We're too enslaved to their rules- here many lovely little cafés and bed and breakfasts closed due to "hygiene", but not so in France.Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100985140335023467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-70862855023583177652010-07-05T03:07:06.389+01:002010-07-05T03:07:06.389+01:00Hoping you are feeling better, Eddie.

I agree with some other blogger comments above though that you need to do what's right for you. Whether that is cutting back on the roasts or taking a break for a bit to write more about your own experiences.Happy Frog and Ihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02679066739313347920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-91943416292339522202010-07-03T11:18:04.140+01:002010-07-03T11:18:04.140+01:00Eddie I thought of you this weekend, and I am sorr...Eddie I thought of you this weekend, and I am sorry to hear about your infection.

Please let us know how you are doing. Regarding the roast, the only thing I would suggest is maybe have a few different questions and change off with them. Maybe everyone is so used to the same question although for me personally I think they are good for a short post to get as much info from the "roastee" as possible. I think you put a lot of work into the whole business of the Sunday Roast and you don't get to just enjoy your blog and visit other blogs like the rest of us. Maybe change the name to Blogger Roast and don't do it every week. I know there is a solution that will be good for you and your needs.CiCihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615265608675467505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-13570764666688515772010-07-02T00:08:27.114+01:002010-07-02T00:08:27.114+01:00Get well, Eddie! hugs!Get well, Eddie! hugs!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03803472040500529682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603897690317712031.post-50260919734945377882010-07-01T23:54:06.839+01:002010-07-01T23:54:06.839+01:00I am so sorry to hear of your leg infection Eddie....I am so sorry to hear of your leg infection Eddie. I too will pray for you! And I can only imagine how time consuming putting a roast together can be. But I enjoy them immensely and would hate to see them go by the wayside. It is summer and people tend to take extended holidays. So that could cause some delays in responses or no responses at all. Those lazy, hazy days of summer you know. And some our in winter and therefore hibernating. Ha!!
