Saturday 20th June 2026

I had a Sainsburys order, which included some groceries for Paula.

A walk with Ellie and then Paula and Gilly arrived to stay in their AirBandB in Deal. I had to collect them from Deal station and take them to the apartment.  It was very nice, part of a huge house in Walmer, not Deal!. They had assistance all the way down here as Paula is losing her sight and Gilly has bad knees and only one eye! I can’t say all the steps in the property helped.

Having settled them in, I returned home to collect Mal, back to collect the girls and then we went to Spoons . We sat out in the garden and had food and drink.

As the evening progressed, of course we had a lot to talk about, the garden filled up with loads of youngsters. By 10pm we realised we were the oldest people in the entire place! But I have to say the young people were all so nice and polite. We took Paula and Gilly back to the apartment eventually and then back home.
