Anyway, we're a few more days down the line and I think we're both starting to settle in slowly now we sort of know where at least some of the things we need on a daily basis are!
I went to get the stitches taken out of my finger last Friday, but was sent home again as the nurse "didn't have time to clean it up before taking them out!"
Those of you who are squeamish don't look at the above photo! (sorry)Anyway, then made me another appointment for Monday and told me to clean it up before I attended, which I did the stitches are now out.
I've now got a lovely leather finger stall personally made for me, and we were even treated to a bedtime story 
- both by friends of Sue's who were here for the weekend.

It's great to see how people come together at times like this & many hands made light work.

Had our first frost last night, which was welcomed as the garden has been too wet to work in, 
we dug a bean trench, lined it with cardboard, added compost and then put the soil back on top, leaving it to mulch ready for planting later in the year.

Steve has been doing loads of dancing, and another thing we are doing is playing 'tambourelli' -pictures to come - which is quite like badminton except you use round bats that look like tambourines! It's great fun!
More soon...
Hugs from Dave & Steve.
