contrasting weekends

21 september
im so rubbish at keeping a blog, must try harder.
Last weekend was a nightmare, I went to visit victoria, told her she shouldnt be living in my house etc,
all because it would have been our 20th wedding anniversary the previous week, and i had planned a nice night out but all 3 friends called off at the last minute, so i didnt cope very well.

i managed to pull myself together for monday, back at work, and for tuesday when I went on a first date with Paul, we walked in the rain and then had a few drinks at the sportsman inn.

anyway, this weekend is much better, I was supposed to be meeting welsh paul in chester, we haven't met for 40 years!! but he has an appointment to view a flat in aber, so had to cancel. I decided to travel over to cheshire on friday night, which was fine except my packing was rushed.

Millie poohed in the lounge and then weed in the kitchen. thats the first time she has done anything like that, i hope she's ok. poor cari had to clear it all up. mim is dogsitting for me tonight, i hope millie behaves herself for her.

Anne and I made chutney this morning, green bean, green tomato and green courgette chutney. it looks fine, I hope it tastes ok. then anne and I went to a fungus foray in marbury park, but the guy running it said he wouldn't tell us which were edible, so we left them to it and went blackberrying, and picked some apples. then i bought some big garden pots and two fruit trees from the nursery there, a williams pear and a verte plum
we're off to the pictures this afternoon.

uncle was 90 in the summer, i suppose i could have sent him a birthday card, but didn't think, and no-one told me it was a BIG birthday, that makes me sad.
