I was up early to greet Ellie as she was dropped off. She charged into the house and threw herself at me. It's a lovely start to the day. After the usual morning protocol, we walked her to school and left her in the classroom. Diane headed home for breakfast, and I went for my morning walk.
Much of the morning was spent on admin tasks, the most important of which was to update the accounts after the holiday. It was nice to find that we had each won small sums on the Premium Bonds.
AT our last Band of Brothers lunch, we got talking about one of our number who emigrated to the USA. We had heard that he had passed away but I agreed to try and find out something more definitive. I wrote to his cousin and was delighted to hear back that he was still alive, living in Pennsylvania, and has a number of nephews running his bars for him.
After lunch, Diane had to go to Chichester for a dental appointment (regular checkup). I settled in the lounge with my Kindle and ploughed on towards the end of my current book (I should finish it tonight). I had to go and collect Ellie from school, but unfortunately, it was raining so we skipped the park and came straight home. Did had just arrived back as we approached the house and rushed across to greet her.
Zoe finished early, so Ellie was picked up before 16:00 and we had a quiet 45 minutes before I started on dinner.
