Gobowen Hospital Walk

I took my mum to Gobowen Orhopedic Hospital for a routine appointment that took 50 minutes. A good opportunity for me to explore the hospital grounds and get some miles in towards my walking goals.

I Am Back

After almost three weeks without a computer I am back, my new laptop arrived yesterday. There was a bit of a drama getting Microsoft Office to download but thanks to Tech Support (who were also flummoxed) we eventually got it sorted.
