SUNNY DAYS & STEAMY NIGHTS.!

No.. don't worry folks, she's behaving herself! The steamy nights refer to how hot it is at night or has been recently.

It was a cracker of a day today, she worked from half eleven to a quarter to five and then went to MailBox to get a package before they closed at six of the evening clock. Having crossed the road, she spied a tidy box full of other cardboard boxes.. splendid, just what she needed in order to send a package down to Plymouth. She dragged that home.. waste not, want not.. and they are perfect!

The shop was busy and she spent a happy hour sitting down 'marrying' up endless pairs of clip-on earrings which had been donated and pricing them, she found some lovely stuff and just as she had finished, one of their nicest dealers came in and said "may I have a look" and took three things which she had just priced.

A small bag of Chinese Turquoise, a small 18ct gold charm and an 18ct gold ring set with a small engraved Chrisophrase stone. He was happy with his purchases and she was happy, they'ed been sitting in a box since last winter with no-one wanting to sort the hideous jumbled up mess out.. a BIG box!

Then off she went to MailBox to collect the Swedish Bitters which that lovely Herbalist, Christine Brown who runs Granary Herbs, had sent up to her.. haha.. she isn't going to let that happen again. that's for sure! No Swedish Bitters equals a sore tumtum!

We've had supper, Pork Loin chops on a bed of home grown salad and herbs, what could be nicer? Followed by the very last smidgen of Goaty cheese.. it's mid week, we've now got to wait until next Sunday until we get more.. sigh.

Busy day tomorrow, package has to go to a Post Office and then she's off down to the allotments for a full days' work, Friday has rolled around very quickly, in the morning she is putting on a pretty dress and going off as she has appointments to see people about financial sponsorship and donations for the Streatham Dementia Support Group that her Rotary Club runs each Friday afternoon.

Then she'll whizz home to collect me, then we whizz back up by train to Streatham Hill. Lots of whizzing about on Friday and she must remember to go to collect her new Rotary cards from MailBox before they close tomorrow, otherwise she'll have to go there first on Friday morning, you can't go out to do serious fundraising without your official Charity or corporate card!

Busybusy.. nothing she likes better.. I'm just hoping they'll have the boiled fruit cake on Friday.. keep your claws crossed folks.

GeeGee Parrot.
