I have been busy and unfortunately have not managed to write a weekly personal blog so I will cheat a little and finish off my comings and goings for the end of March.
My son Paul was over from Shanghai and his friend Aayan joined us on a visit to Jill. They were pleased to see Grace, Stanley, Craig and Jill and the new house. Grace was pleased to see us. We had a lovely tea of fish and chips. Needless to say Paul always enjoys this when over here.
Also this week my back garden fence had blow down in the strong winds so I spent one day indoors while the fenceman mended it. A good job done ready for summer! I also did my ‘ladies that lunch’ outing and had lunch with four old school friends. Very nice.
On Saturday I went to a 60th, yes, 60th wedding anniversary of a friend. A terrific night thoroughly enjoyed by all.
On the Sunday I took my eldest grandchildren Ricky and Amy down to see Jill, Craig, Stanley and Grace. A good day and Ricky’s first time of seeing Stanley. Grace really enjoys company and loved playing chasing and hiding with them.
Monday was the choir concert. There was a big audience in fact the largest gathering we have seen. It all went off very well. The choir was in very good voice and the band was terrrific. We were appaulded and an encour requested so being true entertainers we obliged by repeating ‘You’re just too good to be true’! A great night!
Thursday I met my sister Joan at Victoria as she was coming to join me and our cousins and friends for a Easter weekend trip to Wales. We joined the coach on Good Friday morning and set off for Llandudno. Although very very cold we really had a good time. Snow was still lying on the hillsides in Wales and it was cold with a bittering wind. The hotel was a family run concern in the centre of town. Food excellent, staff friendly and kind and entertainment good. Was our lucky week as Joan and one other in our party won the bingo! Excursions took us to Snowdonia and surrounding areas and LLanfairpwllgwyngynngogerychwyrndrobwllantybliogogogoch!! A good fun break with plenty of laughs!
