Catch up from across the water

Today in London I had coffee with a friend that have known since we were both 13. We met at boarding school in Toowoomba! She is visiting from Australia. Now well aged and lovely with it(!) we are both on second marriages and the mother to daughters...she has one. Great to catch up and we had one of those moments when one realises that amazing things happen in life.

Then had lunch with Big J - news about his trip was not so promising at lunch time, but that had changed by dinner time....mmmm

A quick trip to see Ava and her lovely mum. At six weeks (Ava - not her mum) she is alert and more stable! Lots of squeezing went on.

Home on the train to whiz the hoover around, a bit of child collecting then my sewing bee friend and I sat and worked for a couple of hours. Lots of sewing in threads on the back of the blanket, some last minute blocking and I am thinking, as we hope Ava and family will stay with us in just over two weeks, that there is now a deadline.

Also changed the blog background a bit, the colour lends itself to the warm days we have been having.
