About Me
- Lorna Scammell
- Woodbridge, East Anglia - formerly North East England, United Kingdom
- My web log has four strands. It started as a simple sailing log of my voyage from the North east of England in my Southerly 95, LA Girl. As I came further south, the weather and my health deteriorated, so the second strand started, which is a commentary on various beaches and places that I visited. The third strand is about lung cancer. I was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer in August 2009, having been taken to hospital in Ipswich by ambulance - unable to breath. I eventually returned to my boat in Woodbridge and then came ashore to a nice flat by the station. The fourth strand is about life in Woodbridge. I am now sailing a Jaguar 21 called lookfar. I am also sailing dinghies again and now have a Streaker. Note that sailing in the river is harder than sailing at sea. Lorna died in 2013. This blog remains as a reminder of her wonderful character and life.

Hello. Sounds like you're having a really tough time, Lorna. I hope you begin feel more comfortable soon.
Have spent the last few weeks working in the 'Pimple'! I always think of you when I trudge up & down those bloody steep narrow steps:-) Your office is still there, pretty much unchanged... They've built a kitchen at the bottom of the stairs there now though!! It's great - very convenient. You'd have loved it if it had been there when you were working in there... Cappuccinos on tap :-)
It's cold up here in the North East at the mo - lots of snow on the Cheviots. Was up there on top of Cheviot with JAL on St Andrew's Day - beautiful views - blue skies and snowy hills...sparkling (horizontal!) ice on the fence wires... and the sea just visible in the distance. Really lovely.
Thinking of you, Lorna. Good vibes and virtual hugs sent your way.
