A job

I am working in a bookshop for the Christmas period - I love it.

Albert is cooking ......

A new phone

Albert has bought me a new, all singing and dancing phone for Christmas.

I am allowed to use it now so perhaps he will forget this purchase?

Working

Back from a National Trust Break planting trees and building footpaths.

Albert missed me.

A hobby

I wish Albert would collect stick insects or similar instead of re-arranging my cupboards and furniture.

Tape recorder ready

I am interviewing a 87 year old umbrella maker tomorrow .......

Four jars

Only three jars of onions to pickle now!

Dreaming

It is many years since I retired, so why did I dash out of bed this morning convinced I needed to make a stationary order?

Busy

Making Christmas cakes and pickling onions tonight.

Albert is away at a football match.

Back from filming

Back in time to celebrate Albert's birthday - I am taking him out to lunch and bought him a bottle of champagne.

I forgot (not really) he does not like champagne and may have to drink his share - cheers Albert!

Casting

I have been called to film as an extra in a stately home in Yorkshire- whoopee!

See you on Monday Albert.
