Tuesday.

Been a nice day, weather and everything else. This morning motored over to Thorpe Morieux to deliver a clock movement I've been working on, to friends. Putting clock movement back into case (it's a long case clock) with Hugh's assistance, when I realised that I'd not put the pendulum aboard. Ann and Penny then drove back to our home to pick up the pendulum, whilst Hugh and I worked on clock, then relaxed with G&Ts. When the ladies got back we completed the clock, set it in beat and started it. We then had what Penny calls a 'soupy lunch' with them. This consisted of home made soup and  bread,  followed by a very good cheese board (they'd just got back from France).  Drove home after lunch, and shortly afterwards the above flower arrangement was delivered by our local florist from all our children and grandchildren. Around five o'clock  our friends Brenda, Warren, and Helga  dropped in for tea, birthday cake, and to wish your blogger many happy returns of the day.  After they'd gone, we decided at around 7p.m. to walk into town and eat at a local pub which is trying to establish itself as a restaurant. Very good it was, too.
Must knock off now and clean a pair of shoes ready for tomorrow, which promises to be another fairly busy day.
Goodnight all.
