Catching up and getting back to normal after the election, clearing out the swimming pool and updating my journal as Sally came round to photocopy thank you letters for all of our helpers
It was a Bank Holiday today and a chance to catch up on some work without meetings and other commitments. I spent this morning doing some chores and then clearing out the swimming pool which had been rather deserted recently. There was quite an accumulation of debris in there, the level had got quite low, and the filters needed a good clearing out. The weather was so cold again today such that I could honestly say that I was not missing the boat too much but there is milder and wetter weather forecast for soon. I spent most of the day in my office catching up on the last week's journal. The final exigencies of the election campaign had taken its toll and there was no way that I could attend to my journal on a day-to-day basis. Once I am up to date, I always feel the better for it. Sally came round this afternoon and photocopied the invitation, and thank-you letters to all of our election helpers who had worked so hard in the campaign. They are being invited to a barbecue at Keith Seiler's house in Offord on Saturday 18th May.
