Home again after some fixing up.

The surgery went well, but was a bit more complicated than expected. Six hours, and change on the table. Waking up afterwards was a long, and slow, process. Remember that I dreamt about this game then. :lol:

Am now recovering faster than I ever could have expected.

Thank you all for the well wishes.

Started slowly on our impulse.

The Bordeaux conference general conference has hastily turned into a pocket that can be hard to defend. Much depends on how the Vichy government will react.
