I’m leaving for Sheffield. I’ve walked the dogs and fed them and Trendy Carol’s hubby will be collecting them soon.
I’ve eaten a shop bought sandwich with my bucket of coffee because I hadn’t shopped and have just booked my hotel in a slighter rougher part of the city.
I’m travelling by train and should be ‘ome around 3pm.
This afternoon , I will meet my friend John who is dealing with an illness with all of the arch of Barbara Stanwick at her very best and Mike who deals with everything with a laid back attitude typical of a Yorkshireman who is seldom bothered about “ owt”
Tonight it’s theatre at the Crucible with Jane and tomorrow after a lie in Vince will pick me up and we will drive to see Kathryn for lunch in Derbyshire . I’ve known both since my student nurse days.
Hey ho
After all the shenanigans with the trains I was just about to give Aviva Trains a bashing , but a new 22 century train arrived on time and looked sleek and clean and fit for purpose.
I hope you enjoy "Standing At The Sky's Edge".
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend. Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI’m dying to know the post code!
ReplyDeleteNot judging; my most worthwhile supply teaching was in areas of Sheffield some of my neighbours claimed never to have visited.

DeleteYour off to a great start with a shiny train on time for departure. All is good. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI suspect you will be making some of us think about planning a little adventure as well. Enjoy your trip, as the boys in school used to say to us girls when then put a leg out to be stumbled over. Probably role reversal nowadays? Tess.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Weird thing, it won't allow my name to be published, l am many things but annonymous l am certainly not, says she being most put out!

So pleased for Trudy. With a friend like you to support her, I'm sure she'll make a good recovery. xx

I admire those who maintain a busy social calendar. You excel at that. I, on the other hand, need to do better. Enjoy!
