Saw ‘Tom’s Midnight Garden’ at the theatre last night…was my favourite children’s book, even though I was probably about 25 when I read it….made me realize why I am so obsessed with clocks, ghosts, time and angels…..the author has a lot to answer for!
Me too Moehat! Have you read The Valley of Secrets by Charmaine Hussey? I think you’d like that.

What a super AngloGerman you are! Thanks Darren. Regensdorf is a suburb of Zürich and unfortunately the patient is in the UK. But it could be an idea to get him out here!!!! Zome would approve!
Much appreciated though and will keep this info to hand in case he flys in and we head to Munich:DThanks Gamble (I think
) It’s an injury he got while diving (deep sea stuff) and it affects his triceps so he can’t climb properly anymore.
I have emailed a Dr MIchael Turner so hope to hear back from him later on.
one has to finish ones course so one can speak Swiss-German like a native
Oooh, are you sure you want to do that? Spoken SchwitzerTutsch is one of the worst affronts to the ears this side of Bavarian!
(Mind, I’m from a family of Hessians, so I would say that.

My brains exploding into tiny pieces GC with all these verbs and stuff and then the Schwiezers talking to me in a different language again
We got stuck in to the Modalverbs last week this week it’s the Dativs turn! Yayyyyyyyyy
‘nothing sensible or logical works’ Never has a truer word been spoken (or in this case typed )
Thx LD – I think may follow that and hey what the heck see what happens! Well of course not quite just yet one has to finish ones course so one can speak Swiss-German like a native (or Nativ if those verbs want to jump in again )
