Fiona's Quiet Life

yes­ter­day i thought i had bet­ter get on with doing use­ful things like sort­ing out all my bits of paper and also sort­ing out all my mother’s bits of paper and dis­pos­ing of thou­sands of bits of paper that Basil kept for no reason so there are now wee piles of paper every where and bin bags full so paper to either shred or burn and a wee heap of paper that i really must get done for my income tax because the longer i keep put­ting it off the worse it seems in my mind.

but today i had another lovely day uptown with my niece, she was in Glas­gow to col­lect her young man’s pass­port and was to phone me when she was ready , so i went to John Lewis and did a little sale shop­ping then looked at my phone ..dead as a door knob.…..panic, so i rushed in the dir­ec­tion of the pass­port office and saw her com­ing in the other dir­ec­tion, which is amaz­ing con­sid­er­ing the thou­sands of people in Glas­gow every day.so we shopped till we dropped and then went for lunch in Princes square , so much food that neither of us could fin­ish our plateful.

the wed­ding din­ner was beau­ti­ful , there were 50 tables each seat­ing 10 people, a bag­piper piped in the bride and groom , it was a won­der­ful mix of a ceilidh and a Sikh wed­ding. i got slightly sad watch­ing the bride and groom dance , they are so in love and i missed my Basil, but we had a lovely mar­riage and i have great memor­ies so i refuse to be sad. .……and i danced with other ladies , i think i may get gain­ful employ­ment as a belly dancer.

but please .no more curry for a while
