I'm such an donkey! Bought a couple of T-shirts online but was too careless to check the sizes and one has turned out to be XS. Too proud to admit my mistake, I'm going to take to the gym even more until the day comes when I can wear it out as a skinny-rib top!

A fun evening last night at the cricket club skittles evening. Half the village appeared to have turned out for the occasion and it was great to see our old neighbours, Rob and Sue, who were particularly kind to us when we first moved to East Harptree. No success at the skittling, but a good night had by all and a renewed determination to enjoy a successful season.
