sally out with you.
Weather has been lovely today and we have been walking along the prom. in Ryde, but the sun is very low and has not got much heat in it. Keeps shining in my eyes when driving. Keep blogging. Dad
