  • Hmm. The fields to the west of Arkland have been duly be-pooed, but I'm not especially keen on the smell...

    Each to their own, of course.

    We just had a very brief light rain shower in London. First precipitation I've seen in months! If I hadn't been in a meeting discussing the difference between margin and profit I'd have gone outside and done a Snoopy happy dance in it.

    It's stopped now.

    Eldest Beaky daughter and children are as I write being dropped by Husband Beaky at Gatwick airport to begin their LONG journey home to the Far North of New Zealand.
    She is returning to a very difficult situation so saying goodbye has left me feeling anxious and in all honesty a little bit desolate.
    But we have made some truly wonderful memories together as a whole family and for that I am very thankful indeed!

    Trip to the town for hearing checks. Mrs Sioni in first at her soft-spoken daughter’s prompting(nagging). Turns out she does have hearing loss in the conversational frequencies, so another test for hearing aids in a couple of weeks. That should have been followed by my annual check, but someone arranged it for next Tuesday, so we shall be in town at least twice more.

    Oh, and Mrs Sioni took a couple of rings to a jeweller, one for resizing (not cheap) and another for a new stone. The goldsmith will make recommendations so we could end up investing in rock.
