Day 349 Friday 14th December:

Today I took Catherine to see Jayne. Cath had got loads of presents to take and loads of bags to bring back. Caths partner Mark has a niece who is due any time and Jayne was sending her loads of baby clothes and the rest of the crib she has given her.
Jayne was on her own as she had worked last night and Leo had taken the children out so she would be able to sleep. We had to go when we did as Cath is working tonight. When we got there Jayne was lying on the settee with her quilt over her and Jasmine the dog lying on top of that keeping Jayne warm. She hadn't gone upstairs as she has hurt her back at work and is finding the stairs difficult. Cath turned on the heating for her and we left her to get some sleep.
On the way back we went to a meat warehouse and I bought a turkey roll and a piece of Gammon at a very good price. I know the meat will be good quality as they supply the catering trade and have just opened to the public.
Claire came round in the afternoon  and we made arrangements for what we are doing over the next few days.
While we were doing this Roland was over in York helping Pete to board some windows in a house that had been on fire. Pete had been asked to do the job as there was no one over there to do it. I assume all the boarding companies over there are busy boarding up flooded premises.
I feel so sorry for every one who has had their home destroyed and will not be able to celebrate Christmas at home.


Health
 
I take the multi vitamind on the right and Roland takes the fish oil on the left.

  1. The floods have been bad, we are an hr away from york and the springs around here have popped up and flooding fields and gardens. Luckily we arent near any rivers so are ok.

  3. Like minds again eh!! we are so alike!!

    We never think about the floods until we see them on the TV. The rain hasn't stopped here tonight and is heavy too. you are right there are many homes in a bad way, We have discovered a leak in our roof. Put newspaper and a plastic tablecloth and more newspaper over the 'drip' so will see in the morning how bad it has been tonight. hopefully we can do something in the New Year!!

  5. You have a money tree Viv and we have a money plant. For whatever reason it looks like they are completely different species.
