Watch out there's a Humphrey about.
This will be brief - but then there is little to say about the day.
We both dithered about the wisdom of going to Ford on such a cold morning. The sun shone and we regretted not being down there.
But we didn't waste our time at home.
I photographed over 30 items ready for EBay descriptions and later listed 9 things - not books or postcards, like I normally have. There is a mixed bunch of objects.
The army cap with its badge already has watchers as does the Unigate Dairy milk bottle top with a dial to order the number of pints you want from the milkman. The message that was a bit of a catch phrase is written on the top.
There are 3 watchers on this already!
Bill has been round the house with the vacuum cleaner. But the machine failed. It needs a new cable and switch - which were located on a website and so should arrive during next week for Bill to fit.
As I described the items for Ebay, I chatted with Jamie and Mam on line.
Saturday is Jamie's day off and they had been to the beach bar again for lunch.
I look forward to taking Bill there in May.
Jamie sent some photographs and I have included one with him - just to show that he is not looking bad - despite the extra weight which I have commented on to a few folks. In fact you look good Jamie - just buy a bike and do a few circuits of the reservoir!
We had a roast dinner this evening. I couldn't think of second helpings of roast potatoes - my digestion is just too fragile. Bother it!
We shall have an early night and hope that we can enjoy some clear skies tomorrow, though the forecast is for a very cold night - well below freezing.
If it is truly too cold we shall pop to the Dorking boot sale. If it looks like it could feel OK and the roads might be safe enough we will go to Fontwell and Chichester and have breakfast in Bognor.
