starting tomorrow,
Maggie kindly said she would water our Venus fly traps, so to save her watering lots of pots I put them all in one tray in the hall, I also left her plenty of RO water,
as tap water kills fly traps,
and here they are,
a couple of close ups,
with only one exception they have all grown remarkably well, next the fire alarm company called by and tested the building's fire alarm for its 6 monthly check, all was well,
after that out of the park,
and onto a number 54 bus to the shop, I had a empty water container that needed filling,
arriving home time for a read,
Diana had left me a chicken biryani,
which was delicious, 'Cheers!',
onto a number 354 bus to meet Steve, in a stroke of good luck I noticed a 227 bus about to join the main road, so I alighted at Big Catch, Beckenham's fish and chip restaurant, and caught the bus to Penge where I meet up with Steve in the Moon & Stars for a few pints, we chatted the night away until it was time to say farewell for a few weeks as we made a move to our homes,
I was lucky again with the bus, a 227 arriving just minuets after we did at the bus stop, off of the bus in Beckenham and past the church,
in the graveyard the cyclamen still looking nice, I just beat Diana home who was soon off to bed as she has a early start at her last day at work tomorrow before our holiday, for myself one from It Ain't Half Hot Mum, before I too was off to bed.

Dear John and Alley, many thanks for your kind thoughts, Diana has worked so hard to fund all of this, and I can imagine booking flights and hotels from the Philippines must have been a nightmare for her! She has done so well, I am really proud of her, as she is with her British passport!, best regards, Stan and Diana.
