Afternoon all,
Had a lovely coffee (well flavoured water for me as I was so hot - long story, but involved missing a bus and being late) and cake with LadyLiberty, who is really lovely, and we chatted away for ages. Hopefully we're going to meet up again soon during the holidays, as we fancied a trip down to Gunwharf in Portsmouth - if you're free Froddy, we thought you'd like to join us too?
Popped into Mr T on the way back, and managed to get some of their posh finest breads in the reduced section, so will have some yummy sandwiches this week. Also managed to get some of their 30p hot cross buns that they've been advertising, so OH will be very pleased about that.
Washing is blowing nicely on the line, and I expect it will be dry when I go and check it in a minute. I'm going to see if I can get to the bottom of mount washmore again today, as it never stays clear for very long, and I want to make the most of the sunshine whilst I can for drying.
Good to see you back chamichelle - how was your first week?
Nice to see everyone working so hard.
