It's one of those days here where were you shop really matters... you know do you walk about with an RMKV (posh) carrier bag on your head or one from the local grocers which has no name on it? That's right folks it's raining again. It really makes me smile to see men in suits wearing carrier bags on their heads, some roll them down so they are at least short, others wear them full height like a chefs hat or something.
I just wish folk would stop telling me how much I must be enjoying this nice cool weather... nice cool is fine (it's not though) wet is horrible! I hate having open 'Jesus' type sandals on for those of us of a certain age, and walking through yucky muddy puddles! I got to Kovalum tomorrow to pick up Maggie, Mrs Lydia was warning me yesterday that I should be careful as there had been something on the news last week to say the sea was rough and Enoch them chipped in with the fact that a girl had been murdered in Goa and that I should be careful of that too. I promised I would but not sure how to keep that promise!
I had a busy day at school today and for once Metilda was with me all morning and when the morning break bell went at 11.20 was shocked at how quickly the morning had gone. For once everyone had turned up on time so we had fitted in 3 kids, sometimes only one gets done. After break it was time for water play again... a prediction of the rain to come as it turns out. We used washing up liquid again, I just pour it in without telling them and watch as they discover that splashing fills the bowl with bubbles and foam!
I'm having a fairly quiet night in tonight getting organised for going to Kovalum after school tomorrow. Enoch is coming round with the last 2 articles for the book and then that is all done... hurray!
I ma rapidly going off the physio who told me today that when he was old like me he too would need to take a rest more often.... just 'cos I'm twice his age doesn't mean I'm old does it?
