Friday 14th July 2023

Friday at last.

First week of being in charge, and as has always happens, the sky will always fall in on a Friday.

Like that time when I was duty armourer in the dump at Marham and the USAF crashed a nuclear convoy on the roundabout at Kings Lynn.

That was a Friday, just after the grown ups had gone home.

Or when there was the emergency evacuation from Albania when their pyramid scheme failed and there was going to be civil war.

That was a Friday too.

And on this Friday, well, the sky fell in again. And who is in charge? Muggins here.

So, meeting after meeting after meeting all on the same thing, which once the third one happened that I was already aware of the problem, helped.

That sorted out. life went back to normal, or as close to normal as this life can be,

Other than that, well, bins, breakfast, coffee, lunch and finish at three. And although it was bright enough, too windy for much macro, so I did other things like sit in the garden with Scully and edit more shots.

As this is the last weekend Sylv is down here, we went over to Jen's early, even of the early start on cards didn't happen because of tennis. And the weather meant that the men-s semmis took place one after each other rather than the same time, so when we arrived at half five, Jen and Sylv were watching the second match.

From where I sat, the ball was invisible, so it looked like the two players were throwing themselves around the court for no reason at all, while the crowd oohed and aahed.

After supper of pizza, we played cards. John won. Again.

By which time it was the weekend.
