Weekend away, 1st in a long time.
Silhouette of Bamburgh castle against an orange sunset. Dawn over Seahouses harbour. Low sunlight illuminates bands of cloud from below. Large expanse of sandy beach, Bamburgh castle on the skyline. Holy Island, Lindisfarne, harbour viewed from the path to the castle. A stony, shingle beach in the foreground. The harbour & bay lies beyond.

Radiotherapy finished, now just the wait to find out if it was successful.
Picture of me in the corridor at the hospital, mask in hand, ringing the bell at the end of a 6 week course of radiotherapy.

I'm sitting in a cafe in paradise
The waitresses all ask me for my price
I laugh and say I'm leaving
That this is only dreaming
So hold me while I'm screaming

Cancer gone.
Here's hoping it doesn't return, while I get on with recovering from the treatment.
Side view of my head showing bruising around neck & jaw. Hollow in temple from graft harvest site, stapled incision from ear to forehead & drain tube.
