Family, Books, Litter and Footy

Been a busy action packed few days. Friday was a special day for us as it was the first time all the family had gathered together since our two grandchildren had arrived. Absolutely wonderful – little Ellen (now three weeks old) was much more alert and Owen (now ten months) was his usual charismatic self. Looking on how our incompetent government continue to be slow off the mark with the pandemic we may find we will have to have restrictions imposed on us again so it my be some time before we can meet together again.

I have just finished reading 1,000 Ships by Natalie Haynes which had me totally captivated. Those of you who know me well will know how much I love the Greek Myths – well this book was basically The Iliad, the Odyssey and other myths relating to the Trojan War focusing on the female characters. Certainly has given me food for thought for future Story Tellings.

Involved in a community litter pick today organised by Esther (aged 14)!

My football team rather ran out of steam yesterday but still managed to win.We were surprised to find we are now 5th in the league! Have to temper that to point out 7 teams are on the same number of points! We are really chuffed. COYH!!!!!
