Monday 18th April 2016
Up early.  dog walked, papers fetched.  Into office for about 8am after watering stuff and what have you.   Busy, stressful day.  Back home for 6.30.   Dog walked. Tea.  Fixed coat hooks back up on wall with Phil.  Bit of this and that in the greenhouse.  Watched Vinyl - that program is putting me a bit on edge now too!!    Bed for a bit after ten pm.

Tuesday 19th April 2016
Up earlier.  5.20am  Dog walked, papers fetched back home for 6.15am to wake Lucy up so she can do some Art homework.   Bit of a frost so there is.  Greenhouse then into the office for 7.45am.  Rest of the day : where to start Lucy brought home a brilliant repor,t, she is a star in some ways - but not when we're still doing homework at 12:30.  Allotment Association AGM - some great news - can take well-behaved dogs onto the allotment - if only I can get Lily well-behaved we will be in with a shout!!

Wednesday 20th April 2016
Up early.  Dog walked, papers fetched, into the office for 8.20 after dropping Lucy off at school - all good stuff.

Thursday 21st April 2016
In that London.  Up at 3:45.  Dog walked, showered, at Derby Station and on the 5.19 train to that London.   Seminar at 9am.

How odd is this bit of architecture in the middle of offices all over the shop.



  On train back at 2:30, home for a bit after 5pm.  Bit of a nightmare on the train as it had two trainloads of people following some poor soul throwing themselves under the East Coast Line's train so we had a ton of Geordies along for the ride - bedlam.  Tea then dog walk, Down to lotty, barrowed up some more wood chippings for paths on number 13.   Cleared out another bed ready for Autumn Caulis going in.   Banged a load of lime down ready.

Tulips coming soon on number 7.

Peas looking tidy on number 13

Peas are coming along nicely considering how damn cold it's been.


Friday 22nd April 2016
Still knackered but woke without alarm at 5:30 (Jack Reacher'esque).  Dog walked, papers fetched, caulis outside hardening before going in tonight.  Went down lotty after work and got some cauliflowers in.

Saturday 23rd April 2016
Up early.  Papers fetched, dog walked.  7.50am off to that Wales for a weekend in Llandudno.  Got there and parked up by 10.40 - £4.50 for 4 hours!   Never mind.  Walked to the end of the pier - saw a dogfish reeled in, then went round the shops then to the Palladium for lunch.

Went and had a look at the hotel.  Then went to have a look at the Great Orme.  Fantastic views up there and the missus enjoyed climbing up from the car park to the cafe and what have you at the top.   Had a coffee, boss had an ice cream then back to town.  Parked in the side street near the hotel and got checked in.  Out again for tea - very nice.   Bed about 10pm - very tired.

Sunday 24th April 2016
Up early - no dog to walk.  Bit of a walk on the prom.  Then brekoo.  Then packing up ready to check out.  Then more shopping.  Then a bit of drive along the coast saw the Little Orme, then Penrhyn Bay,  Then another little town that I'll have to work out where it is!   Set off back proper and on way home stopped off at Cheshire Oaks designer outlet at Ellesmere Port for more retail therapy for the missus.   Talk about busy!   Back home about 4pm ish,  Dog pleased to see us - two dog walks before going out for tea at Okeover Arms.  Cracking.  Bed Early - Game of Thrones Series 6 coming!
