    Absence

    Maybe some of asked them self where is that old guy with long beard...Well, I ended in hospital on one foggy morning and doctor decided I should stay there. Actually, it was serious but now everything is almost OK and normal. And now I'm leaving you again, I must go to seaside to take rest from hospitals and medical tests, to return my strength and weight (10 pounds, or 5kg). I'll be back at the end of August, so until then, my best wishes to everyone.
    Be smart, read a lot and see you in a month!

    I was wondering where you'd gone off too. I would've hoped it was some place more exotic than the hospital but I'm glad you're doing better...sort of. Get some good rest, eat lots of pasta and we'll see you when you get back. And I promise, by the time you get back, I will have finally reread The Posessed...at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    Best wishes to you Baz, you will be well missed!
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Will keep you in mind Baz. Glad to hear you are okay to some extent...the seaside will be beautiful for your mental and physical health.

    Thought maybe you'd gone off somewhere more fun...but glad you're not too ill any more.

    Best wishes,
    Grace

    Oh, Baz, I am sorry for what happened. Indeed, we felt your absence over here and we will continue feeling it till you come back. You told me once about the great seaside you have in your country and I am sure this will help you recover!
    I wish you the best and only the best!

    Hello! I'm back!
    Maybe your good wishes really did speed up my recovery, thanks a lot . I have returned my strength but not the weight which isn't that bad, right? My doc was shocked how can someone read Karamazov's in 4 days? Easy... I had really expected more from Great Expectations but Les Miserables is really astonishing, I'm on 800 page, can't wait to finish it.
    Thanks once again and see you around.

    Hey Baz, I'm just seeing this thread now. Hope the ordeal was not that bad, although it does sound serious. I'm glad to hear you have recovered.
