Peter’s Hospital Diary

It was a lovely sunny weekend, not without its events, but I can’t help noticing that there is that little edge to the air that heralds the arrival of autumn.

Those of you that read the comments regularly will know that there are little subtexts going on, and a couple of weeks ago Gillian (a fellow campaigner for broadband) mentined riding on bananas, which prompted comments from Richard (another campaigner) asking for photos!
