8 May 2007

Very quiet bank holiday weekend, during which the weather changed, becoming wet after a month of rainlessness. Monday itself was very wet indeed, and we stayed in. During the two days I put together a poetry booklet containing 14 poems, designed to go with the Open Studios exhibition coming up later this month. The book is called Off the Map and has been put together entirely on my computer, using Word. So not exactly professional, but I think it looks pretty good, considering.

Today I installed my new BT Home Hub, giving faster Broadband speeds. Went surprisingly easily, but I encountered a problem trying to link Dot’s computer to it and wasted an hour of David’s time trying to sort it out. In the end I stumbled by chance on what was wrong.

L came round to discuss how to lead a service (her first time on Sunday), arriving at the same time as Dot arrived back from a day’s work – first inspecting a school at Mildenhall and then at a training session. We’re now awaiting the arrival of this evening’s guests, who I suspect will be down from 12 last week to about four. And that includes us.
