Hello everyone. It's Sunday evening and I'm ready for blasting tomorrow. Bit dizzy today and I'm starting to bump into things and knock things over (sorry about the milk, vase and the other vase Mum and dad!) Si and Jo, Charlie and Archice came to visit...yippee! Went for a slow walk with Jo then ate loads of nuts in the Bull in Wheathampstead. You'll all be amused to know that the steroids (to take down the inflamation in my brain) are making me eat like there is no tomorrow. I have a capacity to eat more food than you can imagine. I challenge anyone to a 'How much food can you eat' competition! The flip side is that I've put on a STONE since I left hospital which was only 2 weeks ago!!. I've been told it keeps going that way until I stop the steroids (3 months....damn!) I've got my turbo trainer and I don't think I can crash that yet so I'm going to have to put a few hours on that (with food breaks...doh!)
I'm so happy that you are reading my blog and now know what's going on. checking comments is the highlight of my day. Apart from speaking to Jeanette of course.
Love to you all
Ali

Keep strong
Big hug

Hi Mate
Sorry I'm one of those you've not heard from for years, but the Kimpton grapevine has kept me in touch with what you've been up to! Thinking about you lots - your blog is fantastic and I love the photos.
All the very best
Love
Miranda (& Alan)
Hi Ali,
Greetings from Blackmore Manor! What a great idea to have a blog so that everyone can keep tabs on your progress. Love seeing the photos, esp. the HUGE one in deep snow (although how do we know it's really you?!) and the ones of Jeanette - congratulations on being engaged to such a beautiful young lady!
Hope you have a good week on the buzzymachine,
Love and best wishes - L.
Given your weight gain, do they make buzzymachines in extra large?!
Keep smiling, R.
Hi there,´
Just thinking is the buzzymachine male or female? Hopefully female because then we can trust she will tenderly look after you.
I´m sure John would love to be a challenger in the 'how much food you can eat competition' because I think it is a reputation he is carving out for himself on BASI courses. Don´t worry lean blokes like yourself can afford to put on a few kilos. I like the idea of having more of Ali RAinback to hug.
Thinking of you. All the best Love CArolyn.
hey Ali
Loving the blog - you had better watch out, the boys will have you running the NG site before you know it (particularly as Matt has not managed to work out how to post a comment yet..)..
Just been to see the Golden Compass, and I think you would really love it and think you would too - definitely one for your must see list.
Thinking of you and Jeanette and sending you both all my love

Hey Sweetie,
Just had a lovely evening out with Nikki, Janey & Simone and they are all sending their love and positive vibes! You will be glad to know that they are looking after me very well!
You'll also be happy to hear that Vinnie is being a legend, even sans-pneus-neiges! It just doesn't stop snowing at the moment!
Hope you're having a lovely snooze after your day with the family. Can't wait to see you in 2 & a half days! J x x x
Ali,
Great blogging! We are right behind you and Jeanette. We know you have the toughness to beat this. When you are back on the Shandies - it's your round!!
See you on Saturday, with love Jo and David
Yo Mr R! Great blog - have been kept in touch by all & sundry in Kimpers & Harpers, and Jemma gave me the blog addy. Just to let you know that Claire and I are rooting for you! (Bet you never thought you'd end up with a haircut like your brother's!!) Keep smiling, matey, and you'll be back on the white stuff in no time! (er, that's snow, not a drugs reference)
Big Hugs all round, Ewan
Hi Ali,
Great to see you're in such good spirits. Love reading your blog and seeing all your photos and all the new additions to your family since I saw you last.
Keep strong and as my Mother tells me - turn your face to the sunshine and the shadows will all fall behind you.
Lots of love from the Spencers and the Halls
Jane-Anne
Bonjour Monsieur Pluiedos (Rain - Back haha!)
Just a little morning message to wish you well for your treatment today....more rhymes brewing so watch this space! I'm loving the blog, it's taking over facebook, and that's quite a statement!! Will write soon. Janey xx
That's confusing! I'm Janey too!
Hi Ali,
The blog is awesome! It's great to hear how you are getting on. Well, I hate to say it, but it's dumping here in Val D Isere, first tracks we'll be thinking of you. Because of my size I'll definately get some face shots!
Good luck, stay strong, Jonesey
Hi Ali,
Hope today went well, Here's your next two rhymes...
Judging by the photos
You're a legend on skis
Oh dear Mr Rainback
Will you teach us please
They won't settle
For anything but the best
So get yourself better
To help them with the speed test!!
10 minutes a day with a machine called Buzzy
I know it makes your head feel fuzzy
Don't you forget it's doing you good
Taking care of you
Like we all should :)
with lots of love from Janey xx
Hi Ali,
Just a thought; if you keep putting on all this weight will Nick start calling you fat Ali and if so; what will you call him?
Beef; rare or crisped?
Looking forward to seeing you and Jeanette Sunday.
Take care.
Love Mrs H.
