Did I complain about teenage sons? well I take it all back, I definitely could not cope with them if they were young again. My Young Friend has been staying, and she is truly a joy, but playing follow-my-leader has seriously done for me and I need to lie down for a week.
Her, her mum and I gaily sailed off down the street before being told it was time for follow-the-leader again. We were penguins, aeroplanes, ducks, funny walkers & jumping kangaroos and I was knackered. We made it into the Co-op where, leaning heavily on the counter, I Told the cashier about Homeopathy for Health in Africa - she was very supportive.
Next we skipped off to the local museum to enjoy the oddities of Olney. On the way out I Told both people in the museum shop, and has a nice little chat about it; but it was now time for tea & cake. And yesterday it was Baking Day in the Tea Shop so we were able to launch into new delights. Looking up from my plate for a minute, I noticed the lady next to us (probably wondering if I was half starved). I started chatting to her and found that she was a visitor to town, so recommended a few highlights of Olney as well as Telling her about my volunteering.
We got back home (without getting soaked this time), the car was loaded and I waved good bye to the darling duo. Walking slowly back inside, I considered just how much cake I have eaten in the past few days before flaking out on the sofa. (I think I need to cut down).
