Thursday

Good morning, everyone.  It's still dark here as I had an early bedtime resulting in an early wake too.  It feels jolly cold too, such a contrast to yesterday which was gloriously warm and sunny with a refreshing breeze.

Apart from the weather it was a most frustrating day yesterday.  Without going into details there were two visits to the bank, the second to sort out their cock up after the first one (I was NOT pleased) and two visits to B&Q.  I did, however, get the wheelbarrow things and yes, they had pink!  I was too late to help Beth with the allotment but my apologies were accepted, offered as they were with hot coffee and muffins.  It's all starting to look so much better now.  We're pulling rhubarb and the mange tout are shooting.  Yay!

Well done, Beth!

Over lunch we managed to put the lawn mower together, the battery is charged up now so it's all go for this morning.  It won't be easy as the ground is bumpy and the grass very long but we will set it to the highest setting and do our best.  It has to be better than it is at present and several mowings will sort it out before we settle to a once a week thing.

After allotment this morning I will come home and tidy myself up before trundling down to school this afternoon to hear Y2 readers.  And that's about it for the day really apart from the usual housework, washing, etc.

Today's food:
B:  toast and marmalade, yogurt
L:  gala pie with salad, apple
D:  chicken curry, rice, yogurt with stewed rhubarb and strawberries
