Wednesday.

Got up before six o'clock this morning, as Ann taking early service, and self reading lessons.Bite of breakfast, then into car and drove across to Bury St. Edmund's. Eventually drove on to Brandon where we met up with old school friend Roy and his wife Janet, and had lunch at refurbished Brandon House Hotel, which was (the lunch, that is) dissapointing.  As also was, I'm sorry to say, the refurbished hotel. A year ago the hotel was down at heels, but welcoming. It is now - well I'm afraid the phrase 'cheap and cheerful' springs to mind, although it's not particularly cheap. The staff are still doing their best to be welcoming, and it's a convenient place for the four of us to meet up, so we'll probably give it another try in a few months, but unless it's improved in the meantime, we'll then have to find somewhere else.  On the way home we stopped of in Bury St. Edmund's again, bought a few bits in garden centre, then had a cup of tea and a long chat with our old friend Joan. Got home just before 6 o'clock.  Just changed into workshop scruff and must do some work. More later perhaps, depending how work goes.
