Quick Jan update, and a snippet

[avevale_intelligencer]

The toe is going to have to go. This means that at some undetermined point Jan will have to be moved to Bristol. They say it won't be today, though, so I'm heading in.

Janet Hitchman, in her biography of Dorothy L Sayers, Such A Strange Lady, grousing about Lord Peter Wimsey's omnicompetence, suggests that one of his models might have been a character named Adam Adamant, "who was resurrected recently for the television." This made me smile. I leave the reason why as an exercise for the reader. :)

Poor Jan. But I'm glad it's just the toe and not the foot.

Well, quite.

Oh dear.
I hope this won't be too difficult.
Love to you both.

Better a toe than more! Love to you both.

As for the Sayers reference - a sneaky bit of cross fandoming there?

You mean Adam Adamant really WAS the fortieth Doctor? Or should that will be? Or will have been going to be....

Do give her our love and best wishes when you next see Jan, and hugs to you both.

I wish we could make the journey :(

Not what I had hoped for - but probably the lesser evil.
I have my fingers crossed for both of you.
Sending good thoughts and courage.
And a hug.

Our thoughts are with you both.
