Catching up at the Boston Tea Party

Tom was involved, this morning, with some Duke of Edinburgh Award preliminary work in the form of orienteering and walking in Bentley Wood with his school.  He, Doug and another were taken by another parent by car, early this morning, to the Tytherley Road Gate of Bentley Wood and Sara did his paper round.  Later in the morning, Sara and Mary went into Salisbury and I picked up the lads from Bentley Wood at 12 noon.  They were thoroughly muddy and Tom somehow, despite the expensive purchase of waterproof army-style boots) had soaking wet feet.  Doug was picked up from our house at 1 p.m. and I spent the next hour cleaning my thoroughly filthy car.  This afternoon I met up with Sara and Mary and our old friend Anthony at the Poultry Cross in Salisbury and we spent a pleasant couple of hours chattin in The Boston Tea Party with Anthony bringing us up to date with what is going on at our old company and generally chatting about what we are all doing and our dreams for the future.  Sara managed to persuade him to buy a Calendar which he will be taking to Dorking to show some of my former colleagues in the hope that we can get some more sales there.  Tonight we had a fairly lazy evening watching television until about 11.30 p.m.  Such a very dark night tonight with heavy cloud and no moonlight until later.
