I can’t remember too well what happened in the day, except that Petrus came round to survey the house for a new aerial. I ended up kicking around most of the day as I wasn’t told that he was running late – one of my pet things – there is no reason these days to keep other people hanging around … Anyway, he at least came up with a fairly easy plan which should keep Tom happy as well as helping me rearrange the house over the next few months.
Off to see Billie and Farouk for dinner in the evening! They had just returned from a two week island hopping holiday in Greece and Billie was keen to try out a few things they’d eaten! Scrummy! There was lots to chat about – but as always the conversation reverted back to Clipper – this happens with everyone I meet. It’s not that I really mind – just that it becomes a bit boring, as if I have nothing else to talk about. Billie is very sensitive about this though – unlike others I dread bumping into! There are lots of places and people I would prefer not to see for a year, as they will just make me cry.
