TGIF again

Phil Beer

Oh how the days and weeks are racing by.

Tonight is our folk club with Phil Beer as our star for the night. He is brilliant and will give us a cracking night's music. I just hope he finds us ok and we get set up in plenty of time as we are sold out.

Recapping events of the last week or so...
I had a fairly quiet weekend and Monday came all to soon.
I took my blind friend Linda to Bournemouth Airport Monday morning. She was off to Switzerland for a week visiting her brother. I'm picking her up next Monday.
Monday night is pub quiz night and last Monday it was just 3 of us. James and Jenny would have won the picture quiz but were -1 for winning the week before, so came 2nd. We managed to win the main quiz with a solid 38/40, beating the second team by 2 points so we'll be -2 next week! Not bad going for a reduced team :) We shared the £25 prize.
My son had decided to get himself a new TV and offered Jenny his not-so-old one. We picked it up Tuesday night and decided to have fish n chips for dinner, so when we got home we left the tv in the car and went in to eat. We both forgot all about the tv so jen went off to work Wednesday morning leaving me with a big tv in my car. I made it secure and covered the boot space with the pull-over cover with a view to getting Jenny to take it in when she got home. I walked Honey down the road so didn't use the car. Jen came home and .. well yes .. we forgot the TV again! She was off early Thursday morning so, after I'd put out the re-cycling bin, I managed to lift the TV out of the car and put it by the bins for Jen to bring in later.
I walked Honey at Baiter park by the harbour side and she had a good time meeting friends.

Happy Honey

We met Lenny who is a greyhound cross with identical colouring to Honey. He loves Honey and she likes him so there was a lot of vigourous tail wagging and even a few excited squeaks from Lenny. He is such a happy smiley dog with a real grin. I had a chat with his owners. Solo the standard poodle arrived to say his hellos so we all moved on.
Jen finally managed to bring in the TV when she got home.
Thursday was folk club night and this week it was just John and me. Eileen and Ann are away for the weekend in their camper van, and with Linda in Switzerland, it was a car for two, not 5 as usual.
Today (Friday) I have spent mostly getting everything ready for the club tonight. Tickets printed, posters organised, raffle sorted, emails sent etc etc. It will be a busy night!
I finished up my crab in a baguette with some lettuce and salad cream - mayo is too bland and the sharp tang of the salad cream is ideal with crab. It was a lovely crusty roasted onion baguette from the co-op (£1 for 4).
It's John's birthday Sunday and I'm taking him and Roz out for dinner.
otherwise it looks a fairly quiet weekend again.
Have a good one yourself xx
