Just Another Week......

 

Hubby was quite excited as he had his first fundraiser for SERVSC this year. 

They would have normally set up taking as much space as they can. Coming forward with the big bikes and mini motos for children to sit on. The tombola always a good attraction and lots of volunteers ready to talk to the public and hopefully collect lots in the buckets. 

This time it was one small gazebo with back and side on to discourage people wandering in, no tombola and no mini motos and the front roped to the banner..... so they had their space for just three of them. A few people stopped to chat and a little money made it into the bucket so it proved worthwhile. 

Fortunately it wasn't too cold or wet for them standing around outside for hours which I thought it might be as I had the heating on at home. 

30th September is the anniversary of moving into this house 37 years ago with our two little ones just three and four years old. No drastic changes apart from adding an extension and the two huge trees that made me fall in love with the place have both gone, and I still love our forever family home! 

A lovely gift from Daughter arrived, a table top outside electric heater.  So now as the weather is getting colder at a time when we may want to start inviting friends for a socially distant garden cuppa we can without freezing. Thankfully Daughter was actually here when it arrived or we wouldn't have known who had ordered it. So so thoughtful 💕 

Then October sneaked up on us! 

Just four of us for Jay's Virtual Quiz this Thursday evening and we got our best score of 47 out of 50!

Two holidays cancelled sadly (not totally covid related), weather dreadful, virus gaining pace for this second wave, and nowhere else we need to be, so we're happy staying home warm and dry. 

Stay safe everyone.

47 out of 50! Well done!

And congrats on your 37 years sheltered in your dream home :-).

Outside socialising will need extra thought going forward. I am envious of your sheltered area! Great with the heater too. Lovely daughter you have :-).

And the joy of events such as the fundraiser can't be underestimated. Changes the weeks a little. xx
