Re Hank - Thought you might like to know that Hank has been in hospital - supposed to be going home yesterday.
His family has been looking after his garden. He is doing brilliantly for nearly 90!!

From what I have been able to ascertain from his profile he started gardening 15 years ago so at 90 he would be considered a late bloomer....I wish him a speedy recovery.

I knew he was long retired and it was his wife that was the gardener. Lets hope he is back home and on his feet soon. He comes over as a much younger chap on here though. best wishes to him.

Thanks very much people, I knew exactly what my problem was as it’ happens every 4 months or so - I run out of blood and tend to fall down.
They’ve now topped me up along with 3 bottles of iron and was ready to go home when Igot covid.
But should be home very soon in really good shape.

Best wishes and hoping you’re making a good recovery, Hank! Anaemia can be so very draining, you’ll have been extremely exhausted! Now you’ve been replenished with iron, you’ll be back out there gardening and I’m not being ageist, but well done you! I hope I’m still gardening at your wonderful age!
Best wishes from me 😊

Thanks all again for your emails, can’t wait to get home as my son tells we’ve got a bumper crop on my thornless blackberry bush to which I’m very partial.

Best wishes from me too Hank, I had no idea of your age, you certainly come across as a much younger gardener. I have a friend who used to be a farmer and whose just had his 96th birthday. I don't know what they are putting in the water but it seems to be working for you and him! Enjoy the blackberries.

There Hank, see how people care about you! Hope you didn't mind the publicity! How's the Covid? Not what you expect when you go into a nice sterile hospital is it?
Best get that wonderful family to get a net over those blackberries...

Very best wishes, Hank! Hope you'll soon be back in the garden!
