Smallest grandson to swimming this morning while Jamie and I walked the dog along the river in Builth. Then a spot of lunch in Burger King (!) listening to rally cars touring the showground.
We seem to be awash with poppies atm. WonderWool (big knitting, sewing, weaving etc. exhibition held on the Royal Welsh showground in the spring) are planning a curtain of poppies to commemmorate the end of WW I and lots of craft groups and WI’s in the area are making them. We’re also going to use ours on the altar at next week’s Remembrance Service.
Lots of heavy showers this morning-got caught in one earlier.
Lots of fireworks last night,my dog being deaf was okay with the noise.
Son and his new lady are coming for lunch later.
Have a good day.
Lovely warm sunshine here and no rain .
The AGM of the flats management in later. I’ve persuaded my daughter to come so she can put faces to names in the future. The usually have a good buffet as well
I’m going to bring up the problems with fire alarms so see if anyone has any ideas
Just to let you know that I’m still here! It’s cool but largely dry here in Gower. There were lots of bangs from the organised fireworks on the green last night.
Hello . The fire alarm was on the agenda in the meeting yesterday . They said that we must all leave the building and go to the fire point at the bottom of car park and stay there until given the all clear . They said that they were worried about me putting myself in danger by phoning handiman and then going down to the foyer and checking where the fire was etc . So in future I must leave the building by the door outside my flat and then stay outside in safety . ?who would phone handiman or 999 There is no phone signal in Caswell and I am one of the few who has a land-line . So I don’t think so ??? How could I live with myself if I didn’t even try ??? I’m MAD xxx
That sounds like a lot of box ticking and not much common sense Jac, but perhaps it’s better to do as “they” say.
Finished up the accounts for Race Night which involved some head scratching but think it’s all done now. Trip to Brecon to bank the cash and take some odds and ends back to Morrisons. I ask you, a 40 odd mile round trip to go to the Bank. Grrr!
Peaceful day, not doing much. Enjoyed the match and then a meal with the family to celebrate Micky’s birthday. Feeling full now, watching the Festival of Remembrance at the Albert Hall.
Another awful day yesterday and a rotten night.Still got this hacking cough.Hope it goes by Wednesday,booked to see Joseph and his coat in Swansea’s Grand Theatre.Have seen it a few times but one of my friends has never seen it.
There will be a Remembrance service in the church opposite later,hope the rain stays away for the scouts to parade through the village.
Feeling so efficient, all the bedding out on the line before I shot off to Church for the Remembrance Day Service. Arrived there and got soaked by hail and sleet walking up the path and got home afterwards to discover that the clothes prop had collapsed and dropped all the washing on the floor! All back in the machine for a rinse and another wash. Didn’t bother putting it out again, it’s on the clothes horse in the conservatory.
Poor you Sue xxx

Finally gave in and went to doctor’s this morning.Have a chest infection on antibiotics,hope this will clear it soon.Thank goodness for Tenna ladies as the saying goes-“every time I coughs- I pees”!
Don’t think I’ll make the theatre on Wednesday.
