RTL, very pleased that things are going well for you with your bus journeys. Also lovely that you will be able to go to your church again, I know how important it is for regular churchgoers. Hope you and your friend are able to get places.
Viktoria, what a shame about the paint. Could you perhaps mix it with a tin of white to tone it down? That would only work of course if you only need one tin as you couldn't guarantee to mix it the same again. And of course you would end up with a lot of spare! Maybe best to just not use it! Hope the cat turns up safe and well.
My Day:
Another warm sunny day. Did a bit of personal maintenance this morning, manicure and removed varnish from toenails and renewed. Arranged with my friend J to go for a walk tonight.
Was going to go for a walk late morning but NN was doing her front garden and despite my intentions not to be intimidated by her I just couldn't be bothered with it all. I'm usually going for my walk a bit later these days and similarly she is doing her garden a bit later, it's absolutely pathetic. I cut the back lawn instead, at least I knew she was out of the way and I could enjoy doing it. Came in for lunch then spotted her going out with her daughter so I took the opportunity to go and trim the her shrubs that are protruding onto my drive. I only cut those bits - despite her ruining my plants I wouldn't stoop to her level by doing the same to hers. I saw that she had dug another hole right next to my drive, obviously for yet another shrub.
After lunch I went for a short walk on the field, came home and did a lot more gardening. Trimmed some shrubs, did my best to cut the overhang into my nice neighbours' garden. Dug out some roots of unwanted plants. Heard NN going out to the front garden, saw later that she had indeed put another shrub in, as near as you could get to my drive. Came indoors before I overdid the gardening, didn't want to feel too tired for my walk with J, I was also ready for a cuppa.
Went to meet J, was still lovely and warm, we walked down to the coast road then along the path by the beach. A group of three men were cycling towards us alongside each other, they made no attempt to get behind each other and when we did so they just cycled on without saying thanks. A police helicopter had been hovering over the area, it then flew quite low along the beach. We thought perhaps they were looking for large groups of people, we could see quite clearly from where we were that there weren't any. It was cooler by the sea but looked so beautiful, the sea was like a millpond. Got a phone call from my friend to say that he was at my house with my car, all work done and passed MOT, hooray! Only problem was that I wasn't in! Sorted that out later.
Walked back home, just did an omelette, potatoes and tomatoes for tea.
Watched Eat Well For Less on TV, it amazes me what rubbish some people feed their children on.
