  • Seems the oldies were as fed up with the painters as myself, all their activities have been cancelled this week as the lounge is being done - anyway they were so fed up they arranged a trip out to local restaurant for tea out of their funds and invited me as a guest :j So had a lovely steak with all the trimmings and stilton sauce, and a couple of gin and tonics and never spent a sausage:D Seems to have cheered everyone up a bit.
