Structure of resilience

I knew i might find a use for this.

The Wellington bomber was noted for its extremely reliable structure which resisted collapse when attacked.

I am deeply moved by all your msges of support.  All will be addressed, but pse give me  time.

  3. Yay!
    Back on your fingers again!
    So glad you are on the mend.
    Think of you often and imagine you propped up in bed strapped up like a mummy (would be so disappointed if you weren't!)

  4. G'day

    Welcome home!

    Yeah, the aluminium framework was bound with irish linen soaked with aircraft dope meaning that Wellingtons with huge areas of framework blown out returned from sorties when lesser types succumbed!

    No doubt it feels like you have gone a few rounds with The Little General yourself.

    Good to hear your voice

    Cheers
    Julie

  8. Well it's another day and I'm just checking on you S. Keep a stiff upper lip! :) Peter and I missed you when I was in Paris. Maybe next visit you will be up to snuff!! I'm so looking forward to having you along for a photo shoot. I can't imagine anything more fun than all of us together. Maybe we'll gather more??? Hurry and mend.

  9. Cette structure en effet a l'air drôlement solide, et légère, et souple en même temps. Une image de toi une fois "réparé" ? Serais tu devenu un homme "bionique" ?
    Prends ton temps bien entendu, en espérant que tu le consacres à des choses agréables et que tu penses, un peu, de temps en temps, à tes amis virtuels et que tu envisages de poster une nouvelle photo...

  12. C,
    I'm just fussing over you and wondering how it's going. I know it must be soooo very slow and such hard work. Keep at it. We're all hoping for your swift return to us.

    Aussie kindness is often palpable if it's from me an' Letty ...

  14. The photo is a great metaphor for your own resilence! Hope that you continue to mend with little or no pain. Get better!
