    Oh Armandii I am so sad to read this and send all my best wishes to you. We loved meeting you at Shineys and remember the farm B and B we stayed in with you too. I am glad we know what is happening as I was wondering where you were too.
    Health is the most important thing and you need to concentrate on that for the moment. Take care.

      I know we have had chats in the office and by PM, but I will say it again here - to say I am gutted is a major understatement. You have been the finest friend anyone could choose to meet, and you will never really know just how much your support, kindness and friendship has meant to me over the years.

      We will keep the home fires burning here at GC, awaiting your return (and a glass of something amber and tasty too!), and we will look forward to celebrating with you once you are in better health. I love you fella, and you know it!

        @ARMANDII , so sorry to hear that you will be taking a break for a while.

        Hoping and praying that you will be well, and back in the healing arms of Mother Nature soon...

          Returned my great friend, in spades, and it's been a real honour to know you. It might be a year, or years, before I can return to what I feel is one of my homes, but keep an eye out for me as you know what they say about a bad penny!!! I know GC will go on and on with you guarding it, its essence and what it is all about, and I will think of you when I need some mental support to get me through.:love30:

              We (Mrs Strongy too) are so sad to know that you have been in hospital and have to go back again. Our thoughts are with you and hope we can meet again at Shiney's sometime and see you back here soon.:grphg:

                  I hope all goes well Armandii, I know you've had your troubles lately but I sincerely hope you can get through everything life throws at you.

                  You've been a good friend to me and you will be very sorely missed.

                  Take care and hope to see you around again sooner rather than later.

                      My dear dear friend , I am so saddened to find this farewell tonight. You will be forever in my heart and I shall not forget the good times we've had in Shineyland.
                      Take great care of yourself and come back to us when you are able again,
                      Namaste,

                        Dear @ARMANDII
                        I am sad to be reading that your body is being a traitor to you and hope the hospital will whip some order back into your gardening /star gazing existence. You are a gentleman. If the Knights Templar still held conference, I know you would be sitting somewhere at the round.

                        I hope that your family will be able to mind your furry friends and be allowed to bring them for visits.

                        I'm sending my health through data stream to you. I'm always willing to share my physical fortune with you and anyone else on this lovely forum. Strength is a medium of moment and I shall be vigil in my thoughts and translating them to continuous, though virtual, "laying on of the hands".

                        I hope you can feel my hug and heartfelt hope for a steady recovery.

                        Love and hugs,
                        Lori Crank

                          Hi Lori, Jenny is my surviving cat as I lost Sally last year and she is resting in the garden. My life long friends who will be looking after my affairs while I'm away has a daughter who will look after Jenny and give her a good home, so I am happy with that.
                          Having had the honour of meeting you at the Open Day I know what kind of person you are and I count myself lucky to have met you in person. For the problems you had while in England I can only apologise but you know that GC is a better place now. I will really miss everyone on GC and have been blessed to meet people of the calibre of yourself and all the other GC gang that know me.

                          That I do, and I thank you for that.:love30:

                              Well what can I say my dear friend. This comes as a shock to me and right now I'd really like to give you a big hug and make your health problems go away. I can't do either of those sadly, but I'll be with you and thinking of you during your spell in hospital and when you are recovering. You are a kind and generous person not only to me but to all of us here on GC and your time away will leave a big gap that no one else can fill.

                              Come back to us please, if not soon, but in the not too distant future when you are feeling better. I wish you well and hope the nursing staff take good care of you....or they'll have me to answer too! :)
