For the last 48 hours I have experienced, along with the usual post-BCG installation procedure discomfort at Southampton General Hospital, the anticipated flu-like symptoms. By late afternoon I was coming back to life and able to tackle picture library culling.

From https://derrickjknight.com/2013/10/12/to-sir-with-love/ I have retained these two images.
More and more I find a museum visit will contain samples from my childhood, as in https://derrickjknight.com/2013/10/17/the-workhouse/.

This evening we dined on succulent lemon chicken; boiled new potatoes; firm broccoli; crunchy carrots; and tender green beans, with which I drank more of the Merlot opened about three days ago.
Mm, lemon chicken! So good. Another wonderful set of photos, Derrick, thank you for sharing them! 😊
Glad to hear you’re better. The pictures are great!
Thanks very much, GP
Glad you hear you are feeling better, Derrick.
Thank you very much, Pat
I love the pictures of the children. The statues come a close second. I’m glad you’re feeling better.
Thank you so much Liz. I made an A3 print of the first of those burgher pictures
Nice! You’re welcome, Derrick.
Lovely images Derrick… I hope you are soon feeling better, Lovely meal you managed to get down you with that glass of wine…. Sending lots of love and healing thoughts your way xx
Thank you so much, Sue xx
Great pictures. I love the children’s photos, and Richard the Lion Hearted looks like he’s ready to attack the traffic. I’m glad you’re feeling better.
Thank you so much, Merril
I hope that your recovery continues smoothly.
Thanks very much, Tootlepedal
I hope you continue to improve, Derrick. Loved looking at the archives. ‘Coming Back to Life’ is one of my favourite Pink Floyd tracks 🙂
I’m glad you’re feeling better, Derrick. How many more treatments lie ahead? It’s fun going through history through pictures. I’ve been doing that myself.
Thank you so much, Alys. Just one more of this series, which will be repeated at three-monthly intervals for a year.

Such wonderful photos, Derrick. Hope you continue to feel better and better!
Back to normal for these days, Donna. Thank you very much
You have an incorrigible spirit. I find myself impressed with how much you do while having these challenges in your daily healthcare. Derrick, you are a powerhouse, though I imagine you are not really feeling that way lately.
Certainly not on the two days post-procedure. Thanks very much Crystal
All your photos are fascinating Derrick. Where is that of Jackie and the fireplace taken?
In Thomas Hardy’s cottage outside Dorchester. Thanks very much, Lakshmi
I’m glad you’re feeling better. Thanks for sharing your sweet photos!
Much appreciated, JoAnna
Good news.
Thanks very much, Rupali
I’m so glad you are feeling better. I hope you can even get some more rest this weekend.
Such a variety of photos in this grouping…some interesting photos, some artistic photos, some beautiful photos and some sweet photos. 🙂
(((HUGS))) ❤️❤️
Thank you so very much, Carolyn XX
I’m delighted the effects are wearing off.
I know what you mean about some museums reflecting our childhood. I take great delight in pointing out items to the family that we had in our home.
Thank you very much, Sue
Such lovely earlier photos, and oh I love lemon chicken.
Another set of wonderful captures, Derrick. I am glad you are feeling better.
Thank you very much, Eugi
Hope you are feeling better! Much better I am sure after your great dinner!
Love all the photos.
Thank you so much, Dwight. Better each day – until next time 🙂
One day at a time is all any of us have! Stay strong!
Yep
I am glad you are feeling better, Derrick. Richard Coeur d Lion sending an army of cars into battle is funny. There is a cast of The Burghers of Calais in the Philadelphia Rodin Museum, so I was lucky to see it live. I must have spent hours on several occasions studying every detail. It is arguably his best work.
Thank you very much, Dolly. I agree
You ae most welcome, Derrick.
Fascinating photos. You have engaged yourself in a project that is as engaging as it is challenging.
Thank you so much, Uma
I am glad you are feeling better, Derrick, and made time to put together this beautiful post of memories. I remember that movie with Sidney Poitier, “To Sir With Love”, and the song, too.
Thank you so much, Lavinia
The silhouettes are my favorite!
Thank you very much, Diane
Glad to read you’re feeling more like yourself
Thank you very much, Sheree
I’m glad you’re feeling better Derrick!
Thank you very much Riba. Just off to my next procedure 🙂
