Day 325 Woodbridge Sunday 18th December 2011

Hi folks,
A fine sunny day with the temperature nudging 25. A breeze from the north.
I mulched the standard roses, planted out the rest of the rhubarb and took the ride on mower for a spin. I tried to tackle some of the steeper sections. It is a bit too thrilling when you are mowing downhill with the mower in full reverse and it is still moving forward. Similarly when you turn a corner and the back of the mower does what in my day we described as a broady i.e. a tail slide. I will wait for the promised push mower rather than subjecting my self to any more excitement.
I left for the airport to pick up Susan at 335 and made such good time I was able to call in to Hardly Normals for 10 minutes. After 2 laps of the pick up zone at the terminal i resigned myself to having to pay to park and wait for Susan. I was inside the terminal looking for her while she was outside ringing me. We departed back to Woodbridge with a bonus being the parking was free presumably because I was there for less than time x, where x is unknown.
I chucked a beef roast in the oven with some vegetables for tea and Susan did a sticky date pudding. Ann knocked up some gravy. A pleasant tea although I did slightly overcook the beef.
We have now had our sunny day this week so tomorrow will be rain followed by 5 days of cloud if previous weather patterns are to be replicated. Have to laugh it hasn't rained for 4 days out come the sprinklers! or so it seems.

night folks

Simon
