I texted John and he said there was some damage to a stone wall and, when he went out to secure a few pots, he couldn't keep to his feet so he went back inside again - and he's a six footer! However, apart from that, all is well for him, thankfully. I wish that it were same for everyone.
Round here it truly was just a gusty breeze. Not a pot moved! It was lovely and sunny too and I got two loads of washing line dried. We have been so fortunate.
We had a lovely surprise at Slimming World yesterday when Jen (our former consultant until she moved north) turned up to be weighed. She was back down to attend a wedding. It was absolutely lovely to see her again and she was warmly welcomed.
I had to rush to Morrisons again when I discovered that something I needed had run out, which was annoying but there you go. I thought I had a spare and I didn't! I intended to get four but there were only two on the shelf so I had to be content with that. I also grabbed a few more food bank items while I was there and I think I have my 31 things now, one for each day of the month, so I can drop them off next Thursday.
The rest of the day was spend washing, drying, ironing, knitting, chilling. Nothing too energetic and I managed to stay awake until bedtime, thank goodness. I did a bit of weed scraping and tackled the coat hangers for my sorting - I swear these plastic hangers reproduce when I'm looking the other way!!!
There's nothing in the diary for today or tomorrow but I am getting excited for Monday because I'm off to London with the Broomfield Coach people to see Oliver at the Gielgud Theatre. Quite apart from the fact that I love the musical anyway, I looked up the reviews and just wow! I've never read such good reviews before. I think we are in for an absolute stunner of an evening.
Time to wrap this up and start the day, I suppose. It's clear and dry outside and the trees are just gently moving in the breeze. Sunshine is forecast for all day so I guess it's a great day to get the bedding washed.
Anyway, enough waffling. Take care, stay warm and have a lovely day, everyone. xx
It's lovely to see the sun again and blue sky. It's still quite cold, but it is winter, after all!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a lovely winter day here, like yesterday but without wind. So cheering. xx
DeleteIt's a lovely, bright, sunny day here. And it's the first day I've been able to hang out the washing.
