Tuesday

Jon was up early this morning again to let the builders in but it was raining and he had a text to say they weren't coming. Jon replied and said the rain was forecast for first thing and he was right as by 9.00 it was sunny and clear!

The new lamp arrived for Rene and Jon will get a bulb for it and then put it together as it has lots of bits to assemble it.

Jon went to Homebase and then to Ely to collect his hearing aids, again!

I had to get some housework done and tidy up before going out to Waitrose to buy some lunch for Ann and Marilyn who were due at 12.30.

I did my shopping and was very quick and stuck to my list and was back home in half an hour. There was a message on the answerphone from Ann saying they would be late as she was stuck in the bank but would be here by 1.00.

I got lunch ready and set the table and Jon came back. I then had another phone call from Ann to say they had taken the wrong direction on the M11 and were heading for London but would turn around!!! Lol! The next call I got an hour later they were in the BP garage on the Bury Road so after giving her directions - well it is seven years since she has been here - they arrived ten minutes later.

We had a lovely afternoon and enjoyed our lunch and just chatted and ate far too much. They both loved the house and how it looks now apart from the girls and my friend Mary, who has seen it as it has changed, they are the first people to see it and I was very happy at their reaction.

When we were in Spain and they day Ann came over to the villa for lunch Kirsty had not been well and so had not really spoken to her. Kirsty had to go to bed and so had not said goodbye so I sent her a text to say Ann was coming and Kirsty came after work as did James and we all sat chatting and before we knew it was 6.30!

Everybody left and we cleared up and watched some TV I made Jon and omelette later on and I had some cheese.

A very lovely day and it was lovely to see Ann and Marilyn.
