After a long absence...

As it's been months and months... here's a little catch up of where we are:

Steve's just back home from a few days convalesence in Salisbury;
I'm back from a week away in north Wales, Manchester and Scotland;
there's a Grand Prix tomorrow morning on't'telly;
I'm seriously contemplating the purchase of a MacBook (and an iPhone when my contract is up in June and the rumoured new handset is available);
we're looking forward to going on holiday in May to Mallorca;
we're looking forward to going to Larmer Tree in June (my first ever festival);
Steve's Dad has had cancer surgery, and (fingers crossed) is fine now;
my parents are coping with a few health problems as stoically as ever;
I recently bought my first edition of Q magazine and have thoroughly enjoyed it (I don't know why I never did before - it's the grown up, twenty-first century equivalent of Smash Hits);

That's it for the moment. As I always say after a long period of blogging abstinence, I will resolve to post updates more frequently. Maybe.
