We, Thurs, Fri

Friday
We spent the morning clearing the loft. Cats both managed to get up into the loft much to Jon's horror.

Cleared the small bedroom so Heather's friends can sleep there.

Did more cleaning so at least I feel the house is not too bad now

Heather's friends did say to her that the house looked clean and shiny so young people do notice.

Phoned the estate agent to come on Monday for a valuation.

Jon and I went to the Rosary Hotel for lunch and had a Newmarket sausage baguette, very nice

Bought Jon some shoes as he wants to get out into the garden and do some much needed work which he did when we got back and I did yet more cleaning.

Went out to Jane's for dinner.'Lovely night with her and Jason. Persuaded them to go and look at some houses and told them we would help with the deposit, they are very happy. Their house is nice and clean and the rabbits are outside.

Minus 5 when we came home but at least we had the car tonight and didn't need to walk.


Thursday
Jon went to meet David Cross in Ipswich

I helped Heather clear some things what a big job and she is slow and it looks worse than ever in her room

I went to meet Sonia for lunch and popped in and saw a few more people

Nice lunch. She gave me a lovely Bon Voyage charm with an enamel flip flop on it

I hit M&S and bought a lot of nice things.

After a quick walk around town I walked home which was nice as I could have good look around.

More tidying and then Kirsty took us over to Roger and Mary for dinner.

Lovely night and lovely dinner.

Left and walked home at midnight, very cold and very stiff by the time we got back. We should have called a taxi.



Wednesday
Saw Eve and Stan over at Mary's. They are so sweet. Eve is a little wriggle and Stan is a very sturdy little boy.

Jon came back to pick me up and we had lunch with Roger and Mary which was very nice.

We then went off to Haverhill to see Derek, Elaine and Baby Rebecca who is so sweet and so good and just sat in her chair. I had a cuddle and then she started to rub her face so Elaine put her back in her chair and the next time I looked she was fast asleep.

We then went into Cambridge to change our Tripp suitcase. We bought them about five years ago and they have a lifetime guarantee. The lady asked for the recipe and I told her I did not have it so she said she couldn't give me a new one as she didn't know what we had paid. I said I didn't mind which one we had as long as we got one. she picked one out and it was fine so out we walked with a new case. They now only give five years guarantee so we must put it safe somewhere.

We went out to dinner with Rob and Bina and had a really lovely evening at the Thai restaurant and then went back to their house for coffee and to see 'Dave' our plant they are fostering!!! He looks very well.

As it is only down the road to our house we walked back but it was a very cold walk home.


WEATHER
Generally dull and cold especially at night
