A return to blogging

My time in hospital and rehab ended I began establishing myself in new accommodation ( you really do not want to hear that saga ) in early July when I suffered a pulmonary embolism, with clots in both lungs - quite the worst health issue I have ever experienced. So back I went to hospital and rehab and then, after beginning the regular use of blood thinners, came back back to the new flat the other day. Not conducive to blogging, although I have done quite a lot of reading.

I now intend to resume blogging on my established lines. I have not quite decided whether to resume the remainder of the May Marian Pilgrimage, and if so might defer that a while. There are additions I wish to make to the itinerary and I also had intended to include Scottish and Welsh Marian shrines. To do that might be a bit difficult at the moment, so that may be deferred until September to mark Our Lady’s Birthday and the newly promoted feast of Our Lady of Walsingham. Otherwise I shall seek to create a fully revised version of the Pilgrimage for next May.

As I said I have done quite a bit of reading - friends came and lent me a great number of books. I quite often review books on Amazon when I have bought from them, using a nom de  plume, but I thought the blog might take some of my reflections.

Thank you to those who contacted me and sent good wishes, and it is good to be back.
