Son no. 2's move to Brampton is done, with a couple of extra furniture items collected this morning and unpacking in the afternoon. All ready for an induction to his new job tomorrow morning.
The drive back to Yorkshire over the A66 was "interesting" in heavy rain and strong gusts of wind making the XLWB van wobble quite a lot.
SWMBO decorated the now-emptier house with Christmas stuff whilst I was away - something I wasn't sure she'd be doing as she has a seriously ill parent on the palliative care pathway.

Time I banked the fire for the night and trotted upstairs to bed via a nice hot bath.

Morning.
Grey out but dry.
I have been resting , taking it easy these past 4 days. I think I must have some sort of a bug which has made me woozy and not with it. I'm feeling a bit more with it today and plan to go to Bath to do some Christmas shopping. I wonder if I will survive?

I grew up in a Victorian terraced house, only heating was a gas fire in the living/dining room and an open fire in the front room we didn't use the front room in the week but after work on Friday my Dad would move the telly into the front room once us kids were in bed and in winter the fire would be laid to be lit Saturday lunchtime.
My bedroom was the little 'stuck out the back' room and I was no stranger to ice on the inside of the window and whilst we weren't exactly 'poor as church mice' but neither were we well off. Most of my clothes were 'hand me downs' from an older cousin and Mum and Nan were experts in unpicking old jumpers to be knitted afresh, worn sheets would be carefully cut and turned 'sides to middle' sewed together on my Mums old treadle Singer sewing machine and I didn't own a pair of socks that hadn't been darned (some multiple times)

Good morning from Suffolk where the greyness continues. Still damp underfoot from yesterday, but at least it's dry overhead.
Coffee has been had and it looks like I've missed yet another bin emptying day - recycling by the bin lid colour the neighbours had out this morning. I had a quick look at mine while the coffee was being made and there's plenty of space until the next round in a couple of weeks time. If it stays dry the plan is to get out for at least a couple of hours of fresh air and the domestics can wait until Tuesday at the earliest.
