part of RUH Heroes art auction in RUH 


After nearly a year of house arrest (shielding) I was looking forward to being able to go out , but the warnings are almost the same as before.
I have been watching the events taking place in Myamar, these protesters are brave and a half, it’s so wrong that we have so many countries that support the military dictators, it does show which countries are of the same view as them.
I have alway been of the opinion that we should choose our friends wiser.

These  are three of my latest pictures. I painted these during this lockdown. I am working on a couple more at the moment but I am having problems with my eyes,I’m waiting for a cataract op, anyhow I thought I’d finished them, but Jane pointed out that  I’d missed bits so I used a magnifier to paint in missed bits.
Had premed  over the phone so it’s getting closer.

                                                               I hope you are coping with lockdown, we are but are we looking forward to  small bit of normality, I suppose we all have things we really miss, family  eaten out and I’m told shopping . During the lockdowns I have had my monthly infusions as usual thanks to the staff at Frome hospital ,during the first lockdown I had a line put in at the RUH and then had 14 days of attending Frome hospital twice day a for antibiotics .I also had a few lumps removed in th RUH. I have always been a fan of the NHS, my treatment has been superb even during the pandemic.
As this is the first time I have used blogger in a long time it’s taken me a long time to do this as I shave had to learn how to use it. Love to you all,Philip xxxxx

I've been meaning to write for a while now, I was surprised to see how long it has been since I last wrote.
I have had a bad year health wise, I have deteriorated considerably this year, started with the flu so January went, a couple of bad chest infections all took there toll, as a consequence I am very limited as to what I can do.
One of the things I've had to do is stop painting, so my studio is now a dining room.
The NHS has been superb as has Jane and Debbie. I have been referred to Dorothy House as I hear they are good at helping deal with my sort of problems.

                    I am disappointed that their is not more coverage of the Paralympics,
,                                        why is there no coverage on the BBC?

Had a wonderful week in West Wales, spectacular scenery, good food and plenty of rest and the weather was amazing, Thanks to Penlan cottages for superb accommodation. The only drawback was the week flew by.
