Not much to report

 It was a quiet day. I was up just before seven, and Di followed me downstairs ten minutes later. We had a quiet breakfast, and then Di went to prepare for Pilates.

She left at 9:30, and I settled down with the accounts. I have started to consider how to improve the spreadsheet for next year. I haven't started creating it, but I am starting to review it with a view to the future. Once the accounts were finished, I started on a pile of ironing. It was while I was in the middle of this that the phone rang. It was Zoe. "Dad, are you at home? Can you come round?" That sounded ominous. "Is everything ok?" I asked. "Oh yes, I've just had my new carpet fitted, and I wanted to show someone." And so it was that I found myself walking to Zoe's to see her new carpet. I must say that it does look very nice.

By the time I arrived home, I still had some ironing to finish, and then started preparing the vegetables for our lunchtime soup. Di arrived back home just as the soup finished cooking. Timed to perfection!

We had a quiet afternoon until Ellie turned up with Poppy. Ellie will be staying overnight as Zoe doesn't finish until nine or ten.
