post olympic blues

1 minute read time.

Well we are now firmly back to earth after a fantastic two weeks – back to bargain hunt rather than the joys of greco roman wrestling and all those other sports in which we have become experts. Making the most of our Olympic tickets was one of our targets, when I booked them Ray never thought he would still be here to actually go- but go we did.

With the end of the sport we have also seen the last of the sunshine for now, hopefully it will return shortly. We did manage to make the most of it , and yes Jan, we definitely got to enjoy a couple of glasses of chilled white wine in the garden.

Ray now has a major project underway of revamping the garage, bearing in mind this is a man very close to all tins lined up facing the same way, you can imagine the trauma of having to reorganise all his work tools. Needs must however as the existing flooring needs to be revamped ( who knew a garage needed so much attention, but apparently it is generating too much dust for the pride and joy that is the LOTUS).

We are now two weeks away from the next scan so the usual storm clouds are gathering on the horizon.

    Hi we also very much enjoyed the Olympics as couch potatoes. I was a volunteer at Horse guards Parade and the Mall but only managed one day as my husband's health deteriorated and we had to come home. We are now looking forward to the Paralympics. It must have given you a boost as it did us.
