Aide-Memoire

Today’s weather was balmy and warm with a gentle breeze.

Over lunch I watched the recording of last night’s thrilling rugby World Cup match between Wales and Fiji, after which my reading of R.L.Stevenson’ s stories was interrupted by Jackie’s giggling while working on her laptop. In response to my enquiry she replied with a question about whether I remembered a particular garden we had passed some years ago. She had no idea why it had suddenly popped into her head. She couldn’t recall where or when this had been.

I was in the same boat, although I could remember many of the images, a woman pleased to show me round, and what was on the opposite side of the road. I may have mentioned that the blog is my best aide-memoir. When I have the right search word I can often find what I am looking for.

This evening, because Jackie had made two pies yesterday, we all dined on the second, with fresh vegetables, with which we drank the same beverages.
