Good morning from a dry Bristol. As no rain is forecast, I’m washing my towels and drying them outside.
Thank you for all your good wishes re.Philip. I received good news from DGS’s mum. He had shut down completely and barely spoke about his father, etc., but now seems to be turning the corner, sharing memories and laughing about his idiosyncrasies, etc. he is is now 22. It has really made me happy, I was so worried about him.
DD is planning on going away for a long weekend in October with me and the girls and was thinking of Exeter. Other than the cathedral, would you pm me with ideas of things to do, places to visit and good vegetarian places to east please?
Yesterday was interesting with my all day seminar. Very few people other than me asked questions. The session ended early and I was able to get home fairly quickly. It didn’t rain for either journey, so I was dry!
I got home to find the almost final lot of scaffolding put up round my little block, with poles 6” from my front window which is on the pavement.
The painting was due to be signed off as finished yesterday, although still about 1/3 is yet to be done. I hope the management hasn’t, especially not until all the bits and pieces have been mended. The work has been slow and shoddy to the extreme. The residents are not happy!
Today, I’ve got church coffee, the there is the next village’s fete where I’m helping at the WA stall after lunch.
I have also started to make mincemeat with a friend’s apples which needs cooking and bottling. The quilt will have to wait.
May you all have a good weekend. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩🦩
