Howdo all.

Can't believe I've been away so long. Life got pretty busy there for a while.

Teddy is 6 months old now, and Evey and I just celebrated our first wedding anniversary. The year has absolutely flown by, with work, health and family all jostling to keep me away from my pencils.

A few months back, I got diagnosed with a degenerative spinal condition. Bit scary for a while there, but the wonders of private medical cover rescued me from a downward spiral and today I'm moving around pretty much pain free.

I never thought there'd be a time when I couldn't hold Teddy. It was a horrible few weeks, and I'm glad as hell to have him and Evey back in my arms.

No lasting damage though. As long as I'm careful, my new components should see me through admirably. I can't ride a pushbike any more, but that's small loss considering the prognosis I was looking at in April. Suffice to say I spent my time in hospital hooked up to a laptop designing seating plans for a recumbent bike.

Anyway. Its given me a new appreciation for life and family, and I'm back in the mix 100%. I'll be catching up on all your galleries as soon as I can.

Cheers for waiting,

Andy.
