Too bad he still seems confused at times but that is the Parkinsons alas.

How long ago was he diagnosed?  Limpy, thankfully, doesn't yet show anything like this.

I'm still doing puzzles on Jigsaw Planet and I've got to share the one I've just completed:

This beauty belongs to All Nippon Airways and it is one of three boasting this stunning livery - the others are in different colours.

It also reminded me of that brilliant advert with the skating tortoise!

It's one of the most recently added pictures.

CLARE - Diagnosed 5 years ago but, looking back, we suspect he had it long before. He is 78.

Been feeling unwell on-and-off again - now got a doc appt for next week. Had the repeat blood test this Tuesday.

Day out Wednesday - tried a different place for lunch (C***) on the way to garden centre and butcher/deli. Succssfully found a present for 4 year-old GGS - "Band in a box" - several percussion instruments. Bought exra blue pots for patio - one needed, but on special offer so invested in four.

At home today, then haircuts tomorrow.

Pleased AQ's OH is eating now - hope there may still be some improvement.

ROSY - hope you continue to be happy with the move.

RUSTY - have a great trip.

Hi all. Another 3 pics of son's travels down the West coast of California.   Three for Annette.  Bird obs.  I think one is a pelican, one possibly a woodpecker but the third one not sure - bright blue

in colour.

Limpy was also diagnosed in 2017 but we think he'd had it for less than a year before he was diagnosed. Looking at other people's stories I must say we've been very lucky to get a diagnosis that quickly. Limpy was 68 a few months ago.

Last two - one of the seals along the coast. Son also videoed a clip of them. Also a taste of the scenery. Annette, you do live in a lovely part of California.

Clare - love the jigsaw and the livery of that plane.

AQ - thinking of you and hope OH improves a little in his eating.

OG - sorry to learn you are feeling unwell, do hope they can get to the bottom of it for you. Glad to hear you managed
to get out for lunch..

Although not a lot happening down here I am being kept cheerful by my son posting me pics of his travels in California.
Those lovely blue skies and the scenery looks great.

Thought you'd like to see that we still have colour in the garden - the roses refuse to give up yet.
