Final Fling

We run trains every day for seven months of the year here on the Talyllyn.  Today is the last day of the season.   Here No 1, Talyllyn, rushes through Rhydyronen with a special.  There's some filming going on this week so there will be the odd train running but no paying passengers.  

Breakfast at Jamie's - could be a regular Sunday thing now I think - before a walk with him, Bella, C and the Megs.  My Meg got extra exercise chasing the train from our side of the hedge!   After dropping Jamie at his place I stopped in at Pottery to turn and trim the two pieces I threw on Thursday.   These are now drying at home where I have just attached a handle to the mug.  As yesterday, there was one other potter there.  It's nice to chat one-to-one sometimes :-)

Back home to meet K, the builder and get quotes for a couple of jobs.  One definitely gets the green light, the other, tree work is more costly than I expected so I will see if I can get a better quote.  Job has to be done so it's just a matter of checking prices first.   

The rest of the day has slipped away with chores, making space for Ruth to visit and a little more clay play.   Almost sorted the tidying now, a late night outing for Henry hoover and I'll call it a day.   Off to collect Ruth in the morning, hopefully with a last walk with C and the Megs before they too head off home on Tuesday.
