TVs and Quizzes

Woke up at around 6.30 a.m. but stayed in bed for another hour before setting off to the 8 a.m. early morning Eucharist at St. John's. Normally I would have attended the Praise Service at All Saints but Tom was playing football at Barry's Field in the first Badger League match for the Clarendon Juniors Under 13s against Dinton. I also had to deliver the membership packs to all the parents. Tom's team won 7-2 although Tom didn't score any goals. Sara and Mary came up to watch part of the first half and then went off to Tesco's to do the weekly shop. Back home, Tom had a shower and I fixed us some lunch - chicken noodles and curried rice. Once lunch was over we set about setting up the new TV which we had bought and moving the existing one into our bedroom. Mary and Sara returned just as I was finishing setting up the old one in the bedroom. We now have two TVs with digital input so there should be less disputes over what should be watched on the digital channels. Eventually the kids will be able to use the old TV in the family room for a full range of TV stations, games and DVDs leaving us with a smaller one in our bedroom. Klynn came round on my invitation and we went to Grateley to play nine holes stopping off at The Plough in Grateley for a quick drink before returning to Winterslow. Sara cooked us a chicken casserole and we played a few games on the new TV. The children are delighted with it. Tonight I, Klynn, Jeremy and Richard formed a team for the Pub Quiz at the Lion's Head and won again. another bottle of red wine to add to my collection of winnings.
