A trip to Sipsmith from Christelle. It was fun and it’s lovely to spend the time with Christelle.

I had another period and another bout of cystitis start this week (it’s been about two weeks since the last of each, peri menopause sucks) so I called the GP and got antibiotics. I’m thankful for that because seriously, I live in a marvellous age, but it’s a difficult picture. However, on the way to pick them up, I noticed that the sign on the train was a bit confused. ‘Please mind the gap’ and ‘Cockfosters’ portmanteau-d to this….

We’ve had very unseasonal weather but on Tuesday it rained hard, the trip from the train into the station at Ealing was ‘fun’ but I’m thankful that I didn’t need to water the plot and thankful that I’d remembered my umbrella….
