Saturday

 Good morning and Happy Saturday to us all.  After a very wet morning yesterday, the weather brightened up just in time for the cream tea so we were able to enjoy it sitting out in Lindsey's garden.  It looks rather promising at the moment so fingers are crossed for a really nice day.

As always, Slimming World group was really good and much less frantic than last week.  Jen now has someone else to help her with booking people in; I did give it a go but all those numbers (fees, money for hi fi bards, books, magazine, etc) are not great for someone who is mildly dyscalculic and I think I probably made more problems than I solved so I went back to weighing people instead.  I can do that and people seem to like me doing it so . . . good!  Anyway, Michelle volunteered and did a great job so now Jen can greet new members, etc.

Then I went home where I whisked around doing all sorts - packing, sorting, washing, ironing, getting the place ready for my friend who is having a house sitting holiday of her own and watching the rain, hoping it would clear up - which it did.

The cream tea was great - lots of sociable chatter and some yummy cakes although I could only manage a scone (rather large) with jam and cream and a coffee.  That filled me up and I wasn't the only one.  I just hope Lindsey can freeze what's left.

Today I'm up early so can start sorting out the fruit and veg which I am taking with me.  There's a bit of ironing, a bit of packing, a bed to make and so on and I'm due at Specsavers at nine to pick up my new aids, fingers crossed.  Then I will do a little shop before coming home to finish off and depart.  
So that's today.  See you the other end.  xx
