Supportive siblings

Early start today. Need to be on the banks of the Thames for a mid-morning meeting.

The Silver Vixen is taking Cousteau-cub across to stay with Urban-cub. The latter is still off-work becuase of her back. She's feeling bored, but can't do much at present.

Interesting meeting throughout the morning... and bumbed into the Mighty Atom while I was there. Didn't chat for long, but was nice to see him. Urgent "secret squirrel" meeting set up for late afternoon so headed home to conference in.

The Silver Vixen wasn't feeling too good when I got in and has cancelled her pilates class tonight. She couldn't put her finger on what was wrong... just "not quite right". She phoned Betty and Barney Rubble during the afternoon... Betty's op seemed to have gone well, but Barney's cold seems to have knocked him for six.

Miss Ellie made contact. She had been off sick on Friday. She's still poorly, and is unlikely to be back to work for a fair few weeks. Poor chick. She will need a less stressful role on her return so I'll need to find a replacement for her. Important thing, though, is that she gets better.

Interview/chat with Parish Council tonight. Had to drive to the meeting as I wasn't sure where the house was... turns out it was at our end of Coastal Road, and i could've walked there in a third of the time it took me to drive. Councillors seemed very nice, and the "discussion" pretty informal. There' a public meeting of the council on Thursday, that I am welcome to attend, and the successful candidate will be announced a few days later.
