The weather was bitterly cold yesterday and the wind was howling, making it even colder. This lone horse had his back to the wind and was trying to make the best of it. There wasn't even a tree for shelter. I have one of it up closer, but I like the desolate feel this scene emits.
On another note, the Owd Timer sent me the following message. He said I could edit it as I saw fit. I decided to leave it in his own words. Get well soon mate.
Thanks for the wishes mate......Sorry about not corresponding....but, this has been one of the worst bouts I have ever encountered!....My whole body is one solid lump of pain...and when the coughing starts....Oh boy!.....I feel like overdosing to end it all...especially when it is beginning to interfere with my heart problems!....I am on strong anti-biotics & steroids..When the coughing kicks in....My heads feels like it is gonna explode!...I shake all over, and Ann (bless her) is at her wit's end trying to do things for me!... She gave me some very powerful pain pills and a couple of sleeping pills last night, to see if I could get some sleep!....I lasted 3 hours!!!.......this is the first since Sunday!!....I have been propped up in my chair with a sleeping bag wrapped around me....If I lie down, the coughing begins with a vengeance.....So, sitting is my best option! I just haven't been ar*ed or bothered to pick up my laptop, apart from glancing a messages etc!...... Today, the coughing 'doesn't seem so bad...and Ann is away to town for some 'extra's to help this!...... Still..............I needed to go on a diet after the New Year.....But I would have preferred it more natural!............(I've lost nearly 2 stone since it started).............
The only thing we can do, is to wish him, from this place, a soon recovery.
Bob, keep strong (as far as possible). We miss you Pal!
Thanks for the update Ron. Thanks too for your fine post Owd Fella.
