It's one being organised by our Village, and the aim is to help us get familiar with the bus routes we can catch easily from here.
Because, maybe at some point in our future, we won't be able to drive and will have to rely on buses.
Forward thinking and all that.
There was also a bus trip planned by the FBG's for this morning, which I was hoping to join in on as well, but it's now been cancelled due to the the weather. (rain on and off)
I hope the Village trip isn't cancelled as well? I suppose if it is, we will be told via a text this morning.
In the meantime, I will get into Crabby Quarters and work on the next cot quilt... and hopefully the fabric isn't shit, and sews up nicely.
ONWARD...
Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
I just finished another cot quilt, then thought, SHIT! I really should have made it wider. Grrrr.
So, it's a narrow cot quilt, or a wall hanging.
I put polar fleece on the back, first time I've done that.
I need to have some lunch, then put me face on, in readiness for the bus trip.
Which I keep expecting to get cancelled. We had a massive downpour just half an hour ago, and now? It's back to friggin sunshine and roses. 😖😊
But it was a nice outing, I got to chat with the 10 or so other people from our village.
AND... at one stop my granddaughter Emily hopped on the bus! So I got to see her and have a catch up. She got off at Chartwell Square, while we kept going until we got back to our Village bus stop.
It's Thursday, so once Stew gets home from work I will drop him off at the pub, visit the kids, then join Stew for a drink and hot chips. Our 'normal' Thursday night then.
8.05 pm, just home from the pub. I had a very pleasant hour with our friends at the pub, always nice to catch up with everyone. An hour is just the right amount of time for me!
Time to sign off for the day, catch ya tomorrow.
Oh that’s so neat they’re doing the bus trip .
ReplyDeleteHopefully it’s gone ahead and you’re back home in CQ

A bus ride in the rain sounds relaxing.

ReplyDeleteThat’s a gorgeous cot/wall item.
ReplyDeleteHow neat to catch up with Emily, and bus trips will be good to suss out routes times and areas.
Popping in to say good morning.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the bears woke up from hibernation overnight and had a birdseed snack. A bear bent over the metal pole and brought the entire feeder down to appropriate snacking level. Jethro did bark and "tell us" about the bear. I don't think Hubby got a good photo though. He was a bit groggy at 3:30 am.
