Surprised?

This turned up today addressed to Colin and although it looked familiar I couldn't work out where it had come from. About 9pm the light finally dawned, there had been a coupon in the Christmas Radio Times for it if I paid postage. So I did and here it is and Isobel will be very pleased I think.

Ali is coming to stay with us for a couple of days while S has a heavy cold. She is of course bringing Josie too , so we're going to be enjoying being grandparents full time.

I did a quick raid on the supermarkets and spent the afternoon cooking. A pot of chicken and vegetable soup for S to give him some good nourishment, a fish pie for us for dinner tonight (it was very good if I do say so myself) and a bolognaise sauce for tomorrow night. I do like cooking lots of things at once and trying to remember which spoon goes in which pot!
We both had a vestry meeting tonight, so sadly no bridge.
After quite a pleasant morning, when the sun felt warm, it's been really cold today. Still what do I expect in January.
