Fiona's Quiet Life

Mak­ing the bed.…from scratch.….….…AND after all the phone calls and hunt­ing down the miss­ing screws, when i finally put the thing together i did not need the extra screws it was a mis­print in the list of con­tents of the box. any­way it looks good and guests will have some­thing to sleep on.

I hoped i was at least slightly mem­or­able but this after­noon, the son of the man who fit­ted my en-suite bath­room sud­denly turned up at the front door with the mir­ror and said they had for­got­ten about me and were won­der­ing what the mir­ror was that was lay­ing about their work­shop. it is now fixed to the wall so i can see myself brush my hair at last.

tonight i went along to the queens park cam­era club, it was inter­est­ing and a nice jolly lot of people. they had a raffle and i won a bottle of wine, which was embarrassing .

a. because it was my brother-in –law who drew the ticket

and

b. i was not a mem­ber of the club.….….so i am now a mem­ber of the club .

so i shall soon have a photo ID card stat­ing that i am a ‘bona fide’ mem­ber of a cam­era club in case people won­der why i am pho­to­graph­ing pigeons in the park.

In the morn­ing i drive to Chip­pen­ham and the next day we all go to Centre Parks in Nor­mandy (France) meet­ing up with their old friends from when they lived in Glasgow.…..lots of very small chil­dren .…what fun.

so i may not be blog­ging for a few days
