21st July

Time is going so fast... only 1 day left at home for Jon till I take him back to hospital on Monday.... its been fantastic to have him home though. The kids have really enjoyed spending time with Jon today, he took them to play football and promises me he didn't actually play! The football pitch for kids is right next to the cricket pitch so they also sat and watched our local team play for a few runs and Jon explained the rules..Rob was understanding them but at the end Chris said "so its just like baseball" not sure how Jon replied.

Would like to take a moment to congratulate Chris and Lin (One of the firefighters at Jon's local station) on their wedding today, best wishes to you both for the future,am glad the rain held off for your trip to the church. We went to the evening reception, They had a disco and a live singer, who was very good. It was really nice to spend a night out and forget that things are any different, the only main difference to me was Jon didn't get up for any dancing, but Tina and Holly kept me company on the dance floor.(Leaving Jon and Dean to the drinking).
