There was a big article in The Guardian this morning about the closure of Samaritan’s branches, particularly the Worthing one which Adrian is involved in.
This has all been a lot of work, and there was more today as a result of the newspaper piece. You have to make the most of these things when they happen. Meanwhile, Macc was also busy dragging a huge stick round the field as part of his walk.
While Adrian did more Samaritan’s stuff, I went shopping. First stop was B&Q for an extra hosepipe, then an abortive visit to the nearby Pets at Home. Next was Tesco for a big shop, and then I tried Chester’s other Pets at Home, where they had what I was after. One of the things was a surgery recovery suit, for when Macc has his op. It’s better than a cone of shame, and he can try to get used to it in advance. They’re supposed to be tight but we’re wondering if this one is a little too tight. We’ll get the next size up and see how they compare.
Macc can now jump onto the sofa unaided, and it’s become one of his favourite relaxation places. He always sits very nonchalantly, often with one elbow on a cushion.
Today’s forecast rain hasn’t arrived, but it’s been much more breezy and very chilly. Still probably better than the thick fog, though.
