WE ARE ALL WET NOW BUT MANDY'S CAR IS FIXED

An earlier start more than getting up for the kitchen chaps as we had to get Mandy's Honda Jazz over to Ellesmere Port for them to fix the scratch we got going up to cousin Marks last month and some other minor chipsd on the front. It wasn't too bad at that stage and it stayed dry for a while as I went to get my hair cut before we left the port and has an Eccles cake and coffee at Marks & Spencers , Mandy bought a new top. Then back home where the builders were banging away in the kitchen, the missing piece of the jigsaw should turn up from Germany tomorrow. When we got home i got stuck int listing the remainder of the 16mm films, there is about 130 of them scheduled to go live at auction on Ebay next Saturday which should be sold or not by the time we return from Malta. We leave here Saturday.

I've also made a start on outstanding DVDs with covers and discs now done and on our shop page for the two Nottingham albums. I'm starting on Bournemouth next. We are also having short rests watching the soaps on catch up. When we returned to Ellesmere Port this afternoon to pick up the Honda all hell broke loose with the weather and there was lightening as well, huge patches of flooded motorway and multiple pile ups around Chester. Back home more rain but not too heavy, tomorrow I'll put the still sodden walking boots in the green house and see if that speeds up the dry out. I've had a look on the net for better waterproof kits for the charity walk. Last night we agreed on the film night which takes place at Plumley village hall on 8th September. I need to get a poster sorted out for that and start the process of assembling the programme to last two sessions of 45 minutes. Continuing the look back at last week I have put up some images of Poole.
