After a particularly gruelling session at the Child Bereavement Charity , John and I went on to my cousin Robert’s house in Standlake ,for a lovely lunch .They really spoilt us .We came home armed with a ski jacket, home made chutney ,,jam ( we didn’t steal them , Louise gave them to us ) , and a lesson from Rebecca ,in how to use ebay effectively both to buy and sell – still not sure if I have the balls to put my bid in in the last second.( esp as Florence and I have that near bliss bid , when we typed in an extra 2 nought’s and bid £ 700 for a board game ),but apparently ,that’s the way to do it.
I haven’t liked to bleat on about it ,but Grandma hasn’t been too chipper lately .Yesterday Sarah ,Gro and I went to see her, followed by Victoria – she could barely say a word and slept for most of the time ( Grandma not Victoria ).But today she was a lot chirpier ( ditto ) when Sarah,Kristian,Thor,Frig and Gro went , followed by Avril, followed by Florence. She’s back to being a 3 cappuccinos a day girl.
Joan has been on my mind every day for the past few weeks. Please can you give her my love. I have a card here that I’m posting in the morning xxx
