Catherine and Tanya, and euchre with Beth and John

Up late and Lorraine and I off to The Geese (full of honkies) to meet Catherine and Tanya. Lovely to see them both. I always come away feeling uplifted and mentally stimulated by seeing them. We had a good Sunday lunch in the pub, and talked for several hours. Pleased to hear that Catherine and Alex, who I introduced, are doing great things together. Catherine is now a Yurt keeper, and has run courses. Catherine how has an office, jokingly known as CPHQ. Tanya has plenty of work now as an Indexer and Editor, having embarked on her business in the last year. Tanya and I were sat by the open window, with sun on our backs, and what with that and the music, and the large lunch washed down with a couple of beers, it felt a very good place to be.

Lorraine and I walked back home, then unaccountably fell into a snooze. In the evening Beth and John, all glowing after being at the beach today, came around for supper, and a game of Euchre before running off for the 5b to take them home, just as Beth and I had taken a lead, over the more competitively-minded team of John and Lorraine.

It's lucky we live on the same bus route. And so to bed. Lorraine has two days to go before the school closes. The Tobster flying into Blighty tonight, looking forward to seeing him.
