 ap>  Av> Yep at this stage it's looking like about 7-10 days helping out in
 ap>  Av> around 2-3 weeks time. Surgery is booked in now, and I think he will
 ap>  Av> need help with recovery.

 ap> Ah good that you'll be able to go. Not to sound doomy gloomy but, will
 ap> be good to spend the extra time with them while you can.

Yep this is all locked in now, I'll be away around 20 days. My mum is also having something taken off the back of one of her legs which looks like it could be benign or malignant it's a 50/50 thing so will hang for a few more days to support them both during this time. My wife is coming on this trip with me too so it should be a different month coming up.

 ap> it's logical or not. I don't know, just look after yourself. don't sweep
 ap> it under the rug, your work mates are probably the best to talk to but
 ap> if you need someone to read a netmail..

Thanks, this last few weeks have been mostly good and the team I am in have all been working and sharing thoughts and feelings together. So that's been good.

 ap> You too Paul. I'm going to do a release soon of talisman, with some bugs
 ap> squashed. Also have a door game I'd been working on but have been
 ap> distracted. I've got a few helpful testers for the door game but they're
 ap> getting to the point where I stopped adding content... so I suppose I
 ap> should do that, but kind of a bit burnt out after the last spree.

I'll need to set you up again to do the hatching yourself as the node number was made inactive but I am contacting you now to confirm which node number you want ... I think 1/182 would be best.

 ap> Might take the weekend easy a bit. We had antenatal class today, which
 ap> felt like it went on forever, but was useful. part of it was a tour of
 ap> the birthing suite, that brought a few tears as we haven't been there
 ap> since we lost our girls.

:( ... yep roller coaster ride times, I know the feeling at the moment also but for different reasons..

 ap> Been playing LotRO a little bit again (Lord of the rings online) not much
 ap> though as i'm broke and can only play on free mode at present. (Not that
 ap> there's anything wrong with free mode, just things are a bit nicer when
 ap> you buy a subscription)
 ap> well, talk to you later.

My daughter is into some online gaming and feels the same way, nicer when there's some $$ spare but OK if not. I think now she is working she may spend a few $$ on such things :)
