Friday 27th April
Had a right royal ticking off from my aunt, I have
trouble with punctuation at the best of times, and when I started this blog I
didn’t envisage so many people reading it, least of all her who ‘hates’
computers and before last month would only switch her PC on once a week! So
after an English lesson (she was a teacher) I was warned I had better start ‘pulling
my socks up’ and taking more care of apostrophes (or is that apostrophe’s!! Joke)
and such like!!
Goodness, this is high stress levels; I dare not think of
EVERYONE else who is out there, who catch up on my mundane comings and goings
around this lovely Island of ours-too scary by far!!
A lovely walk with
my Trinity friend around Queens Valley, twice, (well we had a lot of catching
up to do and once around wasn’t long enough!) plus I need to get some ‘training’
before our Diabetes walk next Saturday.
Treated to lovely tea and a cake at Ransoms (twice in 2
days) I needed the sustenance before I steeled myself to visit Waitrose, yet
MORE food shopping.
An appointment with the hair dresser this afternoon
proved enlightening. I took along Ursula and Shirley (my 2 wigs), so she could ‘view
and assess’. In the beginning I received lots of helpful advice and suggestions
at ways that the wigs could be worn, cut, or slightly altered. Generally a sympathetic
ear, however this was short-lived, and the ‘true’ colours were shown. Later when
my hair was being trimmed (references to ‘poodles’ odd shaped heads etc.), it
transpires that as I won’t have any hair, she will in effect not receive any business
from me- well it went downhill from there!! Back to the usual derogatory
remarks and cheekiness!! Its ok we parted friends, and despite this I highly recommend
her as a first rate hair dresser!
Race for Life .......Thank you, thank you, over £2000.00 WOW
Comments on blog, comments on RFL .....Priceless!
Another thick moment of mine....RFL....with all the sport going on today (Saturday)I was thinking "what does she mean? Rugby football league?" What a dooooooofus I am! Brilliant amount! I was going to put two exclamation marks there, but Aunty Betty would frown on that I'm sure, tee hee.
ReplyDeleteO golly-english was not one of my best subjects so I am going to have to think hard before i write now! Must have been lovely walking around queens valley yesterday. Forecast not so good for today-very windy so could be good for my boys who are sailing this morning. Fantastic amount raised for Race for life. xxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteNot sure if "her who 'hates' computers" shouldn't be "she who 'hates' computers" with some kind of comma or something! Help Auntie Betty! We need you!,
