I just “so happened” to bump into Chic Eleanor in Rhuddlan today . She had her winter black pashmina on and had take out sandwiches and coffee from  The Old Crown at the castle  tucked under her arm. “ Darling John” she called from her car......and my heart lightened  We walked up to Twt Hill ( the site of a Norman Castle Keep) and talked and ate on opposite sides of a long bench. I needed to see her today. She brightened me Like a heat lamp This afternoon, I set up my new desk in my office in the East Wing and I’m really pleased with the set up. I’m just waiting for a proper office chair and mini filing cabinet to arrive. Dorothy was unhappy that I was late with her afternoon walk so pissed on the carpet in way of a tantrum  Tonight in the Big Gay Quiz , my fellow competitors, Colin, Zack, Colin , Phil and Mavis came 3rd out of 14 groups ..... great fun ... from Going Gently https://ift.tt/2O2zSHu

 Message left on village Facebook page this morning, it amused me “ Folks There will be a drone flying over the school and possibly the hall on Saturday Morning. We are checking the condition of the roof. If you are sunbathing in the garden before 9:00 am please wear a rainbow towel to show support for the NHS Dave Smith” from Going Gently https://ift.tt/3qS2xxv

  I’m waiting for my desk to be delivered.  I have a four hour window, so the dogs have been walked early and with the cottage windows open to the sunny frost, I am sitting on vigil with homemade sourdough eggy bread and my bucket of coffee. It’s Friday isn’t it?  Oh yes......I’ve got an uncharacteristically busy day. Desk delivery this morning , then a car park coffee with Chic Eleanor at lunchtime “ Darling John I may even treat myself to a very naughty donut!” Eleanor texted excitedly. This afternoon, it’s a team meeting at work c/o zoom which probably will be a bit of a bunfight .  My role at the hospice will change slightly soon as I will be covering our community Hospice @ Home initiative as well as some time in the in patients department. The staff meeting was my idea. Tonight is the The Big Gay Quiz ..... if I can set up my desk, that’s where I will quiz from  Hey ho. from Going Gently https://ift.tt/3r1QXzW
