It was another enjoyable get–to–together.
One topic of conversation was the annual task of choosing next year's trip away. There was no clear consensus - we don't want to fly from Heathrow, some don't want Gatwick; do we think Ryanair will be trust–worthy enough? Kathy is adamant she will not go to Amsterdam for some reason – has she some dark secret from the past? Is she scared of tulips?
So the only conclusions were: no one has objected to Valencia and we could go to Copenhagen if we trust Ryanair.
When Geraint turned up, we learned that his opticians had been burgled. Thieves had stolen half his stock of glasses. Police are looking for a short–sighted, one–eyed man.
