I will see my future through varifocals

We had a play-date arranged for this morning. Dot 'n Dave were dog sitting for their son and daughter-in-law, and had invited us over, with the dogs, for coffee and a chat.

We had a lovely morning sat out in the sun and the dogs seemed to enjoy it too. The play did get a little fractious at one point, when both Hobson and Wilson wanted to play with Django. Django, on the other hand,, had had enough of two boisterous youngsters and made that quite clear. Overall they interacted really well and soon settled to a level of play appropriate on the baking sun.

In the afternoon we headed over to Alcester for yet another trip to the Opticians. I wanted to arranged for my prescription sunglasses and spare readers to be updated to my new prescription. I soon had the new lenses ordered, and was made aware that I really need to be wearing my spectacles all of the time now* ... I wonder whether that is why I have had a few headaches recently?

It was then time for a quick whizz around the supermarket before calling in at Botany Bay nursery for some bags of rotted cow manure.

We popped in at Mummy Sheila's on the way home, to drop off some eggs, and I ended up with yet another sonly duty.  A floor fitter had just finished in her living room, and I was roped in for a spell of furniture moving, before I was rewarded with a cup of coffee.

We eventually made it home, and I dug a bag of the manure in to the area of bed made clear by the recent removal of the Juniper.

That'll do for today.
