Hi folks. Unfortunately my weekend of cottage-dwelling relaxation came to an abrupt end when I had an undesired canoe-tipping/cutting episode. I am okay, but it looks like I will be in hospital until the end of the week, while they look after an infected wound. Hopefully I'll be in tip-top shape ASAP. In the meantime browse the side bar and listen to good music! I'll get my sister to post another updated when there is more news. (The doctors do think I will be okay, but the antibiotics need a few days) Posted by Sean at August 3, 2004 9:26 PMComments
