Further apologies for absence

It appears it wasn't a stroke, just an inability to use the old pins properly due to lack of oomph in the old ticker (apparently exacerbated by the most recent bout of cellulitis, which was itself in part the result of lack of cardiac oomph). Quite why that should also cause me to be unable to concentrate for long enough to write my usual drivel will remain a mystery until the trump of doom. But there it is.

Long brisk walks to get the pump working a little harder seem to have had an effect on what I laughably call my brain and next month's appointment with a quack and a balloon on a tube might improve things further.

Recovery is now sufficient to allow for a further piece of twaddle, which will appear shortly.

You are, of course, completely forgiven.

Get well soon, and enjoy the break if you can! All the best.

Glad to hear your still around and getting better.

Best wishes and GWS.

Might I hazard a guess that the intake of claret (I confess I picture you as a Rumpole type) was curtailed in this period?

Naturally, this would dull your normal razor sharp arguments, the steel of the willpower, formerly honed in the heat of battle at the Old Bailey.

I look forward to reading said twaddle, which I will toast with a glass of Bordeaux's finest. Or, at least, not their very worst.

For "twaddle" and "drivel", of course, read "excellent, thoughtful and much-missed commentary". Best wishes and get well soon.

Your "twaddle" is eagerly anticipated here at Barnacle Towers.
Get well soon Mr. FB

Good to have you back and get well soon. Your intelligent twaddle is always welcome.

Take the Pickwickian approach; go for a walk, make notes, blog it for the proceedings of TFB Society.

Hope you feel better soon.

Yaaaaaay! He's (nearly) back!

Hurry up already. This U.S. of A. reader has sorely missed your musings.

Don't shortchange yourself. The best "drivel" and "twaddle" on the internet is found right here.

I hope that this prolonged silence is due to an over-enthusiastic pursuit of my recommended cure.

Get well soon or stop bloody drinking if it's not working...
