pop-tart anyone?

A weekend gone and what to show for it?

A jigsaw completed! A piece missing. I search the floor but all I find is a dead fly.

I think the reason I was able to complete this so quickly was because it was grocery products from the 60s and the brands and logos were all very familiar. Some long gone now but others still going strong.

What else?

Writing a talk and preparing for leading writing group tomorrow.

I'm glad I didn't get up to watch the rugby, Wales playing Japan in Japan. Wales lost, their 18th defeat on the trot. I don't remember a slump as bad as this. We haven't had a proper coach since Warren Gatland left - was encouraged to go - in the middle of the Six Nations in February. And those in charge, getting paid lots of money, don't seem to care.

But glad we did go to GrandSon1's 14th birthday party on Saturday afternoon. Good company, good food, good fun. The house we're renting for the family holiday in Cornwall in a few weeks has a snooker table, and we're planning a family championship, so I take every opportunity I get to practise on the grandsons' small table. Needless to say I got thrashed. I did pot at least three balls though not necessarily the ones I was supposed to be aiming for.

Sunday morning church very good. Monty on fire! Did a bit of gardening in the afternoon as I was in need of exercise. This is why I should wear my gardening gloves.

It's just easier to feel if you're ungloved. 

Wales Air Show this weekend, just down the road over, over the bay. A bit cloudy so while in the garden was driven mad by hearing planes - possibly Red Arrows - and not being able to see them, or even work out which direction I should be looking in.

This morning I've been practising a talk I have to give next Saturday afternoon to a group called Torch Trust, of blind and partially sighted. Oh yes, and my printer broke down. Actually it stopped a few weeks ago but I did my usual trick of leaving it alone and waiting to see if it would work next time.

And then I worked on adapting a safeguarding policy template. I couldn't convert the original pdf to Word to work on it so had to copy, paste, amend. Oh, yes, and I received an email telling me my website host details needed confirming. So had to go through the what's my website id/password - and because Outlook isn't working for me I had to go to my bt account and get the reset, before I could get on to the host and check my details, which didn't need changing at which point I realised I needed have bothered. 

I hate technology. (I don't really but it is very irritating on times.) And Microsoft is threatening to delete my OneDrive, which I didn't even know I had.
