The organist librarian

To Tamar's and Seán singing the African song! We went to Kew to see the lovely orchids and I saw a couple I used to know at Battersea Park library. We had lunch "sharing is caring" says he! He had the playground to himself and Climbers and Creeper. I said 5 minutes. When we were leaving he said I didn't get my 5 minutes! When he went down the slide again I found a Crunchie in the buggy pocket. He said "Where did you get that?" That would be telling says I. We arrived at school to find Liz and Ciaran had gone. I went to St John Caterham to play for the 7.30 service. Took 90 minutes on trains and I was early. Small elderly choir but a fine 3 manual. I know Jill Caudle from 10 pin bowling and Anne-Marie Garton from spiritual direction is the vicar's wife. Back at Acton by 10.30. Walked to school for Year 1 assembly which was sweet. Be still and Ciaran reading very well. I went to art. Watched Father Brown and Story of China. To Stratford to see fabulous Jo...

The 4 of us went to the Jersey museum which really is excellent. We bought a 4 for3 offer.We arrived at the gardens of L'Ouen manor at 2 which was good as it was the only day they were open. Had cream tea outside with strings of Jersey music service playing well. Lovely St Anne's chapel, think the flowers could have been more and better cared for! The house has been restored. We went to Le Noir Pre orchid field - lovely to see so many orchids. Louise had booked a meal at the Treehouse which was ideal with a children's playground and crazy golf. Had lobster pizza! Watched Antiques roadshow.
