How can I work under these conditions?

For many months - about 24 - my office has been the dumping ground for everything for which we could find no home in the house move. It just can't go on and chucking stuff out is something I can easily do while recovering from my op. Even a little at a time. So, this is the 'Before' pic.
I make no promises on timescale before I can post the 'After'.

Great smelling, local lavender

Hitchin Lavender is a really beautiful place and I can't believe I've only just made it out there for the first time. Well worth a visit.

Alternative to putting the kettle on - thanks myWaitrose.

I'm sure the consultant meant filling the kettle and making tea when he said 'No heavy lifting'.

First 'real' 'meal' - delicious!

The most gorgeous scrambled egg for brunch today at Pitcher and Piano. Just perfect. The walk there and back caused me to sleep for three hours this afternoon, but it was worth it.

Two visitors per hospital bed? No, nine for me

My neighbour has nine visitors at her bedside. If she moans that she's tired tonight, I may scream. Just saying.
