Booked

 Zoe had an early start again today, so I was up at 6:30 to greet Ellie when she was dropped off. We had a brief cuddle before she had come round sufficiently to go up and say good morning to Nana. We dropped her off at school as usual. I headed off for my pre-breakfast walk and soon came to the end of my audiobook. I shall miss that book it had an interesting storyline and provided plenty of nostalgia (being set in the mid-1950s). I already had another book lined up and within a few seconds, I was transported from the Wye Valley (in the last book) to Amsterdam (in the new book).

After about an hour, I headed home for breakfast and to await the knock from Sainsbury's to deliver our weekly shopping. When I reviewed our list for the week, I decided it was a two-trolley list, and it would be easier to have it delivered. The agent knocked at the door and seven crates of shopping made their way into the kitchen. 

Once the shopping was stowed away, I set about some admin tasks. The accounts were updated and then I contacted the travel agent who has been handling the details for our cruise in September. I had to pay off the balance of the fare in the next few days so decided to clear it up today.

After lunch, we had the usual Kindle time (I'm in Cornwall on the Kindle) and then went to collect Ellie from school. When we got home, I set about gathering estimates and quotes for the transfers to and from the cruise terminal in September. This took an hour or so, but in the end, I selected the company we usually use for holiday transfers. That's all confirmed.
