Busy!

Life has been hectic recently!

At home, we are trying to complete our new bathroom before guests arrive in two weeks time. OK, this has been a long project, begun some five months ago, but somehow the obstacles preventing progress have been removed.

Except for a busy period at work and an impending OU assignment that is due - quite a critical one - and a wedding to pracice for, life is a breeze.

So after an early morning on a working weekend, we enjoyed an evening at local Houghton Hall, open for a musical soiree with a pianist, guitarist and harpist (yes, an unusual band, but no, they played in separate rooms) and a picnic, advertised on the West Lawn. Torrential rain meant we took refuge in an outdoor orangary and kept dry and whilst sitting sipping champagne (mock) whilst wet visitors trooped past I think we became the real eccentrics. Most enjoyable.

Once a few more of these things are out of the way I may have time for some creative writing. Maybe I'll start a blog ... !
