Last week before moving!!


God, the last 24 hours have been fun!

We went to an absolutely awesome fireworks display last night! It was at a small village, but you would have thought we were at a big town event because it was SO GOOD! It was a free event, but the fireworks must have cost thousands, so God knows where the money came from. It was supposed to happen last week but they had to cancel it due to the weather, so maybe they’d made an extra effort to make up for the delay. They had the best home-made leek and potato soup I’ve ever tasted. Yum, yum and yum.

Then today I got to have a real go at a couple of stoners because they talked during the two-minutes silence at work. I really went to town on them and got a round of applause from the other shoppers around us!

Then this evening Philippa and I sat together and watched the tennis. It’s so rare for us to find something we both want to watch that we cuddled up with wine and made a night of it. Philippa calls tennis “badminton for poofs” but she seemed to enjoy it as much as I did. She was backing Nadal to win, while I had a feeling for Djokovic, so we added some spice to the occasion by making a bet. I won (well - Novak did) so now Philippa has to cook me a big breakfast tomorrow before work. Result!

A rhyming couplet:

Fireworks are my favourite thing
They warm my heart and make me sing
