Getting ready for our visitors on Sunday afternoon. It is surprising how much dust collects, particularly when you have an open fire and two cats. Bobby seems to be mouting really badly at the moment for some reason, and there are clumps of white fur all over where she goes, which is pretty much wherever she wants to. I do have to admit that I can't see the dust really so I live in blissful ignorance.In truth the eyesight is a bit like looking through a net curtain permanently, so the dust blends in i suppose, HaHa.
We did quite a bit this morning, between waiting for a postman to bring the parcel that wasn't delivered yesterday. That was a pair of earrings that I had ordered in murano glass, but in the event I didn't really l;ike them so have sent them back. felt a bit guilty about that because of the faff over the delivery. Poor Vin has such a lot to put up with.
Our visitor used to live in Hightown when he was a child in a house two doors down, and the last time he came someone gave him a copy of a book that had been written about the village. At the back of the book, was a photograph of an aerial view of old Hightown before all of the changes, and he really wanted a copy of the photo for his study. Turned out that the photo belonged to a resident in a road round the corner, so Vin went round to see her this afternoon, and had quite a chat with her. Came back with three photos which we will get copied tomorrow. he will be thrilled with those. The other thing he wanted to do was have a look round his old house so Vin was in the garden this morning doing some trimming and had a word with our neighbour, she said it would be fine, so that was sorted as well. He done well today didn't he!
Fairkly windy today but more of a strong breeze than anything. Really tipped it down at lunchtime, just as vin was going round the corner, and it went really cold too. What a strange country we live in weather wise, you just can never tell what it is going to do.
Tonight we are going to have:
Burger Puffs..a quornburger wrapped on a thin coat of puff pastry and baked
little baby potatoes sliced and sauteed,
A small tin of something tomatoey.
