Tess, I have only just seen the last bit you wrote about your neighbour. I hope the wall is down now, and the foundation removed. I would keep a note of any threats he makes to you in case you need them in the future. He doesn't sound a very nice man.

Ann in Tenerife.

It all seems okay now on the wall front. However, work has come to a standstill, once again.
I am consoling myself with a hair-do tomorrow. (At a very specail price of ONE POUND!!)So it's not all bad news.

Hope to go to The Central Library afterwards, to get some books and do some research.

Next week I am going to a special birthday bash. My aunt (by marriage) will be 100 years old.
She is a really super lady, still living at home, doing her own cooking, and making clothes for dolls. A true inspiration to all us young pensioners!

Went to my local college last week, for a hair cut and finish at the very special price of ONE POUND!!!

It looks quite good too, so it was a very good morning.

Then went to the (nearby) library to do some research return a couple of books and get a few more.

Well, was checking a couple of address's on the Electoral Registers.
Families I was looking for not there.
Looked in a few books for a photo of The Blue Coat School in Birmingham (pre 1928), couldn't find one (I know I have seen one in a book somewhere).

Got thirsty, so hunted in my bag for my bottle of water, I had left it at the Hair Salon!
Gave up and went to the lending Library Section, used the self-service machine to get five books plus one that the machine didn't recognise, so had to get it stamped at the counter ... making six books in all.
Got home very tired, so had a rest before going out again to vote, all went well at the Polling Station!!!

Next day sorted through my bag of books, only had four, after searhing everywhere, just to make sure, I realised that I had left two of the books at the Library!
Phoned the Library, the books have been taken off my card and are back on the shelves. Thank goodness.
I think that it was just one of those days, but at least I got to vote.

just a good job that I have learned to laugh at myself. (I can keep myself entertained for hours!)
