Arrived back in Cirencester today after completing the 2nd course of chemotherapy in Cheltenham hospital. "Escaped" at lunchtime, so we walked through Sandford Park to Cheltenham town centre to buy some sandwiches. Saw a few White butterflies about and 2 Speckled Wood butterflies beside the footpath in the park.
Back in Cirencester, I've only seen Whites in the garden.
I was in amazingly good health during this course of treatment in hospital. I felt quite frustrated, so on Saturday (28th) I asked if I could go out for a walk. We walked through the park to the town centre and visited Cheltenham Museum and Art Gallery. Again, I saw a Speckled Wood in the park. That afternoon out really lifted my spirits - it was lovely just to walk in the gentle sunshine and do something so "normal".

Hello Linda, Very pleased to see you are home again, and that your treatment is going well. It must be sheer bliss to you, to be able to go outside and look for butterflies. I live in Kent and have found butterflies very scarce this year. I have really only seen white ones, perhaps they all come from the fields of rape seed, where I have seen clouds of them, locally!! All good wishes Liz
