Goodness, it's gone all quiet.

Middle one and HF and several of their friends are going to a party near us tomorrow night. So they're using us as a base. As a result there have been phone calls flying and arrivals and departures and unexpected calls for help from youngest whos babysitter let her down.
In fact it's been like Picadilly Circus round here today.
Anyway, they've all gone to wherever they're going tonight, Barney and HF have gone to the pub and it's only 9.15.
So actually there's going to be a hiatus now while I practice my fiddle. Had a lesson today and I so need to do something about it.
In case you didn't know, I'm really a magpie. Here's blue, from my hoard (there's not much gold in the hoard so I can't be a dragon)
Even bluer.


Right. done the practising (very satisfying too).

And the bread's ready, (the heavenly smell brought me down. I cheat though, we use a machine to make it)
And we had venison with gorgeously glossy gravy.

And yesterday I had this lovely, delicate little visitor.

Well, that's altogether quite a satisfactory evening. And it's only midnight so if I get a move on I might get to bed at a sensible time.
