Dear All,
Well the dentist did not go according to plan. She looked at the
offending tooth again and thought there might not be enough left to cap, so it
is a matter of waiting to see whether the nerve dies and the temporary filling
holds. It was all a bit of an anticlimax as you tend to get psyched up to visit
a dentist.
Tuesday was again busy as we had “Potatoes” in “Just Vegetating”
then I had to address the Women’s Meeting on “Turkey – Ancient & Modern”
while Kate caught the train to Hove. In the evening we had a landmark Church
Meeting altering the rules on communion.
On Wednesday I had a swim and sorted and catalogue the current batch
of seed from Suttons for Moldova.
Kate stayed over in Hove so that she could return in daylight
stopping off in London visiting St
Pancras church, Camley Park and the new “Institute of Sexology” exhibit at the
Wellcome Collection.
On Thursday I had the final visit of the season to Wisley to judge Swedes
grown in Devon, a last sowing of carrots and plan next year’s trials. RHS
meetings are much more difficult these days as they are trying to reduce both
the number of trials and the size of judging panels – neither of which is
popular with the committee.
I travelled down with Tony Hewitt who lives near Spalding. We
managed excellent time down to Wisley in 1.75 hours but took exactly twice as
long coming back mostly due to an hour queue on the M11 due to an accident.
Tony had a 15 hour day.
I had a new experience on Friday when the guided bus I was on tried
to overtake another which was parked at Longstanton and managed to shatter it’s
back window while removing our bus’s wing mirror. Neither bus was then operational
and as they were both full the passengers over whelmed the next three buses.
I more or less finished winter digging yesterday and planted out
winter lettuce before attending Over 2 v 0 Cottenham in a feisty local derby.
Today we are celebrating David & Rebecca’s 10th
anniversary – time flies as ever!
Love
Mike & Kate
