Another quite busy day with getting ready for going away for a few days "up north". Sara brought in tea for us this morning - a lovely surprise. This morning I dropped Tom off for his football match against Hilltop - Clarendon won 7-0 - and came back home to start packing and deal with tidying up and correspondence before I go away. Sophie came round at 12 noon and Sara, she, Karen and Ruth went to Livery Road to have their photos taken for a promotion leaflet for the, by now, [in]famous calendar! See picture above. Tom didn't fancy coming to Southampton today to watch Saints v. Swindon (usually one of our "bogey" teams) which is a pity as Saints won comfortably with a 4-1 result. They still remain fifth in the table after today. As I drove into Southampton (along The Avenue) I was greeted by a massive hail storm and torrential rain. Fortunately, it had subsided by the time I parked at Trethowans. Lunch was a portion of chips at our usual chippie before the game. Tom wasn't the only junior not to come to the game today - in fact, only John's son was there - all the other parents were without their offspring so it was very much an adults gathering today rather than a family enclosure. A much busier day tomorrow, Early Morning Eucharist at St. John's and then a drive up to Bradford, Yorkshire to attend Maureen's Requiem Mass and Funeral.
