Here is the monastery in the snow, one of us driving a monk to the doctor and a reasonable of shot of an albino deer. There is a huge herd of deer around this area (including quite a few white ones) and we have seen up to 70(!) together

Pain drain

I discovered a new kind of pain the other day when I inadvertently stepped on a nail while perambulating around the vegetable garden. It was buried amongst some hedge prunings. The nail penetrated the feeble sole of my fake crocs, bore through my foot’s leathery outer tissue, and sank itself deep into my instep.

Tooth ache

Poor Nicky with all the tooth ache gubbins.

IT brought to mind an incident a few years ago when I had a similarly agonising ear infection. Fortunately I had worked out that you take Ibuprofen every four hours and in between codydramol/ cocodamol so that you get a pain relief hit every two hours.

On the down side after a night of very little sleep and much grumbling the next morning Sasha got up and promptly collapsed on the floor and had to be taken to casualty – it seems the lack of sleep had effected her more than me. I had to switch from being the poorly patient to concerned partner in an instant. Fortunately the hospital were kind enough to give me some kind of heroine which helped considerably.

In order to avoid such problems I have decided to date a medical student. From now on if any of us have any health problems or questions (no matter how petty or annoying) we can all call Iona at any time of day or night and she will patiently help us. I have already been diagnosed as having a rare fungus on my belly button and an irrelevant lump on my neck… if anyone has a slight sniffle this winter you know who to call.

Happy Tom :-)

This is Iona and these pictures were taken on my birthday. It’s only been a month that we’ve been together but what a thoroughly jolly month it’s been…
