Sunday

On Sunday, we went to a garden centre near Glasbury called the Railway. It is very popular because they have a restaurant that does lovely food. So we got there just before 12 noon and Rod bought us all a traditional Sunday roast of beef, Yorkshire pudding, roast and new potatoes, cauliflower cheese and other vegetables. The roast beef was very thinly sliced and absolutely delicious. Then I had a dish of strawberry ice cream while Rod had rhubarb crumble and custard.

I wanted to get the flowers to fill Mum's cup and saucer so we chose some primroses. I wish I had taken a photo. So unlike me!!

Then we had a lazy afternoon, and Rorie rang us from Japan. He sounded very upbeat despite being very busy at work and suffering from a very bad back since before Christmas. It got so bad that he went to hospital for a check up, but couldn't really make the doctor understand what was wrong. He says the pain is in his back, but the doctor was only interested in his neck. So at the moment he is using tiger balm (?) which he says has greatly helped. He is going to also have a deep tissue massage and perhaps try acupuncture. If that fails, Rorie is in Paris at the end of the month for a conference and he might try to see someone there (or even pop over to London).

He and Azusa had been to see Let It Be, which is a show about all the Beatle's albums with lots of songs from each one. He said it was the most amazing show he has ever been too, despite paying a fortune for seats that were right at the back!!

We got back here just before 9pm and I was so tired by then, I just unpacked what I had to and went to bed!!
