No, I haven’t gone into hiding. Since getting back from London on Monday evening, I’ve been suffering from a bad back and a nasty cold, the result of which is that I’ve been off work much of this week and not blogging. I have learnt that Veno’s is great for chesty coughs and I recommend it.

My phone has been sent off the Nokia for repair. I was told to expect it back in the middle of next week “or they may replace it if they can’t fix it.” I can’t say I like the use of the word “may”.
