Pleased to read that ‘Grandad’, aka Richard O’Connor, author of the long-running and often very funny Head Rambles blog, is recovering well after a recent and serious operation.
I won’t go into details and I wouldn’t have mentioned it at all if it wasn’t for the fact that, thanks to Grandad himself, much of it is already online and in the public domain.
All I will add is that Richard’s courage and quirky good humour in response to recent events is not only remarkable, it’s genuinely inspiring.
I’m sure that having an irrepressible sense of the absurd helps, but perhaps blogging is a form of therapy too. Who knew?!
Full story, including an update from his daughter (who seems to have a very similar sense of humour), here.
