We know and appreciate that many of our readers look in daily for pictures of Olvera, places we have visited or just to have a look at the weather. My recent spell of ill health has unfortunately curtailed our activities and it now seems that I was rather optimistic in suggesting that I would be back to something like normal within two or three weeks of leaving hospital. It now appears more likely to be two or three months, possibly more. So, not wishing to disappoint anyone, we thought it best to bring the entries on our blog to a hopefully temporary close, at least for a few months anyway. It's possible that we may pop up occasionally with an entry but regrettably not on such a regular basis as in the past.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are many things that Anne and I have to adapt to over the coming weeks and months that will take up a lot of our time but we sincerely thank you all for looking in over the years gone by. We have made some wonderful, lasting friendships and we hope to make more in the future. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are still here of course to assist and help anyone in any way that we can if you have any local queries about Olvera or the surrounding area as we received so much help prior to and since arriving in this most beautiful part of Andalucia. Please just send us an email either through the "Contact us" option on our blog or directly to us at acrosskey(at)yahoo.com and we will be happy to help if we can.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666;"><b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Until then, "hasta luego amigas y amigos" and thank you for your wonderful support.</span></i></b> </span></div>

Hopefully it won't be too long before we're once again wandering the streets of Olvera and beyond, putting more pictures of the place we love on our blog.

What started as a minor infection in mid January spread quickly through my kidney to my lungs, resulting in pneumonia and other complications developing.<br />
All better now though and I cannot thank the doctors, nurses and all other staff for their magnificent skill and care during my time there. Many thanks also to our friends in Olvera and further afield, and family of course, who rallied around with practical help and good deeds, giving your love and support at the time when we needed it most. No names, you know who you are. Everyone of you outstanding and very special people.<br />
Never least, to my lovely special wife Anne who has borne the emotional turmoil of the last few weeks with love, fortitude, patience and the strength of the Welsh. I love you to bits.<br />

<b><i><span style="color: #e06666;">Después de una involuntaria estancia de dos semanas en el Hospital Ronda, ahora estoy de vuelta en casa. Lo que comenzó como una infección menor a mediados de enero se extendió rápidamente a través de mi riñón para mis pulmones, dando lugar a la neumonía y otras complicaciones en desarrollo. </span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #e06666;">Mucho mejor ahora, sin embargo, y no puedo agradecer a los médicos, enfermeras y todo el personal por su magnífica destreza y cuidado durante mi tiempo allí. Muchas gracias también a nuestros amigos en Olvera y en otros lugares, y la familia, por supuesto, que se reunieron en torno a la ayuda práctica y las buenas obras, dando a su amor y apoyo en el momento cuando más lo necesitábamos. No hay nombres, ustedes saben quienes son. Cada uno de ustedes excepcional y gente muy especial. </span></i></b><br />
<b><i><span style="color: #e06666;">Nunca menos, a mi encantadora esposa Anne especial que ha llevado la confusión emocional de las últimas semanas con el amor, la fortaleza, la paciencia y la fuerza de los galeses.
