Trying to catch up! More later.

Saturday, 17th May
Pageant excellent and very well attended. Slightly different from last year, but just as good. Kate and Jonathan enjoyed it too. Kate came in for cup of tea and she chatted to Jonathan about books. She was quite surprised at how well read he was for a fourteen year old.Took Jonathan to Band coffee morning in Town Hall. where he bought loads of books and a super telescope with stand etc. We had good fun trying it out, but not a very clear night.

Friday 16th May
Went to B&Q yesterday with Bobby to look at paint for the kitchen. Haven’t been there for ages and it seems enormous to me now. Glad to get home as feeling pretty sore. Bobby had a look at my Hoover/Dyson, which was on the blink, so took it home to have a look.However brought it back. It was fine. Should we say “Dysoning” now instead of “Hoovering” I wonder?
