What a difference a reasonable night's sleep makes. we were both up and breakfasted by 0800 . I had steak and eggs courtesy of Maria and they were lovely.
Wednesday is going to be our busiest day visitor wise as it will be the longest after Chemo, and therefore I should be at my best.
Our first visitor was Charley and her son Jack. He's two and is a lovely little boy.
They were followed by our good friends Ian and Paula, from Blandford. Paula arrived with supplies of a cakey nature. I'm not sure what exactly as Maria dealt with all of that, but judging from the noises in the kitchen they were very well received.
The rag and bone man (yes they still exist) passed mid morning and I was able to get rid of some scrap metal as part of the clearing out process.
Maria's son Jason turned up for lunch so we all went over to Pompey to - yes you've guessed it the HKTB - three days on the trot for me.
This was followed by a visit to the Chinese supermarket to stock up on supplies and then home for a cuppa.
In keeping with clearing clutter, Jason took a load of shirts with him when he left as they are now to big for little old me, as he has a chum who is the size I used to be.
Ian and Paula departed with our best wishes and gratitude for their friendship - good stuff.
Tea time saw the arrival of our last visitor of the day - Dan one of my work colleagues from Fleetlands.
It was good to see him and, in keeping with the spirit of the day, and as he's passionate about Reggae, he left with all my cassettes from various Reggae artists from 20 - 30 years ago, both famous and obscure. He was chuffed and I lost another bit of clutter - a good deal all round methinks.
Again another very tiring day - in bed by 2200 - but wonderful nonetheless.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
