Day trying to rest from tiredness with a headache all day as I try to catch up with reading,to struggle with Homelink on-line finance, work with Peter on the moles and then drive to Ely for an auction viewing after grounding Daniel for misusing his stereo and an early night as Reagan continues to plan the German cemetery visit and Prince Charles/Lady Diana decline a breakfast and morning mass with the Pope at the Vatican after an intervention from the Queen
Awake with a headache after a disturbed night as Della kept Diana awake. Breakfast of toast as usual and then up to read the morning paper. Washed, dressed and out to the birds – 9 duck eggs today. To the office and the morning reading and catching up on a pile of magazines, journals and daily news sheets on computer affairs. By lunchtime, most of them finished and I break to have a ham pie salad and ice cream to follow. The moles have been active again and Gardener Pete puts down another two smoke pellets and we hope they solve the problem. An afternoon completing my sort of papers and then paying a few bills – school fees, water rates etc. – but the £1,000 is still frozen in the Nottingham Building Society. and I could not use Homelink yet.
At 4.00 pm I left by car for St Neots and to meet Daniel from school. He is wearing his personal stereo and, having disobeyed us in this respect, will lose it for a week as a punishment. We went to the Fisher’s Yard hairdresser together, but it being late and the queue being long, we decided to leave it for today. Daniel home by bike and me off to Ely to view the items for tomorrow’s auction. The silver is disappointing, but I am attracted to a few items. I leave at 7.00pm as the lights go out in the hall and make my way home for tea with a throbbing headache, which is virtually a migraine. I forego all else and go up to bed. No idea about the news today except radio stories of Reagan continuing to plan the German cemetery visit and Prince Charles/Lady Diana declining a breakfast and morning mass with the Pope at the Vatican after an intervention from the Queen.
