Just a little work on the Priory Doom planning project this morning with Mike Pope and Fiona before joining Diana and the girls on this fine, sunny and arm day for a trip to Wickstead Park, where they enjoyed themselves. Then back to sweep around the pool before their evening swim. The US Senate is now backing the nuclear arms treaty, Syrian troops are welcomed into southern Beirut searching for Western Hostages and a Dutch cargo ship carrying dangerous chemicals has sunk in the North Sea after a collision
Was tired when Di woke me up this morning and then did a little work after breakfast on a couple of letters to HDC. I had a couple of prior replies today that put me more in the picture and I am learning fast. Spoke to Fiona of Priory Doom today and also Mike Pope about local planning issues and floated a suggestion that Mill Lane be planted with oak trees to create a visual boundary between St Neots and Little Paxton. Before lunch, I had to give in and join Diana and the two girls for a trip to Wickstead Park and the rides there. We arrived in time for lunch in the restaurant and then had a good old time with the girls enjoying themselves. Daniel stayed at home to study this morning and skive this afternoon. Later this afternoon I had a mug of tea, swept round the pool before the girls jumped in and then did a little reading tonight.
I managed to complete my scan for press cuttings. I had got Little Paxton Cubs into the front page of The Express, as a picture anyway. News today is of the US Senate backing the nuclear arms treaty and President Reagan will sign the treaty into law before the summit with Gorbachev. Syrian troops have been welcomed into the Beirut southern suburbs by the locals, as they search for signs of the 18 missing western hostages. A Dutch cargo ship has sunk in the North Sea, with its cargo of dangerous chemicals, after colliding with a tanker. One crewman is missing and another airlifted to hospital with serious burns. Today has been a fine, sunny and warm, day, but after a fine night and start to tomorrow, it is forecast to cloud over and rain later.
