I&#8217;ve been plagued by this minor virus which keeps coming and going and sapping my energy. Not that you&#8217;d notice, since my energy is pretty low anyway, even on a good day. This picture is of my lovely grand-daughter Amy, who I baby-sat on Monday while Daddy tried to work upstairs. We had a lot of fun &#8211; quite tiring fun, but fun. Both children are thriving &#8211; Oliver shows signs of being a competent horse-rider after a ride on a pony recently.<\/p>\n<p>I seem to have been going to hundreds of meetings recently. If it&#8217;s not the district church council, it&#8217;s the parochial one, and if it&#8217;s not the chess club, it&#8217;s Archant. The last one scores extremely heavily because of the excellent buffet, plus the opportunity to meet old friends and acquaintances. This year saw an attendance by a number of yompers.

Lovely lady: she was always upbeat and self-effacing.<\/p>\n<p>Last Saturday went to a session about the Enneagram, which would have been better without the questions-cum-conversation from the usual suspects, which disrupted the structure. However, I think I&#8217;m a 5 on the personality scale (this is not a score). Of course I may not be&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The skies have been largely blue, though the temperature has been a bit erratic: yesterday was very warm, but today there&#8217;s a chilly wind &#8211; even some rain at breakfast time.
