Looking For Rainbows.......

 
The week started well with England winning the Euro quarter final on penalties over Switzerland. I do find them very frustrating to watch so hope they play better in the semi finals. 

It's been so wet here but we were still surprised by the giant slug walking up the french door glass.

I'm always so grateful that our NHS keep regular checks on me following on everything that's been before. Sadly they've now discovered I've another cancer, this time in a lymph node. I've been referred to Oncology but told as it's been found so early it's very treatable. Keep everything crossed for me please. 

Had a special request from friendTF to be out Wednesday evening as usual, even though friendM is away. I know Hubby and friendFF would probably have preferred to stay home as it's England v Netherlands in the semi final. The five of us had a lovely meal and the restaurant was relatively quiet. After that we normally go to the pub, however as it has about seven huge screens it was jam packed, the snooker club was the same. When friendP listed all alternatives we realised they would all be showing the football and have nowhere for us to sit, so we went back to friendP's house, he made coffees and we watched the second half of the game in comfort (actually friendTF fell asleep) and England won. 

Thursday evening neighbour/friendA and friendV and I went to our local theatre where a local am-dram group performed this. 

Two of FriendA's granddaughters are in it, but always part of the crowd scenes. With a multitude of costume changes and all the leads having really good voices singing songs we all know well from the original 1960s film it was entertaining, however, all three of us said it wasn't really our taste as it was so over the top, all cast had broad fake American accents and only a few of the very large cast seemed to get the limelight. 

Not my photo but taken by M when he performed at the Ipswich Music Day last Sunday. His set ended with a huge thunder storm.
