Paston is working up a head of steam leading to the Big Weekend atarting at 10.30 tomorrow. On Leap Day (Feb 29) I attended the last library session and was astonished to find 18 people attending \u2013 far more than the other three sessions put together. I didn’t hang around for long \u2013 just checked with Lucy that the quiz and survey I had put together for this weekend were OK.<\/p>\n

Then yesterday evening it was out to Dayspring again for a trustees’ meeting with an additional member \u2013 Rebecca Matthews – who I believe is from the local tourist organisation and who might become a trustee. She certainly knows a lot about funding. We discussed forthcoming events for the year, which left me feeling rather exhausted. I need to get writing monologues, dialogues, songs and poems. Meanwhile we have to hope the weather tomorrow and Sunday is as good as it has been these last few days.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I visited my aunt Josephine in her temporary abode at Cromwell Court on Cecil Road, and after taking her for a short walk we sat on a seat in the sun for a while. She’s keen to get home and independent again, though it will be difficult for her. The sudden loss of her friend Joyce means that she’ll be on her own for more or less the first time in her life. She’s a strong woman, though, and good to talk to.<\/p>\n

Today I made my second visit to Sudbury in a week because my brother Phil wanted to pick up a bike he’s ordered online from Halfords. He doesn’t like driving on his own. Took us some time to find the shop, because it was wrongly marked on the map, but we eventually tracked it down. Not too bad a trip really, though I’m not feeling 100 per cent. Think I may have a slight infection. Again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
