Saturday 7th July


Saturday 7th July
So much for my tennis game that I was going to play this morning, the weather scuppered those plans…..Instead more household chores, and then I ‘persuaded’ hubby that we really needed to go and buy a new washing machine (the old one sounds like a jumbo jet taking off when it goes into spin mode!!!) Now, be impressed with this next statement, I even found the original paper work from the old machine which we bought in 1997 and cost us £617.00!! That was a lot of money, but considering it has worked on average twice a day (four children, one grubby farmer) for 15 years it’s done very well!!

Anyhow, whilst at the Grande Marche we had to food shop at the same time, luckily we got out before the ‘world and his wife’ turned up! (And it’s now been tested, you really cant push a trolley UP the escalator…….or down for that matter…..

Meanwhile back at the ranch…….the new bedroom carpets are being laid, and they do look (and smell) lovely! In-between all this i managed to watch the ladies single final at Wimbledon, thought it might all be over in an hour, but fortunately it turned out to be a good match.

Now as we are out this evening at a groovy 80th birthday party this post is being put out early as there is little chance of me writing ANYTHING when we get back………..
