Odd day...

Started off quite dull, then went a bit overcast and breezy, then torrential rain at lunch time then the sun is cracking the flags right now. Weird! Vin went off to crosby this morning to get some things armed with his list. He said it was really quiet there and he got round easily. He was certainly back in record time for his coffee! I got yet another hospital appointment letter this morning! i thought it was for the Ultrasound department scan which had been redone for the 11th, and the girl had said she would send a letter out for. But no..this was for a Breast screening appointment all on the same day!!! the 18th july. i think it would be better if you had a one stop place where you went to like an MOT centre..just go along a conveyor belt and everyone gets a bit. So, that was..a gynaecology appt at 11.10, an ultrasound appt at 11.20 and now a breast screening at 11.40 in a totally different part of the district. No chance. Said it was an odd day. Wonder why these are all on the same day though. Vin is out in the garden doing a bit of fiddling around. At least he won't have to do any watering because of the downpour at lunchtime. Jane rang up just before lunch, she was on her way to work at Ticketmaster. She was chuffed because last night they were giving out extra hours if anyone wanted them. Something to do with tickets for the Olympics and day passes for those who live near the area. She put her name down for it, and left it till last minute because she said that they give time and a half at the last minute. Anyway last night they were doing double time..so she was thrilled with that.It's double the £6.80 she usually gets. She said they are going mental at the moment selling the tickets, mainly because they keep releasing more numbers.All good for jane though. As i am typing this, they are playing a neil diamond record Sweet caroline. i do love neil, reminds me of when we used to go on holiday in our Morris traveller to Scotland or Cornwall and we used to take a little black casset recorder balanced on the piles of luggage. Aaah., the cars didn't have tape players r radios then really.Do wish the DJs wouldn't talk over the end of the records though. steve Wright is terrible for doing that. Especially over the end of Nilssons Without her..drives me mad.

His hanging baskets are looking terrific at the moment. They don't seem to mind this funny weather. Tonight we are having: Small potatoes fried and sliced Something from the freezer the remaining veggies, green beans, broccoli and butternut squash.
