LEMONS & MAKING LEMONADE

WE got up very early this morning but got straight back into bed.. let ME explain!

SHE got up and lifted a very sleepy ME out of My bed, I attached Beaky to HER neck chain and WE climbed back into HER bed.

Yes.. for that deliciously lovely period of cuddles, nape scratching and kisskiss time.. so good to have this time together under a warm quilt and to know that the day does not start for another hour at least.

Then it was into YumYum HQ to break that norty fast, with a soft boiled egg and a large slice of rye bread with sunflower seeds.. this is, indeedy, most edibubble.

Then it was time to wash, dress, kiss Beaky as there was a hair appointment at 11 of the morning clock.

Pouring with cold wet rain.. ugh. Don't worry folks, the heating is on constant, low but it is on!

SHE bussed it to Fulham Broadway, robbed the hole-in-the-wall for cash and continued down on through the market to Louis, the barbers in Lillie Road.

No sign of Irina.. after about ten minutes she called to say she had forgotten HER appointment.. grrr.

Never mind, this gave HER an hour to do stuff.. like go to the three local gyms to find out the cost of being a member. The prices were extremely 

varied! 

SHE explained what SHE wanted then and as SHE was walking home.. eureeka!

The other Charity that SHE supports, which is about seven minutes fast walk away from home, also does Pilates and Yoga classes.

A swift about turn brought HER to the lovely building in Cadogan Street, their nice smiley receptionist who knows HER well, said "of course, just book in on the day of the class, they are £1.25 per class..

SHE replied "I will see you next Monday, have a happy week, bye bye".. SHE just about managed to make it out of there with a straight face.. 

£1.25 a class times 2 classes per week equals £2.50 a week x 4 weeks in a month, even I can do those maths, a tenner a month and NO joining fee!

The cheapest other place was £35.00 a month for a minimum of twelve months and much further away.

So.. Sometimes when YOU get given a Lemon (hairdresser not turning up), YOU get to make really delicious Lemonade, by finding a great Pilates Class right on one's doorstep.

And to cap it all.. Lovely Assistant from Studio days of two years ago has just telephoned, would SHE like to have lunch with him in Hatton Garden on Wednesday at 1 of the afternoon clock.

How nice is that.. lunch with Hal. He is such a funny man, he used to allow ME to sit on his head for hours. Happy days are here again and WE will be gardening soon as well.

PipPip.. FlapFlap, it is tea time, WE are waiting in for a delivery for Tereza, they are due to delivery 'it' between 15.08 and 16.08.. they have precisely four minutes to get it here!

They did not do as she asked, they just popped it into the letter box upstairs, there was no need for anyone to wait in for them, silly people, never mind, a few chores were done and it got HER home in time for lunch.

GeeGee Parrot.
