This is a quick ... and merciful rendition of what I've been up to. It goes to the end of March. There will be more :-).
It's great to steal a few moments in the early morning to write a little bit about what has been going on in my life lately. It's been fun, it's been hectic, it's been absolutely insane!
Where do I start? Well, after my visit with Judi and George to Kate and Sean's in Newcastle in early February, there was my old Montreal boyfriend Ron Pickering's very brief visit in mid-February. He flew over for five days for his aunt's funeral (she was 92) and then stayed with Gill and me for a few days.
Then, Judi Ryan arrived for nine days in early March. She came over for Crufts dog show (she's a stay-at-home mother of 22 ... Irish Wolfhounds and Ibizans) and to see me. We had a lovely time together.
Right after Judi left (the day after), we had a Korean student for the weekend. She was on a homestay visit - an arrangement whereby foreign students are guests in English countryside homes.
Then, at the end of March, Kate and I had a four-day visit to Kingston as our dear friend Harry Lawson was in hospital and very ill. The good news is that Harry is now recovering. He's defied all the odds, thank goodness!!
That's enough about my activities for now. Here are a few photographs. The first photo is of Kate and Judi Ryan in a pub, poring over Kate's portfolio. The next one is of Gill, the Korean student, our friend Frank, and me. The third is our celebration of Kate's 31st birthday on February 16th. The fourth is a poor-quality photo of Ron and me at Heathrow Airport.
More later ....
