B.Wiggins has been full of himself having been the star turn in the Archers last Friday. Well, that`s my fantasy anyway. He has been with daughter J again last weekend and that included a day in London where he was photographed outside Westminster Abbey, Horseguards Parade, British Library, Trafalgar Square Lions and the Moomin Shop in Covent Garden. Meanwhile I was up in Newcastle for the placing of a plaque to commemorate our Julia beside the river Tyne. She died nine years ago but is still remembered, which is so heartwarming
There were plaques for nineteen others which included Alan Shearer, Cardinal Basil Hume, Sting, and Professor Higgs of Higgs Bosun particle fame! We had a good little `do` given by the Gateshead and Newcastle Council, and I had three lovely days with my dear family.
My spanking new bathroom is now fully operational. I had a wonderful turn out of the bathroom cabinet and threw away all the remedies and potions, most beyond their use by date, and now only have paracetamol, a thermometer,and a tin of sticking plasters. All you need really.
I am at Brighton today looking after grand daughter T and her friend. There is no school as there is a teachers strike. Her dad is on the march in town. The girls are making biscuits and a mess but they have sworn to clear it up.
I will take B.W. home later and he will have to settle down to a more mundane existence after all this gadding about, and so will I
