A Day Out

 

Cormorant at Budby Flash

As days go, it was much the same as many other days. We did the same thing we had done one Wednesday a month ago, and in a similar drifting fashion, We really should, as we also said last time, plan our Wednesdays better.

The only thing of note was that Julia was woken by a phone call. One of her clients is in trouble with the  police. It woke me too, but I managed to fall asleep before the end of the conversation.

We went to the gardens to check on something Julia thought she might have forgotten to do on Tuesday, but she hadn’t. My life gets more and more like Alice in Wonderland. In this case, however, the label on the bottle would say “Drive Me“.

We also filled up with fuel, had a drive in the country (birch leaves are looking yellow in places and most fields seem to have been harvested) and had tea and cake. I continue to have poetic urges and was also able to give Julia a brief taster of my miniature medal presentation.  I have the framework and now I need to finish the slides and photography before making the final notes and setting up the display stands. I should have time, but I know from experience that it just melts away.

Julia said the presentation was boring, but added that it wasn’t my presentation that was at fault, merely the subject. It is, I believe, good to have honesty in marriage, but not too much.

I am going to use Cormorants in the photos today, to balance up the swans from yesterday.
