Good morning from Bristol. Haven’t looked out yet, but assume it’s dry. It certainly is dark and mild…
Today would have been our 49th wedding anniversary. We were both “old” when we met and married.
I had such a full day yesterday and was very tired by evening.
I did all sorts of bits before going off to church, including lending my little heater for the estate coffee morning, which, of course, I couldn’t attend.
FAB cafe went well although not terribly well attended. A lady came to look around and decide whether she wanted to be a replacement to my friend, who’s moving away in a fortnight. She says AgeUK is starting a new FAB cafe in her new area, and expects she’ll be running that one.
Rushed home for a bite and went off for the library book group. I stopped at the building society for cash. The poor cashier didn’t have a good time with me. First she counted out £50 more than I’d asked for, I burst out laughing. She looked relieved. Then she’d run out of cheques so needed to”someone upstairs to read her email asking for more”, more waiting, etc. it made me late for the book group.
The book “the ashes of London” went down well, even with one lady who speaks very, very slowly, and is always extremely critical of the choice. I do notice that she never suggests anything. Recently, it’s often been something I’ve recommended
I came back to sort out stuff before going away. DH always liked the house to be clean and tidy before we went away, and it’s become a habit - so cue washing and cleaning!
I’m off around 930 - and, for the curious, we are going to Exeter for 2 nights. As DH didn’t like going away much (except to Paris, where he’d go in a breath), I haven’t been to many British places. We’d rarely even go out on day trips!
Hope this finds you in a good place. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🌹🦩
