NO TNT RACES ON THE ISLE OF MAN.. FOR IT'S BLOWING A GALE.. HERE.. THERE.. EVERYWHERE!

Poor Isle of Man.. dreadful galeforce winds have caused chaos with the TNT Racing.. and down here, in deepest Knightsbridge, it ain't much better!

She went to Hackney to collect her new glasses from EYE Opticians in Mare Street today and all of the trees en route were having a dreadful battering! A lot of building sites were wrapped up but with no work going on, too dangerous with this degree of debris blowing about.

She was stunned.. the only word for it.. by the beauty of Hackney Town Hall.. wow! And a lot of the property in that area is amazing, you can see where the skeins of bombs fell in the first and second world wars by the change in architecture.

Having collected her glasses, she went off for her promised Vietnamese lunch.. oh.. and how very slurpicious it was too. It was a tiny Noodle Bar but it was full of both Vietnamese and Europeans eating.. always a good sign!

BooHoo.. Her Lebanese friend is going to Paris, where most of her family are, for two months.. so no more coffee / tea stops on the way home. We'll miss her, she's always up for a jaunt to a museum and is intelligent and funny, a good mix.

Yesterday was a funny day, Susan was in a 'strange' mood.. and is uncontactable today.. most odd indeed. We just hope she's ok and that she'll be at our Singing group on Friday, when we, yes, her and I, will be taking the group! (And Mary, our President has had no luck getting hold of her either).

There'll be me on her head, putting my left wing in and taking my left wing out, in out in out and shaking it all about.. that always gets them (and me) moving! And she has asked Cousin Bruce to bribe Nephew Jack aka Cousin Steve's son.. with the task of burning some new 'old' songs.. we are bored to tears with the two cd's that they have and would like a bigger, much jollier selection.

So now we're thinking of about twenty four 'jolly' sing-a-long songs that we could have.. any suggestions are most welcome.

Sky has gone beige again, it is so dreary this wet weather with the barometic pressure somewhere lurking around one's ankles.. boring.. tiring too.. ugh. So we're off and going to snuggle up in her cosy bed, she'll read one of her new Library books that she collected on Sunday and I'll doze on her head and have the odd squint down at a page if she laughs.

Yawn..

GeeGee Parrot.
