Day 1139 104 weeks and counting

22nd September 2020

It was our actual second wedding anniversary, so it was a great day to start with, we had agreed to have dinner with Mike and Lesley at our new found Indian Restaurant.

We exchanged cards, of course Kelli’s was much better than mine because she has a good way with words. Last year we were three thousand miles apart, it was a miserable time, for both of us.

The weather was good, in fact this week is the last period of pleasant temperatures for the year, so we made every opportunity to enjoy it.

I was determined to build some stock to allow me to make a start on the patio.

We completed a small dresser and dragged it inside to take pictures. Kelli was quick to post it as the last piece did not attract much interest at all. This is the first time we’ve had a slow month, considering it started out okay.

We were picked up at five, they like to have an early dinner which catches us out because we were oblivious to what the time was, and Kelli needs a sufficient time to get ready.

We navigated the roadworks, as there nearly always is on the highway, and we cursed at the motorists that flaunt the reducing lanes rule by trying to force their way in at the last minute, causing emergency braking and more often than not, minor prangs.

We passed a couple of stoves in boots and punctured radiators, and irate drivers trying to deal with it.

We got to the restaurant in good time, it is an easy place to find, and the staff always remember Lesley as she makes a big fuss over them.

We ordered our starter and main course and toasted each other with our glasses of Cabernet, now the fun begins.
