Home again.

Wednesday already, or "Travelzoo day" as it is known - check it out - Kuoni have 13 days FI in Sri Lanka for £799.
Monday was a cold wet day; we stayed in & emptied the Noble chest in the lounge.
We are now of a mind that much of what I/we value is of little interest to the family & may as well be disposed of, hence somethings went back in, some went on the fire & the remainder is going to Bonhams on Friday.
If this is a success, we may end up with a "minimalist" look!

Yesterday, I went to the gym, shopped, briefly, in Solihull, then went on to pick up T & KP from school.
After a snack & drink, we went into Bicester, an unsuccessful attempt  to find a specific pen for T.
It was excellent in that we bought a pile of Wedgwood leaf plates that were in the window of  a charity shop, for a very good price - open to offers!
I did a sleepover & did the school walk this morning, before returning to finish the stories that we had not had time to finish  before school.
This took until 11.00am!!!
Quick shop in town, bag to M's, coffee & a nice chat with G, then home.
The diesel was 42.9p/l at Tesco!!!

G has cleaned the ovens - what a star!
A group of us from the churches  had a meeting this evening to discuss forthcoming events.
Great fun, actually - well directed functionality.
We shall have another scrum in a few weeks.

Scrum is daily, that sounds much more like a sprint planning meeting. (I doubt that the old dears sprint too much though)
Funny that you got rid of some "prized possessions" on the same day that you went to a charity shop and acquired some more!

Not gone yet & the new bits are tp sell on at a tremendous profit.
I need to set up an e bay account - the house will be empty in no time!
I was by far the most senior person at the meeting.
We can't manage a daily scrum.

How did "yawn" spend the day?
