There had been rain overnight but it was almost dry by the time I came down for my first coffee. The day was such that the rain was never far away and we had showers throughout the day.
I worked my way through some ironing during the morning but was warned off Di's stuff, which she wanted to do. As I was finishing, Kim turned up. She was helping Zoe out by caring for Beau (the cat) while Zoe and Ellie were away. She was making the most of the peace and quiet to get some studying done in preparation for an exam she had scheduled for Friday. It was lovely to see her, and we had a couple of hours of chat before she left to go to Zoe's.
We heard from Zoe. She and Ellie were at the roller rink and Ellie was clearly a natural, being one of the only kids to be skating unaided, As we chatted, E`llie circled the rink and looked well-balanced and totally at ease.
Having completed most of our packing for tomorrow, Di and I settled down for some Kindle time. It was a bit too chilly for the Orangery so we sat in the lounge and read. Zoe phoned, again, she was trying to book an adventure but the WiFi signal wasn't strong enough to authorise her payment... Dad had to help out. So it looks as if they have some sort of treetop/zipline adventure scheduled for later in the week.
All but the last-minute packing is done.
