I waved my grandson off at 05.30. He is about 26 **. He did a 2 month tour of Asia (Thailand etc) and few years ago.
During the tour he struck up a friendship with a guy from America and that guy is now touring Europe. Grandson is going down to London to meet up with him. A different world to my youth were North Wales was an exotic holiday.
**Sue used to mentally log all birthdays and years etc.....I am hopeless at it.

Looks like rain all day here 🙄
Daughter home….dropping her at a pals for lunch whilst we mosey about Melton, then we are all off for some comedy music in town tonight. A venue we’ve not been to before (the Soundhouse). We have suitably low expectations, but are also meeting some pals so it should be fun 🤣

The Comedy Festival began last Monday: loads to see….dozens every day in a huge number of venues. We have about 10 things booked. Arthur Smith cancelled for Sunday though - mobility issue 😳
Ian Stone last Thurs - a very funny fella, look out if he puts a show on near you 👍
What is it the old Readers Digest used to say? “Comedy: the best medicine” - good advice I have followed since reading my parents in the 70s 🤣
