Packing things in

I am not giving up. But I am packing things in!!

Let me explain….

Thursday was another busy day. Up early to open the gate for Viktoriia, my delightful gardener, who arrives at 7.30; then kept my fingers crossed for the ‘Tracker Man’ to come ‘first thing’ and fit the tracker to the car. Ay up. My luck was in and he arrived at about 8.15. Good, eh?

A lot of pottering about in the morning ensued, with the laying out of clothes on the bed in the spare room, and the ticking off of items on my holiday list. Oooh….. I’m having a holiday!! Exciting!!!

I’m off to Turkey with my lovely friends, Margaret and Chris. They have a flat and, as they started to plan their holiday, they had the kind idea of inviting me along. What a wonderful treat.

On Thursday afternoon, I toddled across to Kenilworth for a haircut, and then continued on to Paul’s to discuss a bit of business. Funnily enough, I enjoyed the business chat and the company. Oh, and by the way, Paul, can I borrow a suitcase, please!? I need to pack!

After a swift bite to eat, it was Centre Stage for my last shift as The Prompt. Midsummer Night’s Dream Cast: you’re on your own now!!! I’m packing it in for a bit of a holibob!!

Naturally, on Friday morning, the borrowed suitcase was opened and filled. This was followed by a visit to the Bureau de Change to buy the country’s currency. Oooh….. All set.

The day was also filled with a visit to Pete and Dawn’s in the morning for a natter and a bit of furniture-shifting, with which Paul and Andrew ably assisted. And then in the afternoon, Andrew and I went to Michael and Danielle’s for tea. Nice.

See? I’ve been packing things in, maximising every minute of every day!

I think I’m going to need that holiday!!

Take care everyone.
