Is that a tour of your new house that we went on with you? Love the artwork. I’ve just turned the decade a decade ahead of you, so it’s downhill from here! 🤪

Yes, that'll be the new Baronial mansion :) To be honest, I had no idea I was doing a tour, I just started walking around while I was chatting :)

I don't like to think of it as downhill, more that I've plateaued :)

Spot on Andy, like Caroline i can add on a decade but we’ve not lived with it as long as you. Im determined im not going downhill (secretly i know i am) . But like you say crack on with it.

I wonder if i ought to wear shorts on my head? Cant look any worse than a normal hat Hmmm? Maybe not, a step too far.

Its good to know im not the only one that loses their words. I stop mid conversation to give my brain time to catch up, friends and family understand this now but its awkward if im with people that dont know me well.

Good video as always.

Hi Janet, a decade ahead but twice as fit!!

Talking of which, preparations have begun for Walk 2 on Aug 3rd. You still up for being the Manchester director?

I dont know what that will entail. I’ll have to find a route wont i?

Well as you know, it's walk your own marathon, so the distance is irrelevant really. But yes, a nice easy route is the way to go. Do you think you can get your specialist on side as we discussed? Lincoln hospital is getting involved this year, so any interest countrywide will be invaluable...

I’ll email his secretary and see where he stands, he originally wanted me to try and set up a walk for the rehab unit and theres a country walk near there thats round Hollingwoeth Lake , but thats only a 2 and a half mile walk. Let me cogitate on it and see what ican come up with.

Sounds like a plan...

Have to say Andy that struggling to find essential words in every sentence has sent my vocab standards plummeting to where frequent swearwords are now the norm.

It's OK online as no one's waiting around for me to string a few words together, so I can cogitate for as long as it takes. I prefer online conversations as it's a relief from the frustration of having words put in my mouth or my sentences finished for me.

Haven't tried pants on head though ; might give it a go...…....🤔x

Pants on head I can thoroughly recommend! You really must try it :D

Oh, and swearing is an absolute must!

On a brighter note mate at least you can come down stairs while filming yourself, many here would just love that mobility, be thankful.

BaronC in reply to fredikins

I'm VERY thankful, every single day of my life. Hence putting a pair of shorts on my head and trying to have a laugh

Very true Fredikins.

Mr Baron it strikes me that you have an overwhelming fixation with your brain injury.

I think a lot of us do because it’s so alien but if we can just get on with life the best we can because we do still have a life , good luck everyone xxx

Love the headgear, aka Lawrence of Arabia! You've done well and should feel proud abt the move and putting together a vid. Its been a tough time hasn't it (?), and the month of Jan is a beast to get through!! Have to say, although today's message relates to a serious matter, you always come across as hilarious. Maybe its the pants on head and the mad cow prints! Still laughing.....

Pleased I gave you reason to smile! It's been a tricky time, but I think I'm through the worst of it now! Hope you're wet best wishes!
