According to our inside/ outside weather station, it peaked at just over 27 degrees centigrade today. Was certainly very hot.
We started the day by popping out to spend more money 😉 Morrison were still doing air beds, so I’ve now got a single and double airbed for our hols. They also had a deal on camp chairs – two for £10, so we got the last two. Result! Big W was not nearly so exciting – although I did get my paper trimmer so that I can do my ATC preparation. We went out for tablecloths and things, and we didn’t get any of those. Might pop to Dunelm mill stores at some point, if I can fit it in.
Back home, lunch and into the garden. Very hot out there – so I thought it would be a good idea to put up the gazebo. One hour later – they are *much* easier to put up if you have two adults. (Dp had gone for a nap.) However, successful in the end. Rang the parents and asked if they wanted to come round, they said they would. Grandad said that he had a map for dd – had been ordered for the office, but were slightly faulty, and had never been picked up by the company, so when they had thrown them out, a couple mysteriously found their way into various ppl’s cars – he told them he had a granddaughter who would love it. I expected something largish and maybe laminated – what we’ve actually got is like this only better, as it’s got flags on as well! Brilliant.
Right, had loads more to say, but too tired to type straight, so off to bed now and will finish this in the morning.
