CHANGE OF PLANS..

Kay has telephoned to say that she is going to Wales tomorrow to see her very elderly mother in law, this means there will be no lunch or jaunt in the market on Thursday, SHE thought "never mind, I'll do so and so instead".

So much to do here in the city, YOU just have to go out and do or see it!

No going out today, only a quick trip upstairs to collect the mail, no mail for US, only stuff for Tereza which SHE collected as she is away with the children.

Back equally quickly as it started to rain, ugh! 

Metal board and whoosh machine came out of mr.Boiler room, whoosh machine will be known to YOU by his other name.. steam iron.

There was lots to iron, SHE is putting linens away in proper storage bags, everything is 'smaller' if it is ironed, so with smelly water for whooshing and music to boogie too, most of the 'lots to iron' stuff quickly disappeared into crisp, neat piles.

Only a small pile of table linen was left and that will be done tomorrow. Two sweaters were darned and mended, the side seam of a pretty grey cable had come undone and a little top needed some work on the hem, if YOU do it as soon as YOU see it, then all YOUR clothes will be neat and tidy.

SHE has planned an early supper tonight, WE are having Johanna's Potato Sauce on boiled red potatoes, steamed calabrese and tuna. 

That should keep that big bad old wolf from the door but alas and alack, there are no almonds or grapes for pudding. Sigh.

Never mind, a few cashews will have to do.

However, I might have to slip a nip in somewhere soon, for SHE, very nortily, tried to palm ME off with a couple of slices of orange at tea time, huh, silly woman. 

I eat Cox apples at tea time with Lapysang, I mean, YOU cannot crunch an orange, can YOU?

GeeGee Parrot.
