After getting the DVD orders cleared we dropped them at the post offic3e then called at Kwik Fit to see what had happened with the PMP van which was still in their yard but the chap with the garage nearby was arranging to get it towed round to his garage and should be able to report back on Friday. The weather outlook is so varied it is hard to find a week for our Ireland visit so I might do Belfast as a day trip by air from Manchester or Liverpool, perhaps even similar with Dublin then we would be able to concentrate on the other bits later and also get some time to visit Dunmanway and my O'Grady'O'Sullivan/Driscoll family in West Cork.
After the garage we continued on to Southern Cemetery the cemetery people had recently cut the grass and done the road edges, the Hardy plots looked in good order considering we haven't been for a while. The main memorial looks startling in clean white marble and the Hasting memorial look much better after treatment, the Robert Joseph memorial will get treated next, we already have the liquid to do it. We put in geraniums at all the plots and tidied up and strimmed the grass etc, looked really good. Tidied up around the Hardy memorial bench and cleaned bird muck off, needs another dose of varnish on our next visit. Then we popped in to see Trish and Derek at Sale, Trish has now made a splendid recovery from the fall down the stairs and broken vertebra. After a brew and chat we went back and I got cracking caulking the new door between office and showroom that should have been done by the builders and other blemishes which have appeared over the years since the office was added behind the then garage. All the furniture is pulled out and ready for painting to start, we've had a good clean and treated the edges of the carpet that weeren't accessible when the carpet cleaners came. Its all a bit topsy turvety at present so that is enough for tonight as the desk is a bit squashed in, not comfortable for typing. Wednesday is our second fasting day each week but sweetened by pineapple and dates! Comments are closed.
