Hello again, Dearest Reader. Summer has drifted away to be little more than a fond memory and Autumn has definitely kicked in. Layers of clothing are appearing... Any ways first up, cold and coughs continued to mess with my days, but at last this bout is done. It was a major annoyance for about 6 weeks now. With just three pay days left until Christmas, plans have been hatched and the first purchases made - Jenny is very organised, but it is good to say that we have had a couple of very fruitful trips - slightly naughtily they have produced some nice additions for us, but most Your Honour have been for family and children So, what else this past month.... ? On Saturday 13 October, we popped down to Tilgate Park in Crawley and had a really good day with Layla, Sarah, Matt and Molly <more here> This first break of the school year gave us a varied few days - 22 October, it was off to Bracknell Discovery Centre and a walk in the woods A bit of science with buttons to press and handles to crank, nice wooded walks and a lovely picnic. What is there not to like? <more here> 23 October, Bluebell Railway and Sheffield Park. My first time on the extended Bluebell and another nice stroll around a beautiful park. <more here> 24 October, Wisley - first time this year with autumn tints - just beautiful. Although on the downside, the gardens were packed and the Room On A Broom trail pretty lame. <more here> 25 October was booked up for a major dental appointment (2 hours) in the afternoon for prep work for 2 broken uppers and a cracked crown caused by biting down on something but I really don’t know what. I doubled it with a mother care visit which frees up my weekend. Jenny and family were otherwise entertained at BirdWorld. The only thing I will say about Brexit is that I am appalled that there has been no progress on a deal in over two years since the fateful referendum result and that so many politicians here in the UK are brazenly parading their agendas that the People’s Decision (not mine, personally) is essentially being ignored. The MPs are elected to serve their electorate and are just not doing so. It makes me sad and will disengage generations from the very politics which affects their daily lives. I was in Redhill recently and found an old favourite which took me back to Happy Days. Sadly though not a Five Boys chocolate bar, a very "Joyous Remember". On which note, I should pack up and get on.
Until next time, my Friend. Let's be careful out there... Pip.... pip!!
