Year: 2022

How nice it has been seeing people with smiles on their faces all weekend.  Long may it continue.

We walked Ellie across the fields, not so warm for June and a bit of drizzle.

Mal was at the allotment a lot of the day  doing a lot of work before he returns to work on Wednesday.

Thought for the Day – “A happy soul is the best shield for a cruel world.”

We walked Ellie and then started making some sandwiches as Lou, Rhys and the kids were coming round for afternoon tea. Ollie made the cakes they brought with them.

We had a really lovely afternoon.

After the tea we walked the dogs over the fields.

We had to walk the calories off! Rhys had a cold and so wasn’t feeling too good and had even taken a test before he came but it was negative. So many people have colds at the moment.

Thought for the Day – “Do what is right not what is easy.”

We collected the table/chairs etc from the street party. Mal had a committee meeting about the Community Centre. Even if I say so myself I had the brilliant idea that the Community centre (was Phoenix) should be called the Jubilee Community Centre. It makes sense in Jubilee year and in Jubilee Road. He put it to the committee and they loved the idea BUT I am sure further along someone will claim it as their idea, so I have kept their email!

How spooky, I was just going to send a message to River when the postman delivered this card, thanking us for their wedding gift and for attending their wedding, how lovely! :

and so the Daniels carry on!!

In the evening we watched the Jubilee Concert and very good it was too.

We walked Ellie and met up with a couple of this afternoon’s street party organisers walking their dogs. Everyone seemed in very good spirits.

It was a lovely sunny afternoon. The party was in Jubilee Road, not actually our road and very few from our road attended!

In the evening we went into Canterbury.

We were there to see the amazing Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. It was a really good show.

I went shopping early, thank goodness I did, the queues as I drove home were ridiculously long, both to Westwood and the coast. Well, it is Bank holiday!

Back home in time to watch trooping of the colour.

I found this, I lived in Palmer’s Green in 1953, lots of memories here!

Mal and I were discussing the dates and decided we ought to have another celebration next year, 70 years since the Coronation!

We walked Ellie over the fields and today we did get wet!

Jackie and I met up for lunch and I was trying to think of somewhere different we could go, so we tried the Anchor at Wingham. We later wished we hadn’t! I ordered the Sea Bass and was later told they didn’t have any. Jackie chose steak and kidney pie which was awful, overcooked, burnt and the meat was rock hard, the broccoli was cold. I went and told the bar staff and they gave her a replacement , by which time I had finished mine and the replacement had no gravy. Not a pleasant lunch! No way were we bothering with desserts. We won’t be returning.

This used to be such a lovely pub. So many places have changed.
