Tackling jobs

Poor Sophie went back to work today as she wanted to save as much holiday as she could. I spent the day tackling the laundry piles, unpacking and putting everything away. Writing this blog took up a fair amount of time as well! Keith popped to Tesco to get some essentials and it was back to deciding what to have for dinner for the next couple of nights. Something with vegetables, definitely!

At least the weather was lovely today, with blue skies and sunshine, and I managed to dry some of the clothes by hanging them in the conservatory, where it was lovely and warm.

By the time Sophie had returned from work everything was done and apart from the stash of wines on the worktop in the kitchen, you'd never have known we'd been away. 

Keith cooked a delicious chicken casserole with dumplings for dinner, and after we'd eaten Vikesh came around to see us. Sophie had brought back lots of goodies for him and his family and he was delighted!
