The best laid plans.....

Yesterdays blog shows the great plans I had for last night. I had agreed to meet my buddy at the lottie and then to go onto the Railway Inn for a chat and perchance, a small libation. On my arrival at home from work H prepared a couple of Gin & Tonics. Well that hat was the end of the plans. H and I went and sat on the patio and chatted. Then onto a light tea [dinner to you southerners] by which time the appointment at the Railway was looming.

Once I made it as far as the rendezvous with Steve I was ready for the outing. We had very convivial evening. A major part of the chat was about where we are going to get our hedgerow fruits from this year and what we would do with them. The front runner at the moment is Sloe gin or Sloe vodka. We might do Damson Vodka if we can get enough Damsoms. I have this idea to bottle the Sloe Gin near Christmas for presents. Steve told me where I can get small, fancy shaped bottles. I have to run my daughter to Devon to stay with her cousins this weekend. A four hundred mile round trip. Steve gets to go sea fishing at Aberystwth. He has promised me and few Mackerel went he returns. I look forward to that!
