Evening all. It's blooming cold outside!

Lovely day

Dog walk

Chat with DD1 she was the only one at the airport hotel at that point . So she had first dibs on the double bed

Walked up to friends and then we went to school Christmas fayre. Very warm , very busy.
Walked home.

Was a lady who lunched. At mine! Had five friends over and it was lovely to catch up. Made lentil soup, salad,nibbly bits and pieces. Then teeny tiny mince pies. Lots of laughter.

Nice dog walk when they left, though blooming cold wind.

Some leftover lentil soup for tea.

friend and her daughter popped in.

Odd text from a 'friend' she had messaged this afternoon asking a very random question. When I said who it was from other friend said 'I'm sure I just saw her drive by your house!' So she would have seen all their cars and us sitting in the dining room. Messaged her later. Then had a text saying it looked like she'd missed a lovely lunch and she'd been cleaning her bathrooms on her day off. No, you didn't miss lunch as you hadn't actually been asked.

Tomorrow I have another lunch with just one friend which will be same as today. So everything is all prepped and will just need to make another batch of mince pies, though enough pastry left.

Kids will be on their way by 5.45am my time. Such a long journey.

I’ll wave as I pass them by in the sky, I’m off to Australia early tomorrow morning to stay with family in north east Victoria for two months.

Woakes gone 2nd ball and just as I write that, Root goes, caught behind.

Ah well.

Agree with Aggers that some DRS technology needs looking at, as does its rôle. Thought so yesterday. It's becoming a topic in rugby at the Alma too. The game, whichever code, is played and ref.d by humans. Decisions are mostly good, if infuriating at times. & posited that undermining and weakening of human arbitrage skills, ipso facto, lessens them and weakens the game, all aspects, especially the wider Life lesson of treating 'those two imposters just the same'.

1. Debadgered, late arvo, college salon. Hooray:-)

2. Missed previous day's call<optician, thanks to notspottery, so checked, then drove>town of horse for lunettes, one pair. What a relief. Needless to say, further call re: 2nd pair came to & some hours later, some miles away, in salon. Will collect Fri.

3. Art Quarterly came over w/e. Saved 'til yesterday and Salon time( and lunettes) Talks insert includes a special Grayson Perry event, 18 Feb. Moment of soddit - & has booked, combi crimbo/b'day cadeau>self. Msgd Spits buyers-become-friends re: same. D's immediate response positive+pleased.

..........Uh-oh, that's Moeen gone, unwise shot. No reviews left.

4. These osps started with hot milk+honey, instinctively needed. Wish whatever this lurgy is would go. Hot milk and honey in Lowry mug, good to drink and hold. Comfort.

5. & doesn't do Asda, but located one, town of Gown, dreadful retail park place, en rte to Salon. Their almond icing cheapest by 61p per 500gm pk and 4 cakes=12 pks. Not doing h-m for so many.

Well, have limped through this on mob., with 2 sudden blank screens, so tempt fate no further, &.

Frith - you have 2 witness proof of taxi person's mouthings. & wants to drag school kicking and screaming into awareness. This psychyte outrages &, which achieves nothing.

.....at which point, Overton's gone.

Night all, morning all. Light off now.
