Thursday 9th January 2020

I started thinking overnight about how many people just accept decisions made by authority because they don’t have the strength or the knowledge of how to challenge them. That is a very sad state of affairs.

We walked Ellie along by the river. The first part is being dredged and dumped on the side of the river. I am sure that can’t be very environmentally friendly for the next year or so.

In the third picture, far in the distance there are some more men in orange. They are working just opposite our house, the other side of the field where there is a stream. As we progressed along the river we realised there is something major going on, as Sandwich is full of Southern Water and Thames Water lorries. According to their websites when we looked there is nothing going on!

We went into Canterbury and dropped some donations off at the shop, ones that Queenie had given me. I have more to take on Monday. I also have a cash donation from Rosemary.  Mal published a book for her and she said as he wouldn’t take anything for doing it, that the money could go to Demelza.

We then went for lunch at Chom Chom. Mal does like his dessert!

We then bumped into Lauren (Demelza joint manager) and so chatted to her. She will be working Mondays in future, she has swapped with Jack.
