Ely ?No

Monday to Catenians 6 of us, 5 visitors. No Dennis as Ann Marie was sick. Left early to go to Acton to avoid strike on trains. We got to Olympia in good time only to receive message from Louise that steam trip was cancelled. It seems the steam engine could not have got into ely stationa dn the diesel broke down. Offered discount on April trip. Had a quiet day at Acton watching the rest of "The Crown" which is excellent. Allt he plans to meet Fr John and play Ely cathedral organ after the carols went out the window. Watched Gareth Malone. Louise and Tom went out. Wednesday  Ciaran loved his nirthday presents especially the lego. Sean on good form with track and reading. Louise was home and Matt came about the extension works. I left early and got to Caterham early. Good organ practice. To Waitrose to get pain au chocolat and croissant. Liz had my passport so got later flight to Copenhagen! I played for Bakers undertakers carol service when all the names of deceased were read. Nice eats and spoke to 3 ladies who loved the church and organ. 2 people remarked that Jerry had already retired - he did not come in the hall. Took an hour to get home on buses as train left 4 minutes early and no Victoria trains.
