another day

on Monday,I went into Oxford with a couple of friends from Catenians and we had a lovely meeting and dinner at the very posh Four Pillars Hotel in Sandford, on the Henley road. .Got home about midnight. Tuesday I went into Thame first to post some of Julian's books on his instructions, then to collect a re stitched leather suit zip bag (Fay's) which had come undone and then to the bank to make some alterations to my accounts.
Then had a walk round and through the much larger Farmers market. I had a hot chocolate drink in the Co-op cafe then went into new Sainsbury's then into Martins (The Post Office), then to John the Stitcher to collect Fay's leather bag, then into Waitrose to use their toilet, then into the bank, where I knew nobody and nobody knew me. Then I met Mrs Glendinning, who told me the Steeles were on holiday, so didn't see them.
Then I went to Ken and Jean's bungalow, met Neil ( now a screen standin for Mr Bean) , Ken and Jean and Ken's elderly cousin. Stayed there yarning for a couple of hours and THEN came home along the M40 in pouring rain. I like m/ways as you haven't got to keep to a speed limit, unlike other journeys through country roads where there are speed cameras.(as I know to my cost)
Yes I am a bit stiff after my long ride with Steve, Cath, but it WAS nice to be with him and he does love his landy (makes him feel like a farmer with his dogs and flat cap)
Nice to hear from Pete that you all had a good time in Forty Green, and that you were able to see the sea, in wet Wales. Good luck with the shed, Cath. Love to all. DAD
