Dot has been very busy: on Monday she did a church school inspection at Ellingham, on Tuesday she wrote the report, and yesterday she started off at Hapton School, moved to the Bird in Hand at Wreningham for a swift baguette and drink with me, then on to the Diocesan Office for a 2pm meeting, followed by a visit to Catfield School and collapsing on the sofa at home. I have been making vague preparations for our Welsh holiday, cooking some jacket potatoes for the Tuesday Group and buying some new sunglasses. Not simultaneously. I also seem to have fitted in arranging for a new church service leader to take over on August 1, when everyone else is away, writing a new poem and keeping various websites up to date, as well as writing a chess article for <em>En Passant<\/em>, the Norfolk chess magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Today we had the first rain for some time, occurring roughly ten seconds after Dot and I started doing a bit of gardening to put something in our hungry brown bin. It didn&#8217;t last, though, and tonight it&#8217;s warm again. I&#8217;ve checked the car over and bought some new sunglasses (early birthday present). Spoke to Pieter at The Langleys today, and he&#8217;s very concerned about Andrew&#8217;s condition in hospital: apparently he&#8217;s sedated and hardly makes any response at all. He&#8217;s going to keep an eye on him, but I hope we&#8217;ll be able to call \u00a0in on our way back from Wales.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An odd week.
