Odi and crew are coming back from France today and will be joined here by an old lady who has nothing to do with them. The old lady will require a bedroom of her own which means some of the others (do we get them to draw straws?) will be displaced to a tent in the garden. The boys may, of course, leap at the option of sleeping out. We'll see.
Ben has a tent and we have a tent. Ours is brand new- bought in anticipation of this eventuality. It's made of very thin plastic and cost us £13. We thought we ought to know how it works so we put it up this morning.
First thing that happened was the cat went and sat in it.
Orange tent, orange cat. They were made for one another.....
The old lady is Keith's friend. That's Keith who kept the Meeting House going during the post-covid crisis and died last year. She used to visit him in Eastbourne and wanted to keep coming- and we said, "So stay with us". We've only met her a couple of times- once at the funeral- and hardly know her. We warned her that we'd have a full house over the Bank Holiday weekend and she said, "Sounds like fun"....
