Rain at last

It was a lovely morning with no wind today and I picked Les up to go swimming. Only the main pool was open today as the smaller, hotter ones were being cleaned so the main one was particularly warm. We had a really good lesson but I could feel my back hurting so I was not too enthusiastic.

After the class we stayed int eh main pool and had a swim till the showers would be free and then we got out. We went to our usual place for coffee and I had a hot cross bun and bought one for Jon to take home. Les has a problem with her eye and needs an operation and asked me if I could take her next week as her daughter is away on holiday. She needs to go on Monday for the op and then back on Tuesday to have it checked. Pool woman has not had a lot of luck since coming to NZ and as she is only on a visitors visa she has to pay for all her medical care. Of course I said I would take her and we also arranged to go out for the day again tomorrow.

I then went looking for a fish shop I had been told about and I eventually found it down near the port in the middle of an industrial estate. I bought some king fish which looked nice. The girl behind the counter asked me what I did with it and I told her I would have to Google it when I got home and she thought that was really funny. I told her I had to Google all the fish as I was English and we don't have all this kind of fish.

I then went to collect my contacts which I had a call about and they also fixed my sunglasses. I tried some new perfume a Dior one which is very nice. I am looking for a new perfume but as I have a very sensitive nose and lots of perfumes give me headaches i need to try them on my skin so it is a long job trying to find one, maybe I should just stick with the tow I have used for years!

I then went to the shop for bread and it was still only 11.00 and I thought I had got so much done in a morning so thought I would go home and take Totty out before Jon got home for lunch.

I looked at the clock in the kitchen when I got home and it said 12.55! My watch said 11.30. I don't know what happened to my watch but I then had a bit of a rush to get lunch ready.

After lunch Jon went back to work and I took Totty out and got back just as we had a really heavy shower.

I found a nice recipe for king fish using curry powder and it was very good.

Still trying with the help of my nephew to sort Facebook out. I still can't upload more than five photos and it is a real pain.

The rain has stopped and it is all nice and fresh outside and smells lovely.

WEATHER
Warm and sunny this morning and clouding over this afternoon with some decent rain showers this evening
