8th November: Simon's first blog post

Sprang Simon from Rehab at midday, and straight home for lunch. It was a glorious day and we spent the afternoon under the verandah. I combined this with ironing and swimming while Simon had the occasional snooze. It turns out that I don't mind doing the ironing outdoors. We picked some nice tunes, my favourite this afternoon was an old collection by the Pretenders. Also discovered a small treasure: the original of "Money's too tight (to mention)" which I had always attributed to Simply Red. Not so. It was the Valentino Brothers and their version is just superb. Get downloading....
Mel phoned this afternoon, she has managed to sell our car (the Camry), well done, Mel. Another talent to add to your list.
Simon is happily esconced in his recliner watching Rockwiz - he knows all the answers before they have finished the question! Today he managed to find his way to this blog and has made his first posting! Scroll down a few days and you will find his message.
Thanks for messages from David McGladdery and Pernille, he really loves to hear from you.

Love Marian x

  1. We had another great November the 5th here is Lewes. Although I was working until 9pm so I could not take part in the parades. The fireworks were superb as usual and the weather was dry and not too cold. I loved the photos of you and Simon together. Oh, one question though - what's an iron?

    best Wishes
