Friday

Good morning, everyone.  I overslept so this is later than usual!  It's cold and damp out there but no snow although we had some very light flakes yesterday morning.

I had a lovely time catching up with F.  We talked endlessly for nearly two hours before realising how close to lunch it was.  We had to go then because our table was reserved for lunchtime. 
Life is funny sometimes - it turns out that F and her family have a cottage guess where - Southwold!  She was able to tell me loads about things to do, places to go, etc.

SW group was good.  It's grown somewhat with a lot of new members after Christmas and New Year and yesterday one of us (not me) hit target which is always a happy time.  I lost a pound, not as much as I hoped but in the right direction so no problems.

I'm going to live dangerously today (or maybe tomorrow).  All being well, I intend to pootle off to Hobbycraft to take a look at any pottery tools they have.  Yes, there's stuff at class but most people have their own and you can't always find what you need easily.   Things like spray bottles, J cloths, pots for water/slip, etc, also seem to be individual.  Anyway, I shall take a look and see.  I can't spend too much because not only have I paid for two holidays, I have also paid a deposit on a new bathroom I am having.  It's just as well I have savings to move across if necessary.

Apart from that, there's nothing in the diary until a food delivery between five and seven this evening,  I still feel as if I'm fighting off this whatever-it-is-virus so I think I'll have a gentle day.
You have a good one too.

  1. How lovely with the ideas about Southwold. We popped in there last year, enjoying happy memories of 30+ years ago when we were really in the area for a funeral the next day. The estuary still pretty and little boat trips around but wow the wind was blowing on the pier. Great cafe there. I was so glad we made the effort and revisited.
