So What's New?

A few things from the last couple of weeks.

Went tank driving for a start. Sara had bought me this as a Christmas present so seemed about time I went! Grandfer came along as well to see the vehicles and in theory to have a relaxing day. In fact it ended up baking hot and we had to walk about it so we were both done in at the end.


There has been the funeral of course, a sad day to be honest and a few tears were shed. I'm never any good at funerals and had really hoped to do a eulogy myself but am sure I would have blubbed too much so kept my thoughts to myself. In summary I would have talked about 'Blue blanky'. Dodo knitted this for Cameron when he was in the special care unit and it says much about her caring personality. She would always be there for you in her own way. Much missed.

Last weekend Pete and Tich were here and Flan came over for a cards night, with the usual collection of sweets on the table and betting going on.

Am now in Aberdeen again, here until the end of the week and then we have a Bank Holiday on Monday. I am toying with buying a Land Rover to play with - not sure where I'll keep it but guess we can worry about it another day; am going to see these two over the weekend. (For techies, one is a Range Rover chassis, V8, with a defender body and the other is a custom chassis, V7 with a funky lightweight body. Both pretty cool actually and seem good value which is the joy - both are tax exempt and should sell for the same as you pay for them so it's more like borrowing them!!)
