Re: What Are You Doing Now?
Charmed by your lovely picture on the staircase, Julie, I saw a lot of the several flights, running up and down to the 2nd floor as the lift was usually like the field hospital at Scutari ! Embarrassingly we couldn't get the camera working, so just happy memories rather than photos to bring away... How nice you were able to mark your daughter's Masters achievement there, certainly the perfect place for a celebration. All a happy memory for us now, staying with cousins at Bathampton making our way westwards!, though I felt a tug at parting leaving our lovely sitting room with its pretty fireplace and flower arrangements, and those marvellous heated mosaic loungers in the pool zone!

We had a great time, as you say there is plenty to do and see in the hotel and we spent time in the pool and spa and sauna.

Re: What Are You Doing Now?
I'm resting from a moderate Migraine having woken up yesterday with it so after checking my emails and this awesome sites posts, I'll switch off I think.

Migraines are awful. Don't blame you switching off your computer. Give your eyes a rest.

Re: What Are You Doing Now?
Hope you feel better soon. I know too well how migraines can be. I get the works - pins and needles, blind spots, the aura,then the headache - and often the next day I'm still feeling washed out. Hope you feel better as the day progresses.

Hope you get better soon Jo. I know by experience that migraines are awful, but soon you'll be feeling better...
I'm so sorry for not having been online these last few days but I'm very busy preparing for my music practical which is tomorrow, and I really don't get that much time go on the internet....
I'm sooo nervous..
