...Hilts, the Cooler King...........

This little bugger spent most of last night auditioning for a remake of The Great Escape..........every time the conservatory door was opened he shot through it like a guided missile...........and then refused to come back in. He had to be herded back in with a stick...........it was like herding.............well, cats. Normally he takes five steps outside and then darts back in!

Today was a busy day........as well as the normal tasks............the place needed tidying as Shaun and Cath were coming to visit...........and I  had to watch the Hull v United game. United got the winner in the 93rd minute............I actually felt sorry for Hull......they have the smallest squad in the Premiership........and they defended magnificently..........until that last minute..........but a win is a win.

Shaun and Cath arrived just after 8.00............we drank some wine, beer....even tea.............and we talked...............mainly about the last 18 months.........and Helen............and my latest news from the neurologist. They left just after 11.00..............I  loaded the dishwasher..............made a mug of hot chocolate...........and went off to bed...........feeling more up than down.

Thanks for a lovely evening.
