Thursday

Photo shoot for Ben's card took all morning. Made the worst ever shepherds pie for lunch. Strimmed all afternoon on the bank behind the Grange. Bartie arranged fights and car hire so that we can go over to meet Ben. True to form the minute he'd got it arranged an estate agent rang with a viewing for next Wednesday. John and Maureen came round this evening and have agreed to open the house up for the viewing. At least the outside looks good, hope the prospective buyers are just looking for location, location, location.

Breakfast: 2 slices of toast and butter, orange juice, yoghurt. Lunch: egg fried rice and a tin of tuna, yoghurt. Dinner: 2 hard boiled eggs, roasted red pepper and salad. Weight 64 kilos.
