22nd
August 2020 (Saturday) 09.30 .... It’s a beautiful, bright and
breezy
|
The 'Ferry corner'. |
morning and everything is where it should be all around the villages....
the paper has been picked up from the ‘paper shop, along with two rolls, so I am ready for the weekend. The wind is a bit too strong for my biking
to Balcarres and, would you believe it, the card reader I ordered yesterday at
15.30 could be delivered today; that
would be amazing. I really think it
will be Monday though; I’m not sure if it will come by Parcel Force or the ‘postie’. I’ve taken a ‘wheen’ o’ photographs this
morning and might even get out again in the afternoon .... I’ll have a lot to ‘play’
with when the reader does arrive.18.30 Ferry Road seemed busy today, presumably
with some holiday makers leaving and new ones coming in. I’ve had a great day: Myra phoned inviting me up to ‘No 3’ for
morning coffee: by the time I got there
(I’d wandered along the beach meeting ... and chatting to... a few folks on the way) Kirsty and Geoff were
already e. It was good catching up
with each other’s news .... of which there was loads but I’ve forgotten it
all. The girls and I walked along the beach
on the way home; Geoff was in the ‘Buggy’.....
Myra was having her morning exercise, and Kirsty lives just round the corner
from me.

It’s
Janice’s birthday tomorrow (Sussex daughter in law) and I ordered (online) a
bunch of flowers to be delivered to No 1. This morning I had an e-mail from the
company (Prestige Flowers) to tell me that the flowers would be delivered as
asked.... and it looked like they were going to be delivered to Ivy
Cottage! I read the e-mail a couple of
times and was convinced I’d done it all wrong. But all was fine; the flowers were delivered to Janice as I’d
asked. I read the e-mail again and it
did make sense .... after I knew they were where they were supposed
to be.
My
afternoon was spent making Shepherd’s Pies for the freezer; so this has been a very satisfying and
pleasurable day for me. The weather
has been fine .... though it is cloudier now. I think tomorrow is going to be another ‘nae
bad’ day .... much like today was.
