1. Isla enjoys her first boiled egg and soldiers for lunch.
2. Since giving me a bird feeder and seed for my birthday, Doris has been most disappointed that not a single bird has yet to take any seed from it. Granny Anne says it’s because there isn’t enough cover around. At lunch she closes her eyes tight and makes a wish, ‘that there would be more cover so birds would please visit the feeder.’
3. Walking and talking through the timetable for Monday’s street party with the rest of the committee and giddily putting up ‘road closed’ posters after a glass of wine. Definitely a holiday feel already…
