So the weather today reflected the sombre mood of the remembrance parade and service. The service was held as usual in the school chapel, the children (young people) we as usual excellent. 

Prior to the service there was music from the school pipes and drums, with an excellent piece by the drummers. The Scottish dancers gave us a few dances too. Then after the church service the whole school was on parade, the rain started just as they had all stopped marching. 

Back home now, still miserable outside but nice and warm in the house.

"So ......" 

Oh no, TG, don't say you've succumbed to that grammatical abomination! 

At least on here one doesn't hear any rising cadence as a sentence nears its end, as if the speaker isn't quite sure and it comes out as a question. Seems to be a lot of that around in the last few years.

An easy drive to Warwick and a walk to stretch our legs. Just letting the wine warm up a bit.

 never was a good student, is that not allowed  

I'll let you into a big secret but you must keep it to yourself, I hated school 

OH's pacemaker op has been rescheduled for this week! Her emotions have been all over the place, understandable but it certainly takes it out of you. It's been like walking on eggshells.

Went down to North Berwick today, it was beautiful as was the ice creams!

Almost nothing beats an ice cream at the seaside, Robsail.

Best of luck for your wifes op.(for both of you).

All the best for your OH's op robsail. I hope all goes well.

So glad to hear that your OH is beginning to feel better Helen.

Your day at your grand-daughter's school sounds excellent Tammygirl. I am glad the rain held off for most of the time.

I had a wonderful day shopping in MK with daughter and grand-daughter yesterday.  Lots of eating and chatting as well but we did make a good start on the Christmas shopping. I am feeling rather tired today though. Result!!  Daughter has said that they will host Christmas day and son will host Boxing Day so OH and I can relax and enjoy Christmas although it will feel very strange. We will catch up with the NI family in the New Year.

OH has 2 appointments tomorrow, first one at the GP surgery and the second in the afternoon is a scan at the hospital. We are gradually ticking them off.

We decided to go to Evensong today as it was a quieter and more reflective service.
