You did take your time in answering it and there was not too much news when it did come however I have not much to say myself so must not speak. So you are having a busy time in hospital.

It does not seem very difficult for you to get home I wish it was as easy for me. But although I got the chance again from here I dont think I would go as it is so far & so short a time at home.
