Back in London after the Nairobi landmine summit, which I managed to peel away from a day early to get home for the weekend.

My sleep patterns are slowly returning to normal and there'll be a summary of the Nairobi trip tomorrow.

First, though, here's the latest health bulletin on Frank Gardner which, as we had feared, indicates continuing concern over whether he'll be able to walk.

"Six months after the shooting, Frank continues to recover in hospital. He is currently undergoing physiotherapy and occupational therapy at an orthopaedic hospital.

"Although in good health, it is not yet known if he will ever regain the full use of his legs due to spinal nerve damage. But he is able to return home for short visits and will be spending Christmas at home with his family. In the New Year, Frank faces a major operation to carry out further surgery to his abdomen.

"Once he's recovered from that, he very much looks forward to returning to the screen and to the airwaves. He remains in good spirits and is, as ever, very grateful to all those who have been kind enough to send messages of support."

Today is tomorrow, Saturday, Dec. 4th. If you wait any longer it's going to become a second tomorrow :-) Sunday, Dec. 5th. So which "tomorrow" can the summary be read? :-)

Sorry, Mr. Blogger. Didn't mean to wake you up from your beauty sleep. Just arriving from a long trip like that, "tomorrow" can mean any day as long as the sun rises the next day. Sometimes tomorrow means along time and not within the next 24 hours.
