Up on the roof

 

My dad's 90

Just thought I'd mention it. And Mum's 89 in November. 

Another visitor comes and goes

This little fellow spent some time in the kitchen, managed to open a few packets of crisps but the cheese was in the fridge. Just as everything went quiet at about 11:30pm he'd start scampering around somewhere between one wall and another. For several days I had no idea how he got in or out but I finally met him late one night when, in need of a coffee at about 1am we both surprised the hell out of each other! He was happily gazing out from a gap between the washing machine and the work surface and looking a bit miffed at my not having replenished the right flavour of crisps or left any cheese in an accessibile position. Anyway, that was the last I saw of him until he popped up in the hedge, not exactly where you'd expect but, as I said or shall say depending on which order you read these things in, there are some strange things happening in the village these days.

From 9DP to 9DN

Finally moved the family from one part of Great Holm in MK to another. Not as pointless as it seems as the new place has an annexe which I can use as a studio and if I sell the Astcote place then I'll have somewhere to go. It's also an option for Mum or Dad should it be needed. Finance looks dreadful but not much I can do about that. Just think of me if you need anything written, drawn, photographed or put on the web, eh? Oh, and I can do e-learning too.

New address is 12 Hatchlands, Great Holm, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire MK8 9DN and I'll send a change of address card eventually. Phone number the same: 01908 565610. You'll still find me in the village, though. For a while, at least.
