Dropped kids off to school then over to Thames for a lesson in the wonderful winter sunshine. Driving up in Downley, we looked down over the town and saw a pall of smog hanging over it. As the afternoon drew on the clouds drew in, bringing mucky misty weather which eventually succumbed to heavy rain.
Took Sophie down to the Job Centre. She really is exceptional. She went for an interview. The manager of "Pumpkin Patch" stated that she could not offer anyone a job, but was so impressed with S that she would bend the rules and offered her the place there and then. Brilliant!
I went to Currys and Comet & finally John Lewis to get a new camcorder. Lovely little piece of kit (Sony). So much nicer than the old Canon, though I did feel guilty as I had to do some nasty damage to retrieve the old tape from it. Still, it was probably beyond economical repair. Almost everything is these days. If they break down you either have a guarantee or you bin them. It's a long day from the time when the man from DER was a regular visitor to our home.
ps Stupid spellchecker.... doesn't recognise the word "bin"!!!!
