Some happier personal notes : Been stuck for weeks waiting for a builder to fix an arch over stairs, relaying and brick ties. Heard he is coming next week so the painting plastering can finally finish. then touch ups. I reckon 2 weeks and we will be finally done after a year of restoration.. Perhaps i can start to look at travel myself.Maybe Canada? Was worried international travel would be a thing of the past but treatment for a medical condition has been quite successful. Cant be cured but can be managed to some extent. Most people my age ,with my genetic condition, are on dialysis or have had transplant . I am an anomaly rather than a mild case. So thats a blessing.
