Late Update

Ic besārgie for þes, ic eom swīþe sārig.

A little translating should cheer some of the masochists up. First I was busy, then, I had surgery, now, some not fun complications from surgery. I hope you will all forgive my being carleās. I do have plans to get back to the show soon, but for right now my health is my main concern. I hope you understand that and forgiefaþ mē mīne gyltas. 

Again, I'm very sorry for letting anyone down.

    Hi Bob. Hope your health is improving. I only recently got up to date with Kevin Stroud's excellent History of English podcast and I've had your Learn Old English on the back burner for some time. I finally started into it this week without realising you had been ill.
    I (in part selfishly) wish you well on your road to recovery.
    Jim.

    I just discovered your podcast after hearing of it on the History of English podcast. Sending well-wishes your way! Your health comes first. Take your time getting better, gather your strength, and I'll be looking forward to your next podcast whenever you are able! In the meantime, I'm looking forward to perusing what's on this web site and putting into practice some of your suggestions.

    Found your blog today. The language is very different than English. Thought that Old English was easier to learn.

    I am sorry to inform you all that Bob sadly passed away at the age of 80. He died four months after posting this. Here is a link to his Wikipedia page, which shows his birth and death dates.

      Might be the wrong Bob Kiley, but I can't find him either. :(

      I checked a little. No books by Robert or Bob Kiley, no professors emeriti popped up on a Google search.
