Good morning to you all, a very still morning this morning, and I am off to play in the ladies day competition at bowls. The men prepare a lunch (and a very good lunch I will add) for the ladies, and we play each other through-out the day. I just hope it does not get to hot, no chance of winning! Had a lovely day yesterday; lunch with friends of many years, all getting older, but still able to enjoy a chat and a laugh, not sure how much longer this ritual will last. Travelling through the Sussex countryside on the train was a sheer pleasure, the downs are lovely this time of year.
