Give him all the best and thank him for Saltburn Festival. He wasn't too well then! Take care Fred.

We went to visit Fred yesterday.
He's in a nursing home in Ditton Priors in Shropshire.
He's well enough considering the rough time he had at the beginning of the year, but he gets tired quickly and I think he's resigned to the fact that he won't be able to look after himself in his own cottage any more.
The staff at the home are friendly, and if their hospitality to visitors is anything to go by, they will make sure Fred is happy and comfortable.
It's good that they have allowed him to festoon the walls with his collection of horse brasses. He spends many a happy hour with his tin of metal polish making them gleam.
I think "young Fred" is getting more visitors than the rest of the residents put together, but old friends will always be welcome there.

Any chance of Fred making it to the National, or have we lost the Farmer's Boy?

The National is usually when Fred lands in hospital ..... he started a little early this year
Hope he's managing to keep his right arm busy though. (Hand to mouth movement)

I know Fred would like to go to the National - health permitting, but as ever, he would need a lift there.

If you can't get to see him, have a virtual visit.
Here's Fred.
