Unfortunately, due to this clot forgetting I had already bought tickets for Fillongley Show that same day I shall not be attending.
Extra food will now be consumed to build up my strength for walking around there all day |

I was thinking 9:30 at the Flying Standard? If we sit in the window, we can admire the cross at the same time. |

Woohoo! I was worried that I was too early or too late to tie up with your visit. |

I'm so looking forward to this, Gilly & Les,
Severn Trent are replacing our fresh water supply pipework, which is good news, even better that it's being executed under the free old pipe replacement scheme. Something for FREE.
It's tied me in a bit whilst my carers have been away on hols. They sent me a pic.
I will post it, so you will see I'm not the only Looney around here.
This is at Pickering. The loco running around their train. |

A mainly dry day with broken cloud and sunny intervals and just a small chance of a passing shower. Staying breezy with some gusty winds at times. Feeling pleasantly warm. Maximum temperature 23 |

It's thanks to Helen, for funding our breaky meeting this morning, with visitors Gilly & Les, flying in from Down-Under.
Brill.
PS. They arrived through the secret tunnel that used to burrow under Trinity St.
No questions, please. Security clearance required. |

Returning home, Neil, when they get to the centre of our earth, they have to take the second tunnel on the right, or else they finish up in China.
After I've enjoyed a small tot of Beaujolais, it all becomes much clearer.
Gilly & Les, pile into here with their luggage, where there's a Mondays only through lift service to Sydney Opera House.
Also, there's an emergency lever called a boomerang, which if they pull it, it brings them straight back.
There is actually a serious side to this. The company this morning was fabulous.
We do wish them a safe & trouble free journey home, as we do for Helen motoring up north.
Love to you all.

Big thanks to Helen for this morning's treat! And how wonderful to meet Gilly and Les again after several years - and no apparent change! Lovely chats all round which I wish could have gone on for many more hours! |

It was a great brekkie! I too hated to call it a day but the motorway loomed. There were a lot of people on the road. Now I get to truffle through all the goodies I got at the Herbert. |
