Steve and David do the Ivy

Reading time: < 1 minute...

A full-on day today! David popped round and we spent an hour or so removing the ivy from the front of the house (a job I’ve been putting off for ages!!!). Then it was off to The Trading Post for lunch. David hadn’t been before, but Ann and I went there around 10 years ago with Lynn. The car-park was bursting and when we got inside, so was the restaurant – I think everyone from Kettering over the age of 80 was in there! And it was easy to see why! – £14 quid for lunch (and that included drinks), a really good team of staff, all chatty and smiley (and actually making conversation with the customers too!), plus a really good atmosphere! We were well impressed!!!

Then, it was into town to pick up a few bits and pieces – guttering, aerial cable, paint for the porch and that other essential – chocolate!!!

Phew! – time for a RPAN (retired-persons afternoon nap!)

Steve Palmer

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!

I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
