All it took today was a phone call from my mum to tell me she's recovering well, not in pain and determined to get home. she sounded bright and 'together' and really positive. so thoughtful of her to call me to put my mind at ease. Bless you mum. See you Sunday. In fact I felt so good that later this evening when I twatted a gate with my bike, tore off a pannier and decked the bugger all I could do was laugh at the absurdity of it all.
