So I hear today 3 people have been arrested in Italy for deliberately blocking the cable car emergency brake mechanism. Apparently everyone that used it over the last few weeks had been ,unbeknown to them,  playing Russian roulette. That poor boy who survived. His mental scars will far outlast the physical ones I would imagine. Knowing his father probably saved his life will hopefully be a comfort to him in the years to come.

Been a lovely day here , met sister in law and niece for a dog walk as they are up staying in their caravan. 

Did manage to get a few domestic things done before a quick lunch then off to bowls . Is great to get a catch up and feel a bit more normal again.

Easy tea and put my weary ankles up on the sofa ...
